Got about 15 waves all around shoulder high,100m rides. In the water at 6am, only half a dozen of us, glassy. Another 10 or so came out after eight, I got out at 8:30am, wind went onshore at 9am.

Back to riding in the hills today. Perfect riding condition, saw two other riders. Rode a great track with about 30 odd berms and 30 jumps, all downhill. 40 minute ride up, 10 minutes down. Repeat and I'm done.

Having a shocking run here too.
The winds the main problem.

Spring is my least favourite time for surfing.

Same up here.
Northerlies, small short period easterly swell.
But just enough gems to hold the interest.

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.

Too many scrappy SE winds in Sydney. Nice conditions this morning with a bit of drizzle and no wind. No swell at Bondi. A bit at Bronte this arvo but the wind was getting into it.

Indeed. I’ll surf better and bigger waves than that tomorrow. And it’s hardly a hyped swell event

Australia has a very, very, long surf coast. No surprise that the surf gets good somewhere reasonably regularly. Still, it is not where the top surfers generally go on their surf trips. There are better places.

Short boarded for the first time in a while.
A bit gutless unfortunately.
Did a couple nice turns.

Yeah I went for a paddle in two foot cross shore crap. Surfed for about 45 getting a few grovellers and then a larger one came through that had a couple of crumbling sections to hit followed by the last turn were I got a bit of fin release. It’s funny but that one wave made my day and it waist high rubbish. Mind you the MR Cali twin loves those conditions. You should try one Legion.

Yep. I’ve had a couple shaped by him as we as a couple of his mass produced ones up here. They all go insanely well but the ones from him last longer and are obviously much more special. I gave one to Skipper I think?
