Aquabumps.com - where the waves live

When I was younger I used to watch the vid "Kelly Slater in Black’n'white" non stop. He was only a little grom then…obviously ripped. I remember thinking black + white is pretty cool and spent subsequent years sticking my hands in trays of toxic chemicals processing black and white prints in my parent’s laundry. Today’s shots are in black’n'white (chemical free) to make the most of what little light was available under overcast skies. The ocean being the same colour as the skies…grey.

Frothas, you’d be limited to a few surf spots in Sydney this morning as the swell has dropped managing 2-3 footers at exposed beaches to this SE mini swell (mainly 2 footers). The NE winds were blowing early so you need to find a protected northern corner – such as North Narra where there was a few chest high waves – odd one bigger. High tide 4pm, Low tide 10am. Only 23 degrees today with a few showers. Surf looks crapola this weekend – north winds and 1-2 footers. Perhaps tomorrow check out Heat 2 of Miss Bondi at the Beach Road Hotel (2pm).

Today’s report comes from a Dee Why cafe thanks to the wireless genius of Unwired.

Don’t forget the Wonderland crew are having a New Years Eve bash at the Eastern in the Junga. Limited ticket’s from Parade Music Bondi 9365 1248 $38.

Have a good weekend ::uge
