saw a mate I haven't seen for 20 years and met a real surfer at random fishing at Yamba.

good day.

The old bloke?

Really?
Don't imagine there's more than one Realsurfer down that way, even if he has had a couple of handles.

Compared to Trev it is.

Well, if it is him, he's been a grandfather longer than I have.

not old bloke.

Doesn't look like the swell got to sydney in any significant way today?
Haven't heard any reports.
Bendy was 6 ft plus easy around midday, solid, mostly of out of control. I watched it for half an hour, mesmerised by the too fast lefts reeling off down the beach, no takers. I heard a report that black rock was only 4 ft, which is weird given that bendy and aus pipe are both sth swell magnets in close geographical proximity. I was watching the swell sweep past, rising up on the offshore bombies, then settling again, heading for what looked like a direct hit at black rock. Strange. Period was only 9-10 seconds though, so maybe it was not enough to bend the swell into the nooks and crannies.
Driving home, Bombo was small, but it doesn't get sth swell.

Might have to wait for wednesday to test that many channels NC.

The banks at Maroubra can get fcuked.

Bad banks aside, you seem to be getting a bit more water time recently?

I am. They tend to be micro-sessions but I'll take what I can get.

Fcuken pretty as a picture this morning, swell building, only 3' but what the hell

10 channel ?

bondi was a good as it get's today at 2-4 ft. hardly crowded, numerous shapely banks, a sucky left rip bowl, in between a few closeouts, some nice long walls nearby too. wind not too troublesome, and almost balmy.

came home to find my street closed off because of a bomb threat at the nearby private school.
nothing political, as I've since found out. just a disgruntled, expelled student.

16 second period swell by Wednesday. hmmm.

Of course it is since I'm in California.
Moriah?
