My heart pumps piss!!!!

Edit: just looked at the forecast and I'm not seeing the same as you mate. I'm seeing about 3-4ft+ mid period NE swell.

Feck there's some size there Ledge!!!

It looked like cornflakes to me....and weird part was that it was all inshore, dense/thick as all feck, so everytime you caught a wave from out the back, you'd land in the cornflakes......not a pleasant feeling.

We've got more wetness coming later this week/weekend also. And Steve, I've got nothing else to go on other than my gut feel and observations with the...

I wasn't referring to surf with my reference to changing of the guard. More so I was referring to the ENSO status.

I can think of at least two quality backbeaches that thrive in these conditions both of which have some good latitude to capture the most of the northern fetch.

I agree it ain't gonna be epic but for me it's a sign of the changing of the guard and that's what's getting me more excited.

Looks pretty consistent to me Steve!!!

And I'm a firm believer that the models under predict swells from these semi stationary high pressure systems.

what do you see Don? You keep seeing things I ain't. I still haven't seen what you were progging last week from the E. I'm seeing weak trades too far away and too far north, more spring troughiness and northerlies that never end. We've got pretty consistent tradewind swell coming this week. Sure it...
