Depends which wave of mine you saw.
Saw you get a couple, the beard spun me out. From a distance I was like how old is that cnut!
How did that hat look? Be honest, I was trying it out.

Why the Bra? Bondage would've been bigger, wouldn't it?

Yeah but not necessarily better. I surfed a bank in the middle there last three days which was really good but wasn’t really doing it today. Swell went more south today.

i saw both throughout the day. while working.
bondi seemed best on the higher tide later this arvo, 'bra on the lower just before midday
'bra was bigger in the nth corner then.

when i came home from the steam room, mid bondi looked pretty fcuken good, but hey, i needed to take it easy and unwind from a tuff day funding Trev's retirement.

tomoz i have the day off and i'll get out there earlyish which despite a forecast size drop, should still be ok i suspect.

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.

3 foot plus Wanda beach. Glorious south swell lines fanned by a gentle offshore westerly, peeling off down the line. Some flawless waves in the mix. Again surfed the old 6”11 pintail single fin. Fully addicted to the feel of it at the moment. Effortless glide, simple climb/drop lines and cutbacks.

Argh! It's going straight past the Coal Coast. Anyone would think I'm in Scott's Head the way it's avoiding the area

Wyre hates The Farm. Calls it a Dad's Wave.

It’s a dads wave when it’s small. Today it’d be a great mal or mid length wave.

At double overhead plus it can be pretty fun out there, and gets a solid bowl on it. At that size, often you’ll have it to yourself or with maybe a couple others. Because it’s usually to dad-wave go to.

And, it’s one of the only beach breaks around that can truly handle south groundswells, and the paddle out is cake.

😀 I don't hate the Farm, but you wanted to go there on Father's Day (yep Hatchy's, small south swell) All the cashed up tradie and boomer dads with their brand new HPS's, packed into the southern corner dropping in on each other in a nightmarish scenario of horror surfing. No thanks

HPS boards are mostly a waste of time out there. The shape of the wave better suits a longer rail line and less rocker. Have seen plenty of otherwise good surfers out there scratch around on shortboards.

Same up here first thing. And bizarrely, bugger all people (further up the beaches).
