Last legs of the weekend swell but still lots of fun and no crowds.

I love the look of the right off that bombie. Every time I’ve checked it but there’s been a stack of current running. And it looks like you’d end up in no mans land and swept around to the next cove if you didn’t scratch your way inside in time
The rights are great with more south in the swell. But also in east, just be ready to cop some big sets on the head. I go left mostly!

What’s the paddle in like on the rights? Or is it a hitchhike back from Stanwell park ?

The left at least has a channel

Despite the onshore wind arriving as I parked the car still got some nice very uncrowded waves.

Crowded but managed to snare a few. A few complaints in the water about ignorant fcukwits dropping in and attempting snakes without even realising what they were doing.

South Bra in the Southerly. Some okay looking windy peaks rolling through but tended to not join up with the shorey. Fun drops though.

Honestly, the sweep ain't too bad.

No paddle in, you have to go back to the beach the other way or attempt the locals' over-the-rockshelf technique

4th day in a row and the best of this run of swell (in fact for me for the year) - keep on giving autumn.

Fcuk, I’ve been averaging 4-5 days a week for the last five months. Stoked.

Those waves at Rainbow Bay that are running on YouTube lately looking like the Rainbow of old.

Yes, those forecats can be fickle little furry critters.
Had a ball on the mal this morning. Swell was fickle though.

Yes I found it to be gutless close out land this morning apart from that left with too many on it

It was funny. I went looking for the remnants of the right up near the Pav and ended up drifting down to the remnants of the left which was way better. No one there at the start and you had to link the sections up.

Groundhog Day again. About 6 guys on the left. First surf in a steamer this year and no sign of the hazardous surf conditions. Just a hazardous female learner on a soft board.
