Re: Where did you surf today ?
Oh I’m very ambivalent about magic seaweed. Yet you seem to want to use it but don’t understand what it’s trying to tell you. Think of me as a mediator, a hostage negotiator. We’ll crack this, you’ll see
Re: Where did you surf today ?
I think the name says it all. I mean everyone knows seaweed isn’t magic (right?)

I understand it , I just think it's as useless as tits on a bull.
You don't seem to understand the reasons why it is offering useless information.
no matter, all the euros will be out there Friday on their epoxy Firewire getting pitched.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
It’s saying pretty much the same as all the other forecast sites. You just dismiss it out of hand because you can’t bear to be told by the hated Pom
Re: Where did you surf today ?
So, to be clear, 15.5 Pommy magic marshgrass feet will be 7.75 Aussie he man feet?

Currently, with few exceptions, automated surf prediction web sites do not over predictions based on local bathymetry nor specific local wind conditions.
Most surfers realise this and apply their local knowledge.

Surf Forecast has 10 stars for Lennox Friday morning with 9492kj.
Could you translate that into something for me Cranked?

not bhed, good size!
Re: Where did you surf today ?
Steve, I don't have any local knowledge for Lennox.
I read a few weeks ago that a prediction site in the NE US is adding bathymetric impact to their local model, and the organisation's responsible for the virtual wave buoys are set to halve the buoy area very soon.
They expect these two changes to significantly enhance surf site prediction accuracy.
As for the kJ, for what its worth, last years big Ulus swell was 17,000kJ

Re: Where did you surf today ?
OK, but based on those numbers what would you expect Cranked?
just ballpark.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
20' faces. A large swell acceptable and accessable for most of the local big wave surfers. So 20-30 in the line-up, rather than just the handfull that attacked the big Ulus swell

Re: Where did you surf today ?
I dunno but I hope it is big, I’m sick of these half cocked south swells with their fetches that fall over and point toward some other fcuken coastline.

Sure, if you interpret 20' faces as 6'. I support freedom of speech.
