A north easterly swell drags the water up from the ocean floor. Hence the colder water temperatures. (geek)

Thermal rashie has been very handy the last few days.
Had a really fun little session this arvo. Maybe the crew wS watching the Chooks get creamed but I got tons of waves.

I welcome the drop in water temperature. The slight chill is refreshing. It was like 23 degrees before. Like Queensland water temperatures.

It wasn't a southerly ...

I ditched the springsuit for a 1mm top and boardies this summer.

Not me. 23 degrees was wonderful.

been taking my daughter for dawn patrols to the pass.

it's been enjoyable- bit scrappy but 80-100 metre peeling sections everywhere.

I'd estimate the morning crowd to be 75-80% female, so by Cranked's definition you could say males are now a novelty at the pass.

@ braithy - Yeah but it ain't blue ribbon point break either.

Can't complain. The bank's got shape. The wave itself is just breaking a bit burgery in the conditions at present.

I prefer the south end when it's on. But it needs to be close to double overhead before it starts doing its thing.

Well there's a reason I spent a bit of time riding them out there. Still do from time to time, even when it's overhead
