Aquabumps Surf Photography Bondi

Vivid

2010-02-09T00:17:56Z

The swell is dissipating – and so is the rain – alleluia. Bondi had a weak, floppy 1-2 foot wave this morning – with a large number of people out. It’s not going to get any better for a while so best utilize what’s on offer with a large chunk of fibreglass e.g. Mal, Fish.

Half asleep, in the dark I rolled down the hill around 6am, it was raining and cloudy – didn’t think the sunrise was going to pull through when boom, shards of colour erupted on the horizon. Good lens fodder, hope you saw the sunrise this morning.

Winds are NE at the moment and the sunshine is out – great beach day down at Bondi with a top of 27 degrees.

In our recent survey, it seems most of you are using iphones. I hope you’ve all gone to your AppStore and downloaded the AQUABUMPS app. It’s free! Oh, and our facebook page has nearly 4,000 of you interacting with it. Join

The Aquabumps Gallery is open 10am to 6pm every day except Mondays. Come on in…151 Curlewis Street Bondi Beach (near TAB and Civic Video) t: 9130 7788

Sydney needed a good hosing down…and 4 days straight of pouring rain should do it… enough already! Trying to shoot out of the ‘abduction van’ side door ain’t easy in the rain. Only got a couple of shots of a decent left at Bondi that seems to be a rideable 2 ft with 3 ft infrequent sets. We still have east swell hittin’, so Maroubra should be bigger – but still junkie. It’s dropping off further tomorrow and there won’t be much to surf all week. It’s going to continue to rain though.

Yesterday I was in Adelaide, where it’s clear skies and 35 bakin’ degrees. No surf though. Nice to get out the rain!

Aquabumps Survey

Thank you to the thousands of crew who have completed our Aquabumps survey last Friday. Really appreciate it. It’s great to learn more about you. Some interesting results like 67% of the readers are male (it used to be around 85% male last time we surveyed), most of you read my ramble and not just look at the pretty pictures (weird), and there is a lot more of you on the northern beaches than I thought…oh, and you want to see more pictures of me?!@# (that’s not going to happen, not unless I crack my head open again). If you haven’t completed the survey, please do so and you could win a $1050 acrylic artwork from our gallery to hang above your sofa.

Have a good week :: uge

infrastructure

2010-02-05T01:09:16Z

Decent sized swell is wasted in the Eastern Suburbs. We just don’t have the infrastructure to hold it. A.k.a reefs, a river mouth, or a decent chunk of sand or artificial reef.

Bondi was a wobbly, wonky, manky 4-5 foot. I sat there for 1.5 hrs looking for a single decent one – and na, nuttin’. Most of the other beaches just looked big (6 ft), fat and random…so be prepared to paddle around in circles. I’d drive far away, in search of a protected reef.

Wind is going more north as you read this. That’s a good thing, let’s hope it lines up a little better. High tide 2pm, low tide 8am.

Fortunately there is a dead east swell all weekend with favourable winds. Get out there, with the Inter Club challenge on this weekend up at Gold Coast, all good surfers will be leaving their local post clearing the peak.

Aquabumps is open all weekend 10am to 6pm and you’ll find our long gallery at 151 Curlewis Street Bondi beach – still lost?

Let’s get to know each other

For years now I’ve been pumping out this daily email to thousands of people and you know a lot more about me than I know about you. I’d like to improve the Aquabumps experience and hear your feedback – what you like, dislike…please complete the Official Aquabumps Survey and you could win one of my $1050 acrylic artworks from the gallery. Don’t worry, the info gathered will between you and I, and I’m not selling it on the black market…so…can I have 5 mins of your time seeing it’s Friday and fill out this survey. Thanks heaps.
Adios, uge
