RealSurf Surfers' Forum

I'm down at MR again, just about to do a surf check.

Hmm, lots of breaks have 5 stars, as it's Sunday morning I think this means 5 star crowds

Perfect conditions for a few reefs and points today. A few wasting their time at Ben Buckler. Bronte crowded. Serious carnage body surfing on the dredging close outs at Nth Bondi.

fuck I got duck dove by a massive seal!

sitting way out off the back bombie this morning, by myself, a big set had come through while I was paddling out and I was psyched, but then it stopped for a while. I was sitting out there thinking about fcuk all when the seal came rocketing over from the reef on a side chop and went right underneath me.

fcuken animals.

Ozzie Pipe. Not really working that well. Quite a few bogey boarders. Still pretty ok

Hatchman were you tempted. Was worth the walk in.

the real Aussie Pipe at Depot was off the fcuken hook today

@ Steve - Consistent 6-8 foot of groundswell at south facing locations

did you get a few Iggs?

There was fuck all up here.

Looked pretty solid on the open stretch today, Steve compared to what you’re saying on swellnet.
Nice strong lines.

yeah, solid enough close-outs on the beaches.
very slow and weak on the Points.
I didn't see a wave over 4ft all weekend.

and that S swell hype sure bought the boys to the yard.

did you get a go out Buddy?

How big, Buddy? I checked the Pass cam just before dark and it looked 2-3 ft and onshore. Crabmeat was much more accurate than Swellnet.

Undersized a bit early but solid 6ft once it went onshore but too long lined for the banks as well.

Nah, Steve, thought I’d let the gash in my head heal another day before getting in the water.
Still a bit filthy closer to the river.
But there were waves about.

6ft at Ball.
3-4ft at the Point.

long way short of expectations.

I waited 40 mins for my last wave.

it was slow. I mean slow.

Probably more fun yesterday.

Fri morning was way, way better, as was Tuesday.

5,500kJ/3.5m/16s at Mainbreak, too big for me atm, surfed a protected break with the masses.

Thudster is down there on any swell. He was just getting cranky at Nick for blowing up his secret spot.
