I have surfed Lennox a couple times actually, last time was back in April 2011 or 12 I think.... 3-4ft, fairly crowded until a very large Tiger shark swam through the line up.... pretty much had it to myself after that.

Cronulla beachies. 3-4 foot. a bit too straight on the lower tide with a bit of a shit fight paddling back out. Got better on the incoming tide with peakier waves and less water moving.

A bit hit and miss but still fun. Managed to get a couple of barrels. One was a quick cover up on take off then kick off the back. The other was a walled up wave, with some arm drag and stall for the lip to throw over. Maybe 3 seconds. The rest was mostly gunning down the line then a shutdown soon after.

Would’ve been a better day for reefs and points further south if I had the time.

Not that close. A good five metres in it. Thankfully your leg rope didn’t snap, or I’d now be monging out at beanmong levels.

Then a late arvo session at north Maroubra. Burgery 3-4 foot left ripbowl. Overcrowded but only a quick session and still managed to get a few.

I think the peanut gallery needs to hear more about this situation between RS’s newest brine brothers.

To tell the truth eggs are one thing I avoid buying when I’m grocery shopping. So you may say I’m an intermittent egg buyer who usually lets someone else buy them.

He’s doing well for an adult learner. Put it that way.

Well I’ve seen him turn and his stance doesn’t appear overly wide or anything. It’s only two times I’ve surfed with him. Each time in shifty overhead tricky beach breaks. He’s going well considering.
