Mick Fanning, dubbed the fastest man that has ever set foot on a surfboard, came to Sydney on this salubrious, grey, onshore, wintery morning. The waves are VERY junkie…but at least there is something to surf. Mick’s taken a year off after 15 years on the pro surfing tour grind. I asked him if he […]
Mick
I was down the beach with Mick today. The biggest name in surfing right now as he’s looking down the barrel of a 4th world title…yes, four! Mick and I have a lot in common… Mick EUGENE Fanning. Top name. Mick is a ambassador for the primo german vehicles – Audi. Same same. Mick spent […]

What a good start to the day…the small waves continue and the sunshine is abundant. This will all change tomorrow when rain arrives and a thumpin’ new south swell. Super windy on Saturday afternoon (and big) but next week should be fun when it all calms down. The unstoppable Slater just won Fiji WCT tour […]

Most waves feather out the back, fizzle out in the middle, before a slap on the beach. Just position yourself somewhere in the […]

Well, it’s no Kirra out the front that’s for sure…. not even Kirra’s inferior brother. I’ve been drooling over all that footage from Queensland’s gem’s on Sunday, then glancing back out the window looking at Bondi’s 2 foot onshore dribbles thinking – where did I go wrong? Surfing shouldn’t be high on your agenda for […]
period
Hello. What a nice morning. Strip of clouds highlighted first light, gentle offshore winds at Bondi and a neat little 2-3 footer in the corner. The swell period boasts 14 seconds, but there is no swell size to compliment such a high figure. That translates to a very inconsistent morning, long waits, but the odd […]
Contrast
In stark contrast to yesterday we’ve got overcast skies, drizzle, onshore winds and 2-3 footers – oh, and a empty Bondi beach. Barely anyone around…as it’s no pretty picture down there. Maybe wait until it cleans up tomorrow. Small waves all week mostly in the 2-3ft range. Only 22 degrees on the land today, the […]
