Bon-dye 8am – bigger, messier and surfable
Last nights strong south change gave birth to a new swell which is bigger yet messier than yesterday. Bondi had some larger 3-5 foot sets out the back towards the middle. Looked really bumpy and closing out on the bigger ones. A protected corner would best suit today’s conditions. This swell is hanging around until Saturday and predicting light winds for the rest of the week! W/NW winds on Friday should show some quality. High tide 4:20pm, Low tide 10am, Water warm 20 degrees with a cool 19 degrees for land dwellers. All day offshores should make for cleaner conditions…

Fiji is going off today for the finals. If you’re bored at work twiddling your pen, the GLOBE WCT Fiji surf comp, which is currently being broadcast live over the net, should provide a distraction. Just watching Kelly Slater (USA) Vs Fred Patacchia (HAWAII) pull into some epic Tavarua tubes. Live footage online
