The weekend’s onshore dribbles continue today. BOO. You’d be lucky to have your board touch water over the past 3 days. So if you see an influx of crew at the skate park, or someone doing Reos off kerbs in the car on the way to work, or even a work mate who’s a little […]

Bondi 7am – smaller waist to belly high wavesAfter a hot muggy nights sleep, we’re blessed with a fireball sunrise and a hazy warm day. Surf has dropped marginally leaving belly high waves in the Bondi southern corner. Swell is coming from the east, not suited to Bondee…at east facing beaches you should find a […]

Bondi 7am – sweet lil’ rights, glassyIf I was a 12 year grommie this morning, I’d be stoked… Clean waist high to occasionally chest high waves rockin’ into the southern corner breaking right on a sucky, strong rip. Not much push behind those bad boys dis morn’ – enough to get going, but if you’re […]

Bondi 7am – waist to shoulder high, tide affectedHola. Disappointingly the swell decreased overnight leaving us with waist to shoulder high waves down at Bondi this morning. I will eat my words from yesterdays report – thinking the swell was gonna hang around. No such luck kiddies. It’s still fun and surfable, but the raw […]

Bondi 7am – Head high fun ones…Sorry for sending this out late…I’ve been frothn’ for the past 24hrs with the delivery of decent NE chunks. Last night’s session was all goooood. So many breaks would have been going off with solid size at NE exposed beaches. This morning down at Bondi we’ve got head high […]

Bondi 7am – clean shoulder high with slightly larger setsNot baaaaaad. Conditions cleaned up this morning. Bondi had a few head high sets early – looks like everyone was onto it with a large morning crowd. Due to the lack of waves over the past couple of weeks, lots of frustrated surfers trying to fulfill […]

Bondi 7am – head high onshore chunkstersYesterday’s strong southerly winds kicked up some chunx worth a dabble dis morning. The southerly weather pattern continues to mess it up with early onshores, but you’d still find a few faces to slide down. Majority of the waves were a lil’ on the burgerish side, however a southern […]

Bondi 7am – good day to crank out the workToday’s conditions are quiet dire with a miniscule weak swell pumping baby ripples into the bay. Verging on unrideable, today’s Bondi bumps are best suited to the 1st time surfer. I think Even Marky Mark put the board away and opted for the sleep in. (now […]

Bondi 7am – big waves behind the Manly jetcat A glorious burning 6:20am sunrise kick started the day whilst early morning exercise fanatics panic at the apparent shortening of daylight. Bondi was a hive of activity at 6:30am. Our favourite beach was good for everything except surfing today. Ripples struggled to break above your knee […]

Bondi 6:30am clean chest high, bad banksGreetings crew…The surf conditions have improved from yesterdays onshore grovel. We’ve got clean chest high waves at Bondi this morning. Didn’t seem to have much push behind it probably due to a short interval and was hittn’ the banks straight. Nonetheless it was a great warm morning with clear […]

Light winds at 7am and will blow SE then swing back around the NE later this evening. Quite a few crew out getting their ocean fix for the day. The 11:02 […]

Bondi 7am – onshore washing machine, shoulder high setsSloppy, grey, onshore, dreary, ugly, mushy, fat, messy, botchy, disheveled, disorderly, higgledy-piggledy, jumbled, windy, crummy…and around shoulder high on sets. The onshore is making mince meat out of anything worth riding. Winds blowing ESE 15 knots possibly 20 knots later. Swell coming from the South East now. […]

Today’s report & photos by Mark Wiesmayr – Tsubi DesignerDang! It didn’t happen. Got asked to do a guest editor spot on the ‘Bumps, and was so excited (typically). Heard there was a little spike of swell expected for today, so ensured I had crew there to surf, and hot chicks to run the sand […]

Bondi 7am – small waist to shoulder high waves, glorious daySurprise surprise…last night we were thrown some small clean chunks well worth a paddle (not sure where they came from). Bondi looked like fun at around 8pm last night. This morning’s 1.96 metre mega high tide at 08:34am transformed most bumps in fat burgers, however […]

Bondi 7am – great morning, full small shoreyWhat a great morning to start the week. Perfectly sunny with gentle offshore breezes. The lack of swell continues from the weekend only managing waist high ‘shore slappers’ (I’m torkin’ waves here boyz…). A 07:36am high tide made absolute fattie boom-baaas of anything resembling a wave. Perhaps the […]

Hola. Swell continues from the east, but hardly producing anything surfable this morning. Decided to go for a swim on a deserted beach at sunrise (noice). Found a sensational stretch of liquid glass that I reckon would pump with a bit of swell. Small bank in the northern corner with peeling waist high waves. I’m […]

Howdy Kids…yep, I’m still out of town and it’s been pumpin’. Swell is smaller today but still generously sized. Scored head – head’n’half tubing glass early. Thought I had gone to heaven. Swell is coming from the east and winds will blow NE 15 knots this afternoon. The word on the street is that Bondi’s […]

Firstly I would like to apologise to all of those crew sitting in an office amongst the concrete jungle. You may even prefer to close this email right now before reading any further…and just pretend you never saw it. The reason being, I’ve taken some time off and decided to take a road trip in […]

Bondi 7am – slightly bumpy chest to head high sets. Hmmn. Not bad…Few hangovers going around this morning following our mid week public holiday. Hope you had a great Aussie day – saw crew boozing down Tama Park at 9am yesterday (and it wasn’t Ness for a change). The beaches were relatively empty for a […]

Bondi 7am – waist to shoulder high onshore mushGreetings Ninos. The swell has come up marginally over night, but it’s a weak wind swell flanked by a nuisance onshore easterly wind. Easterlies pretty much effect most beaches collecting any sniff of today’s small swell…summary – junky. The good news is that we are in for […]
