Aquabumps.com - where the waves live

Thursday, May 18, 2006

Returned from paradise to find Bondi waist high,
clean and breaking in the corner off the same bank that’s been hanging
around for a while now. Winds are offshore early and NE later. It’s
surfable – you’d wanna be pretty keen. Looks small for the next
4 days – so best do something else.

Tahiti is getting a monster swell
today and tows at Teahuppo will be on – yeah – just my luck. Shame
the Billabong Pro wasn’t this week. The local boys were talking
it up to be the swell of the year.

Every time I come back from a trip its funny – some
one I don’t know, like the local coffe dude, will say ‘lucky bastard’…’how
was Tahiti – looked like you scored’. I guess the more air tickets
I buy the luckier I get – I once read somewhere ‘you don’t need
permission to go on a holiday’. There are so many breaks going off
today – dooooit dooit. Get out there. If you need some inspiration
click on the photo gallery below for random pics of the last week
in Tahiti.
