Yeah still pretty solid this morning, some straight ones but some smokers, great fun.

There’s a dude way out to sea on an outer bank off Nth wall paddle surfing on his own.
Must be 500m+ straight off the middle of lighthouse beach.
Someone’s just paddling out now to join him.

You aren’t the room Yuke You are just a wonky cafe table with a missing rubber pad on the end of one leg.

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.

On a cliff above the ocean.

Had a ball today. Paddled out in the crowd thinking maybe I could score a stray one if I sat wide. Then realised 75% had no hope of paddling onto the waves where they were sitting and I was on a mal. Even if they caught one they couldn’t plane through to the inside section from where they were but I could. Stoked. Cracker of a day. Waves up and down the beach.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
Those small shore slappers seem to generate more of an epic night swell noise than actual big surf.
Re: Where did you surf today ?
That's because they break in shallower water. But the sound doesn't travel as well due to the higher pitch.
Re: Where did you surf today ?
Where I used to stay about 1km from the beach, some nights you could hear this thrilling deep wave rumble rolling across the land. This was just about always caused by the little slappers. The little slappers occur on still nights which partly explains the noise production.

Gragagan is the only place that I've listened to the surf during the night, apprehensive of what the morning would bring:

And no shit I lucked into the wave of the day, just after a gigantic set cleared the line-up

Ulus has been big lately on SOB. A few old codgers on rhino chasers scoring a few....and a few floggings. It always looks like a great wave to surf at a bit of size....until you look at how much whitewater you would be dealing with if you got smashed...plus coming in.

If you can be arsed googling it, Swellnet did an in-depth article behind the science of a small shorie creating more noise than a big swell.foamy wrote: ↑Thu Jun 03, 2021 9:36 amWhere I used to stay about 1km from the beach, some nights you could hear this thrilling deep wave rumble rolling across the land.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
When I lived at Port Campbell the house would shake on a big swell. The noise was phenomenal- background constant coupled with the boom of the set waves. It was a signal for me to head Northwest. I’d check the activity on the beach in the early morn. Very attentive to their skis and other equipment. Slater was there once. Impressive as that is, the old-school chargers would roll up on the cliff after milking cows and paddle it

Had a bit of a bash. A bit crowded but nothing like yesterday. I counted twenty guys on a non existent peak.
