Nice work Chrispy. Still fairly big here - yest we took a boat to a far away Island and scored big time. Heaven. Heaving pits all day long. Took a chunk out of my board this morning. Annoying but not a train wreck. Marched over the reef last night Chrispy holding my camera kit above my head - got there and back in one piece. Will post some pics when I get back to base and get a decent connection. Classic trip this one - the only times I have not surfed has been because it's been too big for me


Score bro...can't wait to see the pics!!

Some smoking waves today, bit lumpy, but big 'n chunky...Pup did you get a few

Got the new board wet & didn't like it at all. No drive off the bottom, sliding like crazy on top turns. Even turning to kick out of a wave I would slide out heaps.

After sliding sideways down a steep overhead wave & getting drilled at the bottom. I thought somethings not right here, this board is very thin in the tail & has sharp edges. It should be turning on a dime...so I turned it over & was like OH that explains it. I was surfing a twinnie, the rear AM2 fin was missing lol & I remembered bumping some reef on the way out. So I guess I didn't screw it in enough.

Lucklily I had some solus fins in the car to whack in & returned to the wind picking up from the Nth. Thought fargit, it wasn't clean anyway & most of the other crew headed in leaving me with 3 others spread out on our own bubbles. Board felt great with a rear fin lol...ended up having some good waves including one screamer in the end that took me all the way over to the next reef

Really it seemed like it was better when I left at 1100. You must have got there about 1000 when it was looking the worst. Wind did back off a bit after 1030...but it was looking much cleaner South of 1st reef than past 2nd.

Well gotta love beer uncle thirsty, wish I could too but gotta head off to work soon.

Hey Mick

You pretty much summed it up. I was there 8.00 to 11.00. Started out right up the point and worked my down it the bay.
Got some nice ones friendly crew to. Lots of waves not ridden due to the paddle go, go, oh no stop, it got steep
Mick what were you riding ? Reckon I saw you based on watching your videos.

no surfing for me. it was smaller today,still perfect and pumping......the crowds were just finally too much for me. im going for a coast run tomorrow. my tubealicious wave on monday means even more to me now,after watching the carnage from burleigh then snaps,well **** that shizz i say. as lacey said earlier,i have witnessed some of the most amazing surfing. yet after five days,well i just hate people and their dangerous,arrogant and stupid ways

You should send a pm to weiry,he is staying in Noosa atm as well. You two have a similar sense of humour,so should be good fun over a few beers.


On the wave front we have had some smokers up here on a certain tide
Steamer is now put away,just springy or boardies from now until winter
