Banks around here are not liking this Easterly swell direction.

2-3ft and pumping this morning. Nice surprise as there was nothing in the forecasts or reports. Must have kept the crowds away too. #winning

Yep, thought I would go for a paddle just to get some exercise. Scored three quick set waves and paddled in happy.

The swell has dropped to around head high lately and the crowds are out in force at Ulus - I counted 120 at at the peak/race tracks yesterday

English sensibility.

I remember after a season at Bourneouth and Boscombe piers surfing english channel windslop coming home and 1-2ft NE windswell was "pumping".

Fun, uncrowded waves this morn back on the N coast.
Swellnet saying it's inconsistent.

Well I surfed In Vic on the weekend and that is what I call inconsistent.
3's a crowd down there for sure.

Swell is still hanging in up here. If anything today was bigger than yesterday at my local point.

I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.

Bohemian Fitzwegian women come more frequently than surf coast waves on a 3 foot distant groundswell.

Were you not tempted to, you know, move around a little bit? It sounds like you did a Beanpole and just stumbled hungover to the worst possible option time after time

Oh I scoped out one of Englands best secret spots Godsave and gave those pommies a lesson in Aussie power surfing they won't forget in a hurry.

somewhere in North Cornwall.

they all tried to stink-eye me out like it was Newport beach on a Monday morning.

actually that coast was almost more depressing, because I kept expecting real waves and didn't realise Ireland blocks most swells.

Was this your fabled go out at millook on the borrowed minimal? I’m sure you’ve written before about what a great surf you had there when you weren’t trying to be all tough and hard-bitten in front of an antipodean audience
