There where 4 Gore-Tex clad "photographers" standing on the rocks on Sunday. It looked like TAFE photo club central in the same vein as amateur bird watchers shooting starlings in the shrubbery
It was clear as the day wasn't that none of these "photographers" actually surfed.
Don’t ya all wish the “photographers” would stick to chasing parrots on the weekend and not taking crap surf shots of your local breaks and posting them up with a sales pitch.

There are a few "local blokes" amongst that lot.
The really funny thing ...... I was walking back out to rock off again and stopped for a chat with a mate and noticed the TAFE photo class huddled on the rocks with all their gore tex gear (looked like a bunch of lost skiers) and I thought to myself .... I wonder ..... wait for it .... if those non surfers will post their shots on Real Surf …. Sure enough.
When the new coffee shop opened under the surf shop the Balmorilification of Avoca gathered pace and now the local grooms rip that little wave to pieces for the entertainment of ever diverse tribes.
The North peak rights where meatier ....

The point was 3 to 5ft, the outside peaks around 6ft and bigger down the beach. Of course ievry now and then the sneaky boomers came through but the point is a very protected wave, hence the crowds. The rocks and rip make it all a cake walk. The swell was nothing on last week.

It was a fair bit bigger just off the point and a lot cleaner than these photos earlier in the morning. Most guys out were locals, as in the pics and most of the guys taking photos were the kid's dads and mates so give em a go.
Generally most of the c.coast was unsurfable (didn't see t.point) hence the crowds. And the photo opportunities and smaller waves on the point account for less guys on the bigger break.
The bomb sets on the next break would clean up a lot of people and was easier to go in than paddle.
