Well someone flicked the swell machine up a couple of notches. Where the hell did this come from I hear you say? Dunno – just go ride it. South swell 3 metres out to sea, 6 foot waves breaking on southern exposed beaches. Early morning westerly offshores making it quite appetizing this morning. The wind […]

Damn bumpy out there with a lot of water moving around. Bondi has bumps breaking around 4-5 foot with chilly offshores. The water is still warm, but the dash to the carpark isn’t so pleasant. Sadly you’d need to wear rubber. Swell should be a notch smaller tomorrow and halve by Saturdee – so frothas, […]

Fair bit of swell around this morning – expect to catch waves breaking over your head with the odd larger bomb set. A nice lil’ setup in the south with a deluxe bank pushing wally lefts. South east winds will butcher the quality later today – so the early was the go. Only 20 degrees..brr…high […]

Bondi 6:50am – micro weak stuff I saw something moving around down there resembling a wave – it was pretty tiny – and weak, bad combo I know. Bondi was breaking around knee to waist high on this east swell (which it ain’t best suited to). Winds were from the West and had a chill. […]

Doesn’t feel like winter is just around the corner with dayz like theze. Power deficient knee choppers were fizzling in the south of Bond*age after a decent sunrise. Today’s probably best suited to Mal riders and beginners. Swell is coming from the east, and you won’t find much around the joint especially with an incoming […]

If knee high wind chop is your thing then today is cranking. It’s pretty much unsurfable…so best do something else today. Next swell is due on Sunday and should supply us for a few days. It’s not going to be a monster swell – but something decent – 6footers. The Aquabumps Gallery, will be shut […]

We’ve drained our booming weekend’s south swell dry. There’s no more pump in the bump this morning – ankle biters breaking on the shores. Spectacular morning though – I don’t think it gets any better with a classy sunrise and perfectly sunny day (max 30 fat ones). To top it off the water is a […]

What can I say? Perfect conditions. Crystal green water, gentle offshores and a little waist to chest high number working on a new southern end bank. I’ll put money on it that it won’t hang around for long – as this tired swell dwindles into oblivion. For the frothn’ unruly pack of 20 on it […]

The monsters swells returned to Sydney over the weekend – and everyone is talking about it. Not as big as the beefcakes of 2 weeks ago – but still very solid. Yesterday Wedding Cake Island, Coogee, was the tow hot spot with hundreds of onlookers as a few skis whipped their buddies into water mountains. […]

She’s arrived…early in fact…and she’s real pruuuddy. She’s a perfect height; she’s got nice lines, very consistent, smooth and she’s packing some heat. 4 foot sets, SW offshores and sunshine make for a good day out in the water. 1 important ingredient missing down at Bondi – sand banks – it’s straight as. Bake it […]

Howling chilly offshores have beaten the swell flat overnight. At 6:30am there wasn’t much to ride at all, however it seems to have come up slightly since then – from 1 inch up to waist high (?). Still think you should fugehtiboutit. The crystal ball sees more big mutha chunks on their way. Tomorrow will […]

This time of year is just perfect. Water is still warm, the air is clean and lengthy periods of no wind. Monday’s booming swell has now subsided. That didn’t deter 10,000 frothas out at Bondi this morning enjoying the salubrious weather and fighting for waist high waves (10 per wave). It’s a day for the […]

You can always tell there are a few waves around when the car park is full before sunrise – hootin’ mad frothas dangling out of car windows with roofs packed of surfable contraptions. She’s clean, She’s much smaller than yesterday, around head high – enticing…ya…but quite straight on the early morning low tide. (low 7:18am) […]

The gods have delivered once again – a succulent concoction of chunky south swell with some gentle offshore winds…add a bit of sunshine….throw in some warm water and weekday minimal crowd factor – how good. South facing Bondi was captivating the most of this swell – however the banks weren’t holding up producing mostly close […]
