Aquabumps.com - where the waves live

Hooowwwl 12th December 2008

This ain’t summer… Hasn’t stopped raining all morning. At least the car is getting all the salt washed off it.

Mini waves in Sydney today – 1 foot, Bondi was pretty much flat as it’s a NE swell (missing the south facing Bondi). Good day to get some work done. Here are some images from the glorious Mentawai Islands to keep you going in between sets.

Winds are going to hooowwl this afternoon. Expect up to 35 knot gales from the NE. Batten down the hatches. The good thing is that all this wind will produce some 3 footers for tomorrow at exposed beaches.

In the meantime, get your Christmas shopping done. Here are some suggestions:

1. Of course number 1 would be to drop by the new Aquabumps Gallery at 151 Curlewis Street, Bondi and pick up a framed print of Bondi. We have hundreds of prints to choose from (seeing the new gallery is massive). Open all weekend 10am to 6pm…
2. Surfection Mosman is having a board sale – a little fish for $495 brand new is a good deal. 522 Military Road Mosman call 9969 1011
3. SHURE sound isolating earphones for your ipod. These are great on planes as they remove the droning sounds of the engines – making you feel better when you get off.
4. Long sleeve Rip Curl E BOMB vest – they’re incredible, an essential for summer. The material is so soft it feels like you’re wearing nothing. Can get them at Rip Curl Bondi on Campbell Parade.
5. Muchacho Tees – local fella Andrew Cameron has put out a range of tees made locally, inspired his travels in South America. Order online or contact 0404 557 510
6. Springcourt Shoes – they’re hot. They just are. Get them at 113A Commonwealth Street Surry Hills t: 9281 8806

Have a great weekend.
