Only at Bondi...only at Bondi... Only at Bondi...only at Bondi... No. 11242

Corner delights 8th April 2009

Ideal conditions for Bondi this morning – and everyone is onto it. Big hungry crew frothing over 3 footers in the southern corner. Gentle side/offshore winds (SSW)…sun is shining…water is reasonably warm and everyone is due to head into the office soon. A good time to paddle out…

This swell will progressively get smaller into the weekend. Today and tomorrow are probably the best days of this week. Don’t think there will be much left over for the Easter Break. (and the weather looks mild average 21 degrees)

New format

I think we got a bit carried away when designing the new daily email layout. We had complaints of it being far too slow to download or arriving as jumbled code. Today we’re testing a new simplified template which should rectify most of these troubles. (fingers crossed) report weirdness

Gallery Closed over Easter

We’re closing the gallery doors for the Easter break. Friday to Monday. Don’t close often…no one in town anyway.

Balibelly

I am jumping on a plane to Bali to avoid the cooler temperatures here. Will send a few updates from up there. Jumpa lagi benchongs :: uge

    Unfortunately the top photo doesn’t only happen in Bondi. I live in Manly and it’s just the same.
    Where has the respect gone??!!!

    What an amazing photo “light-show over the buckler”. A real “jesus loves you” photo if i’ve ever seen one.

    Each day the text in the new format report (since it changed a while ago) can not be viewed in the body of the email, it comes through all jumbled on the right hand side. It is still the same today. I have to click on the link and view via internet page.

    I just love your stuff!!!! I’ve done a photographic course and shoot on D200 but I’m very beginner but your stuff is so inspirational! We live in Melbourne – so if I wanted to buy a couple of really large pictures … how would I get them?

    Thanks for brightening our day with your emails (we lived in Bondi for 3 years).

    Kind regards
    Sally

    Bondi is imbarrasing, the amount of people who have no idea about the line up in the surf and how it all works.
    at least look before you paddle into a wave, it’s really not that hard

    that bodyboarder looks like he’s about to cop a good 6 foot plus of fiberglass right up the crack so to speak!
    would love to know the ending to the tale
