It’s great to hear from you, Digger. So, your back is not great? How are the kids going? I don't truly mind if I think about it and I would not change a thing. I mean who gets to do what Ive done as a kid and as a old man, not many people. Im paying for it mind you, but no use sliding into the grav...

I nabbed a couple of smooth little point waves in the dark this morn. My first one was, well, hard to see. In fact i mistook the clouds on the horizon for the lip and stuffed it up! Need daylight saving to end stat, It got stoopid busy out there.

Great swell direction

Well Wyre, you'll be pleased to know that bank is still hanging in there. Was pumping for the late tonight. Hope you get the opportunity to catch it with some swell, it's producing some lovely waves. Awesome. Hopefully nothing too big comes through between now and the weekend to wash it away. Might...

It was absolutely pumping down here. Perfect swell direction.

I have a serious sea ulcer happening on my foot, but I just can't stay out of the water.

Fccckn pumping this morning, such nice conditions. Been a great run of swell

Looks like it is getting better and bigger, amazing looking lines coming through down here. I'm on child duty and am trying not to be distracted and grumpy

Awesome BD!! Can't wait to get down there on a couple of weeks. Hopefully the bank holds

Dropped off nicely for me. Scored some cranking lefts at the deep water bommie near me. On my Outer Islands 6'1", which is such a good paddler.

Apparently point is off it's head

Yeah my back didn't get hurt enough yesterday!

Ps- I'm hoping it peaks overnight

Yep, very solid. Not many options, it is absolutely heaving out there!

Surfed the point which had some good ones. Not as big there. Crowded, for sure.

Gonna hit a certain big left near me tomorrow morning, with my big old 7'2" 1990's gun.

Far out, I think it is already starting to come through. Gonna be a fun couple of days! I'm dearly hoping a good night's sleep will help my back heal and quick. Compressed it on a nothing wave today that collapsed on me.

Northern crew, how's it going up there?

chunk swell on the way gents, hoping for some blue sky and clean water, which maybe asking too much

Is that out the front from you BD? Looks amazing

Water's brown, banks are mushy, waves are bumpy.
But better than a flat spell.

Been stellar the last two days down here. Headies had some absolute smokers coming through yesterday. I counted a bodyboarder in a barrel for 6 seconds. Outrageous! Today smaller but still throwing up some great waves.

I won't be there after all, end of feb for me. Love the water temp down there at that time. Almost the warmest it gets I reckon.

Don't be a cnut BD. stay in town... or is it gonna pump down there?

Although these are for rotator cuff problems I think they encompass a pile of shoulder problems: https://orthoinfo.aaos.org/globalassets/pdfs/2017-rehab_shoulder.pdf This is good, thanks Cranky. Getting some shoulder pain, I think from initial weight session where I put too much loading, then surfi...

Today was outrageous. Headies at dawn on the high, 2-3ft and glassy, a cool mix of surfers and bodyboarders getting into it. As I drove home I checked my local and the north end was looking like a little indo reef break left, so I jumped straight out again for an hour. Unreal! Hasn't stopped breakin...

Sounds like I scored then!

Wasn't big, but clean as an OCD kitchen on the pushing tide at t'local.
Looked like paradise, just a foot bigger would've made it special

I reckon we should've been there yesterday.
