Agree it has been very ordinary but we have had some great days over the last 6 weeks. Last Wednesday for example was all time epic on the 6 with a big swell.
Looks like improving from tommorow!

That sucks Chris! Been getting 2 or 3 seshs a week but hasn't settled into a proper seabreeze pattern for a while. Nice you are back at work so the wind should pick up now haha

We've had wind here in the naki. But lacking epic swell we usually get!... had some epic days but not the truck loads of 3m+ swell days we usually get.
I'm almost forced to consider freestyle as I'm not entertained enough without the sweet swell.

Hey
east coast (coffs harbour ) is the same.
Were still waiting for season to start here compared to last year.

I don't know where on the east coast "dowls" is but the wind has sucked up here on the Central Coast. Often waiting for the Southerlies to come through in order to get those epic days we are used to.
