A few site's hyped Sunday as THE day. Guessing that didn't help.

Probably about the same at Bondi. Actually handled the size relatively well. Too crowded though. Managed to snare a couple of set waves but it was a battle.

Freshie. Pulsing and pretty decent right now
Re: Where did you surf today ?
North corner of a Royal National Park beachie at dawn. Three foot plus, pretty punchy but fairly jumbled. Started to sort itself as the tide filled in a bit and the offshore wind picked up
Re: Where did you surf today ?
Longy was crowded too, plus some aggro in the water. Not bad but pretty all over the place when I went out. An hour later the crowd had backed off and it'd sorted itself out a bit. Decent albeit fat lefts and rights.

Mid-north end maroubra. Four plus and heaps solid. Lots of shutdowns but now and again there'd be a good peaking grinder throwing up a length of wall. Surfed the new 6'4 single. Handled the conditions well. Heaps of hold and drive down the line.

Super rippy on the left at Bondi. Rip changing direction constantly. If you could be in the right place at the right time it was okay.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
well it was fun as fcuk up here yesterday, 4-6' in the morning, declining later in the arvo, and a really magical period not long before sunset - the wind dying and a bit of surf mist descending on the area, super pretty clean lefts and rights. The sort of daylight saving evening that would have driven shearer insane

Re: Where did you surf today ?
When did NC become a poetry hater? I once asked him in the Ask NC thread if poetry was dead and he waxed lyrical about it, seemed to be really into it. His latest, above, is a tad too Mystic Surfer for me. The title had me fooled into thinking it might be a more punky, modern.Cranked wrote: ↑Tue Oct 10, 2017 8:54 amNick "poetry hater" Carroll - his latest contribution, titled "Fun as Fcuk"Nick Carroll wrote: ↑Tue Oct 10, 2017 7:15 am4-6' in the morning,

I don't hate poetry! Just think there's enough of it already. People should stop attempting to write poetry, at least in public. Unless they fluke something good.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
Poetry should rhyme, let's just get the basics right before we get all carried away with it.
Re: Where did you surf today ?
MM is a noted member of the The Queen's English Society. He demands rhyme and metre in poems.
Members of the group, set up to defend the 'beauty and precision' of the English language, have turned their attention to contemporary poetry and poets, arguing that too often strings of words are being labelled as poems despite the fact they have no rhyme or metre.

Rhyme, much enjoyed by pre-schoolers and bush ballad fans.
