Re: Where did you surf today ?

Hardly surfed it back hand so interesting to see that Nice , what fins / system are you running ? Looks lik...

Re: Where did you surf today ?

Went for the early . Swell has jumped since last night . Farm was maxed out so went and joined a small crowd at mystics . Was a bit hit and miss but managed to get a few . Always forget how hard that place punches .

Re: Where did you surf today ?

After being on call all weekend I finished at 4.30 and hightailed it to the farm . Only took my eps 5'7 after seeing home barely breaking so seemed like a good move . It was a very solid , 4 foot plus with a high frequency of clean ups coming through , heavy south swell . A lot of water moving out ...

Re: Surf sales growth

Yes that growth sees an increase in wait time for customs also . Ordered a Chilli Faded 2 and the wait is 10 weeks . My board is ready ! I`ll pick up next tuesday - gives me a chance to check out some other models I`m curious about . Its been 8 weeks . I`ll confess I didn`t help the process with my...

Re: Where did you surf today ?

We`ve been lucky to get some swell down here this weekend . Hoping with the push it will put the sand back so no more big holes . One thing I have noticed too and so have a couple other locals , the crowds are right down . Surfed corrimal during the week and was the same . With our swell usually mos...

Re: Where did you surf today ?

Got up for the early , didn`t feel so good and proceeded to have the shittest surf . Couldn`t get into a rhythm , couldn`t stick anything . In the end gave up and slunked back to the car . On the positive side its always nice to see the sun come up .

Re: Where did you surf today ?

Decided to head down to Bendalong this morning . Lot of swell . A very frustrating session for me , just could not get into a rhythm . Poor wave choice and a very packed beach did not make for much fun . Some thumpings , kick outs in frustration before ending up with around a 40 minute sequence of w...

Re: Where did you surf today ?

Two sessions out the farm today 3-4 foot . Not so crowded for once but both frustrating surfs with no designated take off zones . Still got some good waves in amongst the crap with the morning being better wind wise . Surprising it was as big as that. So was I and a mate told me that only an hour o...
