Offshore
It’s offshore and the crowd goes wild! Everyone has hit the beach this morning to get involved. I drove past most of the beaches in the East, and there was a pack of wolves, hunting the morning swells. I hope you got some. Summary – it’s 3-4 foot, swell direction is ESE so plenty of […]
Grey Suits
The shark alarm cleared North Maroubra this morning around 6am. Rumor has it, there is a friendly shark looking for a few mates in the lineup. He’s been around all week the local boys tell me. Do you get out when you hear the alarm? Comment here. With a new north wind swell, there are a […]
Warm Peaks
We’ve had a good run of summery small waves in Sydney lately. I don’t know about you, but I’ve surfed nearly every day for 2 weeks. I’ll surf anything I can get really but I’m having a good time! Today – 2 foot, maybe a bigger set around head high. Clean morning with perfectly clear […]
Tube time
Oh boy. So many fun waves this morning. Good to see it lighting up in this south swell. I spent the morning with Blake…hunting tubes. Found em! With the morning dropping tide the waves got really hollow. Don’t worry, there should be waves all weekend in Sydney. Enjoy ’em. :: uge
Monday
Mondays are a favourite. The weekend’s crowds have dispersed, the beach is quiet. Monday’s are even better with waves (4-5 foot)! So many options today with a East swell. Empty line ups everywhere. Head to your local beach and there will be something for ya. :: uge
Proper
Today’s post is all about surfing. There’s really good waves on offer for those not stuck in an office. At 8am the swell kicked and the sun finally came out of hiding. Ah yes, Autumn dayz are here kids. Offshore. 3/4 foot. What more do you want? :: uge
Decrease
The ocean has calmed down now. It’s amazing how much it dropped overnight. Yesterday’s boom town has been downgraded to some neat little 3-4 footers. It’s much more manageable and most beaches will be back in business. There was some really big sets yesterday – I reckon the odd 10 footer! After a very dark […]
Morning Pump
Oh boy that East swell sure was kicking early today. Some really chunky stuff. Shame the wind came in and ruined all the fun. If you were up early today you would have scored. By the looks of the deserted streets I think most of you took today off and slept in. Enjoy your 4-day […]
Power groms
A pack of groms owned Maroubra this morning. About 8 of them. All sub 30 kgs each. They can paddle into a ripple, pop an air, high five a mate then kick off. Heckling is constantly broadcasted from the channel – it’s awesome. I can’t wait for my little men to get out there. OK ‘nuf […]
From the road…
Sorry about the really late update. Been on the road for 6 hours then sitting on the back of a jet-ski for another 6…so I have a fair excuse. With this fresh new south swell I was keen to find some chunky stuff – found it! Some sets may have touched 8 foot, mainly 4-6 […]
Rain
Our fantastic run of winter sunshine has finally come to an end. She’s about to rain. The south swell has been consistently breaking all week. Today you’d find 3-4 footers at Bondi (But they are mainly closing out). Maroubra had a few pockets…not enough to get most out of bed. Fruitman Sam delivers fruit and […]
Siberia
I’m built for the tropics. Maybe it’s my part Asian heritage. Yeah I’ll say it…I’m such a pussy in the cold. Definitely no Chris Burkard here (yes, I’ve seen his Ted talk). This morning I was huddled up on a wet rock at 6 something…the frosty westerlies blowing. The sun was slow rising and not […]
2 0 3 5
With all this East swell it made sense to go for a drive and have a look around. Bondi neglects the current swell direction and it was tiny. It’s dropped quite a lot overnight. I found waves only in the 2 foot range at exposed beaches. Nothing fantastic. Really warm, comfortable conditions early – which […]
