Re: Where did you surf today ?

Re: Where did you surf today ?

Good one. I only surfed it once in 1982. Similar conditions. A few really good surfers among a Bondi of kooks. Was easy to score waves by paddling the beach and actively chasing down peaks. Couldn't believe how many people had no idea. Expected different these days
