Ka Boom is about right for what ex Ossie is about to do to our good banks in SE Qld/Nth NSW at the moment!!! So when that longer range E'ly groundswell does it, there's not gonna be any sand left to surf these waves on!!!!

Looks like local winds may just spoil this parade anyway. And I'm not talking about when we have the shitty locally generated Ossie wind swell stuff either. I'm talking about when the real juice arrives!!

There was discussion of diverging swell predictions, which could put us in either option.
Cross your fingers and be ready to go.

SN: (cenny, sidders, south coast)
Monday 28th January
Large and powerful NE groundswell building from 6-8ft to 8-10ft across north-east facing beaches during the late a'noon. Open beaches building to 8ft late in the day. Wide-range of wind conditions varying from E to NW to NE during the day. Keep an eye on local obs.

CW: (cenny, sidders, south coast)
Monday 28th January
Larger ENE swell with possible small S swell 4-5ft with larger sets possible on open beaches. WIND: Variable light early rising E in arvo 10-15 kt

:| :?: :-?
Jesus fucking Christ. I have to say what a birthday present from the nature, but its a little bit to much..I told my friend yesterday, if I not show up in the evening I should died in the ocean. Seriously, I'll check the waves at the beach and then I'll decide. But I need an other board for that. With my shortboard is not a good idea. You know, where I could rent a suitable board for this day in Sydney?

I doubt reggie will

He has shown himself to be a man without honour

Steve, on the other hand, I'm sure would do an excellent job with filming. Providing that he can get someone else to do the music and can keep his bourgeois dalliances in check in the editing room.

Most time I wrote my own words in the Google translator in english. Because I like to say this in my own words and try to improve more my english skills. It's sounds stupid, but doesn't matter. And if not know same word or sentence then I can write this in german or depends how lazy I' m. Finally then I copy and cut that. This is the secret, why my english sounds sometimes stupid and sometimes perfect. But I have to say, if you write something in german the grammar is horrible as well...

The longer this goes on, the greater I doubt the authenticity. I've (seemingly alone) been questioning that although Claudia is a living thing, is she in fact SurfieC? KK's still in the mix. If I'm wrong, thank fcuk she won't be running me over with the oversized big swell weapon she's chasing. Maybe iggy has something suitable?

iggy, if you get her a suitable board and go surfing with her, I'll be convinced. It's the only way
