Last week saw the best surf in Sydney for the past 6 month, pics dont do the conditions justice but the other guys that were out there can also contest to the conditions, the lefts were over 500 long! Saturday was 3 to 4feet and increasing , Sunday was overhead and was epic.

Where were you surfing?

Where I was it was 4-5 times overhead on Saturday and flat Sunday.....

Oh hang on-you mean the weekend BEFORE ANZAC day? Looks like Ocean Beach Ettalong, correct?

A bunch of us came over by boat from Palmy on the Sunday-bloody good fun.

You can get 2 mount options for the gopro and surfboards. One is a "suction cup" that sticks to/sucks down on the board. The other is a fitting that goes in a FCS centre plug, involves sticking a FCS centre plug in your deck.

Think I saw before that VG uses the suction cup option.

Hi ,

Started with the 3 M stick on plug but this broke on my first surf a few months back so have mounted the FCS plug sytem on all my other boards, The Go Pro surf version comes standard with the 3M glue mount bracket but would not trust this in big surf..........
