Imagine all those potential pre-teen board stompers along that pathway.

Amazing how uncrowded it is in the water here.
Town’s busy.
Clean fun 2ft waves, nothing amazing but there was no one else out.
And it’s school hols

I can take a tiny bit of Chris Cote, Turpel, Strider, kaipo, Pete Mel but you get just them, heat after heat and it is complete torture.

And Steve has to watch the whole thing.

Isn't pants, thud, after he had a hissy fit fight with no pants then made the alias?

More super fun waves this morn.
What a good run we are having. Making up for the terrible summer and absent autumn.
Surfed by myself for an hour and a half. Then 5 guys came out so I went in.
They were actually fine and everyone was spread out and there were heaps of waves but I’d had my fill.

Nice one, Trevor!

Had probably my best surf I’ve had for the year.
3ft point break. 2 of us out for the last hour of light and sitting on different takeoff spots.
I just seemed to be in synch, everything I wanted to do happened. Was like I was barely trying.
Haven’t had that for a long time.

Might try a cruisey semi protected wave somewhere for the arvo.
Done more surfing this week than I have in yonks.

We hadn’t seen any serious size in the swell all weekend here. Surfed the local yesterday arvo and got a few smokers. Had to wait a fair while between close outs and lulls. The lulls made it easy to get out at least as there were some powerful 6ft sets. I was the last one out about 5.15 and a big st...

Weird, usually much bigger here than there in these swells.
Glad you’re getting back into it.

And by occasional I mean, I saw one haha

How was it up your way Steve?
Crowded I assume.
4/5ft long lined sweepy closeouts here with the odd pot of gold.
Good fun still.
Very occasional single wave set 6fter just starting to show now.

Today’s swell and wind combo for my stretch today, 8.5/10.
2-4ft built to 3-5 late.
Light offshore all day, water bath warm.
Sand situation was unfortunately 2.5/10.
Still some fun ones and I surfed solo twice.

just perfect waist/head high. will be bigger tomorrow, and the next day and day after etc etc The bar is blocking most of this swell here. 6ft on the bar, slow 2ft at Shelley, angels with no where breaking properly. Small but fun looking further north. Hopefully that sand on the bar gets pushed nor...

How big Steve?
I rested my hematoma the last couple days. It’s a big bastard.
Gonna try in the morn.

Welcome back Shaun.

Yeh, I've heard from a few queenslanders who sillily booked trips to Melb recently and booked in. Was already significantly colder than the ocean when I went, Easter weekend, and I went at 4pm on the day 3 of 29 degree days. Imagine the Wales one in winter. is it any good ? I've watched footage of ...
