Check out the 'Visit Noosa' Facebook page for footage.

Bower is out of control, maybe 10 foot close outs and surges all through it. Surges on the beach at Manly washing up against the retaining wall.

Steve, I think everyone gets that you don't believe Cranked about the amount of Aussies on the Bukit. Given Cranked seems to spend more than half the year there, I think his finger is on the pulse.
Perhaps the Aussies you are chasing spend their time in Kuta.

Awesome

Had a drive by Manly and Curlie this morning, same story. With the amount of putrid runoff, wouldn't have been worth it even if it was quality.

Mayhem. Based on the charts, can't see how it won't be at least 8 foot on the Iggy scale.

DY. Overhead in the beachies, good banks and bugger all crowds.

Crescent early for the low tide, back Plomer beachies with myself and 3 mates the only ones out as the tide rose, lunch, back to the same bank after lunch again with only us out and then 2 waves at crescent for the low again right before dark. 7 hours of water time today, absolutely shattered.

Have you ever been a part of the WW group based out of his shop? I was a member many years ago...

I used hang out there a bit in the late 90's/ early 00's..bought numerous boards off him. My user name comes from a particularly awesome 6'10" channel bottom he shaped me.

Local shaper has a good business model. He'll trade just about anything: half his sales would be good second hand boards. He stocks GSI, TSA and more exotic brands, and will shape whatever you want, and is a great guy to boot. I must have bought 100 odd boards, including customs, off him over 20 od...

My 2 cents, they take a bit of getting used to.. in my limited ability, it seems foot placement is more important, for avoiding a bit of looseness/skatiness on the bottom turn to getting the right angle into a top turn. Mine can take a way higher trim line on the face, very fast in a straight line a...

Still no sign if the swell, barely 2 foot at low tide for the late, and this at a south facing beach.

This 5 minute video of John John surfing in W.A. is intense fun. The soundtrack song, Blind Willie Johnson's 'Lord I just can't keep from crying' performed by the Barr Brothers, also works very well. https://vimeo.com/159564332 I knew Rabbit Hill turned it on and got gnarly but never knew it got li...

Been in Melbourne for a mates wedding yesterday. Raced down the coast and surfed Winki this arvo, bloody cold wind but fun.

Not for her it didn't. But it doesn't really bother me. If you've got it flaunt it especially as it doesn't look like Steph will catch up now. What does bother me about her is her and Kurt's approved building application from Warringah Council and the long-term ramifications on Pittwater residents ...

Watching a bit of the comp at Manly. Amazing how the pro's can make shit surf look reasonable.

Steven, don't go jumping the shark. There is no such thing as 11 outa 10. Thats the equivalent of 110%, and that my friend only exists in bad sporting cliches.

Maybe it's 11 Iggy standard.
So.............. 5½

Maybe he measured from the back

Freshie was actually reasonable this arvo
