Where did you surf today ?

[Beanpole]

Actually paddled out and caught three waves in 15-20 minutes at Bondi yesterday arvo. One actually went all the way to shore

Considering how crowded it was and how many waves were coming through that was pretty good. This was really just a preamble for meeting up for a beer at the Pavilion anyway. First surf in boardies for the season. Water is warmer.

if i read one more fkn post of beanpole talking about his sessions at tardsville fkn bondi i'm gonna take a big fat shit in my pants and cry mammy.

surfed some chest high weak as piss wind junk at an isolated beach in national park. totally solo, with nobody else out. but if it was a sydney beachie, even in those conditions it would have had at least a couple of dozen punters.

Haven't had that much success going to Cronulla.

i'm guessing you dont surf any of the reefs there, but if you're striking out on the beachies, then you're probably hitting them at a wrong times. they're a southerly mid-sized swell gig. walled up, and down the line. certainly nothing magic, but if you like big long overhead walls to tear down they can be a lot of fun.

[Beanpole]

Sorry to make you cry Hatchie. Have surfed the Point a couple of times but I just tend to keep driving south if I'm motivated enough to get that far down in the first place. Plus used to have friends who lived at Stanwell Tops in the 80s so I have hung around that area a fair bit.

Like the idea of surfing in the National Park but it gets blown out even more regularly than the Coal Coast.

Few fun lefts at the bra if a little slow due to the strong offshores.

Got to meet my first realsurfer as well... Good to say hi Petulance

[Hatchnam]

petulance. did you drop in on loofy ?

[petulance]

Nice to meet you too, Drailed. I stayed clear of the Russian beginner on the Hypto.

Iggs, it was a party wave day but no drop ins from me.

[Hatchnam]

no drop ins from me.

good to hear you're taking off nice and deep then

[Drailed]

That Russian on that hypto was lethal.. I just managed to get a hand on his rail before it made a ding in my NPJ! Glad I didn't lose my balance... Nice little wave!

It was that kind of small day where "taking off deep" meant being as close to the edge of the flags as possible without the lifeguards getting on the loudhailer.

It's good to catch up with real surfers, I surfed a blown out beachie with cuttlefish up on the sunny coast yesterday. It was a good adventure & only 41 degrees, thanks Cuttles it was fun as always.

Real surfers should catch up more but I guess the forum would get boring if we all just got along and shared surfing knowledge and experiences

[crabmeat thompson]

I thought we were all cyclists who just sometimes frolicked in the water on hot days?

My little island in the South Pacific is starting to roll out of bed with signs of an early season starting to show. Last few weeks have seen some very fun 2 to three foot peaky A-Frames but still lacking some decent grunt. Swell direction is starting to change and the winds are being a lot kinder for a lot longer of the day! No problems with crowds though...

Surfed onshore shoulder high Wanda this arvo after a shite day at work.

Loving the new midlength.

The view from my tree house...perfect for morning swell and wind reports...Today's report...

Light Off-Shore
Sunny with a 90% chance of rain (because it rains every F^%ing day here).
3ft ENE Swell at around 10 Seconds.

[crabmeat thompson]

I might have to kill you now.

[steve shearer]

What could go wrong?
