No. 1981

::Friday, 27 February 2004

It’s big. The ocean is totally
out of control with monster chunks all over the place. Some waves were
around the 12ft – 15ft face mark. Very few places holding the swell. Only
saw a few guys out at North Bondi catching scraps. Be careful if you’re
heading out, there is loads of water moving and you can feel the clean
up sets pounding whilst you’re on the land – so don’t cop one on the head
or you’ll permanently part your hair.

Surfing in the harbour
I hear even the harbour is breaking! What da? Yep, Nielsen Park, Vaucluse
is clean 2 – 3ft. (Check pic). Large crowds to contend with. I must admit,
it’s an awesome spectacle surfing with the harbour bridge as a backdrop.

My call – check out the Bower (if you’re a hell man), North
Bondi, South Manly or Neilson park. Swell will continue to slightly drop
off overnight so if the ocean calms down, then the swell lines up, there
will be a few to score tomorrow. Moowhahaha!

Tonight is the final night of the Bondi open Air cinema.
STEP INTO LIQUID is showing and it’s going to be a cracker.
Buy your tickets online at www.bondiopenair.com.au
– it’s an all-weather venue so I suggest a jacket (or a cardigan if you
one of the Page girls).

    Hi,
    I`m looking for a shot from this day at North Bondi with a natrual foot surfer taking off and going right, caption was something about “close outs”, can you send a sample copy like the one that was on the site?
