The Bata Bay skatepark is probably the best in the state, central coast has got that going for it.

Was so shit down the coast. Onshore dribble and no banks. Went out and got 3 closeouts just to get wet. Water temp has dropped too since yesterday. Bout 19 at the moment.

Absolute shite for weeks. Had a great swim in the rain this arvo though at Bondi. Bronte has had heaps of weed for some reason and a very deep stretch right across the beach. Quite hard to get across it and onto the shallow outside bank if there's a bit of swell. Water seems to get stuck in there. Drove past this arvo and the drain was pumping out filthy brown muck into the north end.

How’s the water? Looked pretty horrid around NN and Warriewood. All lagoons are open.

Went down to Bronte. Some biggish lumps coming through at Tama. Decided to go for a swim in the pool as the water still looked dodgy. Plenty of crap on the beach including a washed up dead pigeon and a sanitary napkin. Pool was okay but getting a bit cloudy.

It’s brown and pretty gross. I’d say a fair amount of storm water and horrible shit. Plenty of weed as well

Water's brown, banks are mushy, waves are bumpy.
But better than a flat spell.

Been stellar the last two days down here. Headies had some absolute smokers coming through yesterday. I counted a bodyboarder in a barrel for 6 seconds. Outrageous! Today smaller but still throwing up some great waves.

I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.

Got some great waves on dusk.
Tropical rain, cleanish solid sets, flying down the line.
Caught a set to come in from big pine to the hut, onto the belly and straight in.
Best way to end a surf

Far out, I think it is already starting to come through. Gonna be a fun couple of days! I'm dearly hoping a good night's sleep will help my back heal and quick. Compressed it on a nothing wave today that collapsed on me.

Northern crew, how's it going up there?

I worked in tweed all day. Checked snapper at 7.30pm. Some nuts waves, only one guy out back. Then it went wide so the rest of cooly was a reform.
Didn’t check kirra. If I had time I probably would have had a crack at the bombie bank rights and lefts on a gun, snapper itself a bit heavy and critical.
