Port Douglas works better than Yorkeys the more South the wind is. Port Douglas has a great set up you can ride the flat water beside the reef or go for a downwinder along four mile beach and get some wind swell along the way. Our water at Yorkeys turns brown pretty quick and many find this a little disconcerting.

We have had a fair bit of rain this year so many of the locals are hoping this is a good indicator for the season ahead, I have no idea but I like to agree with the salty dogs and then bag the hell out of them when they get it wrong.

I suppose from what I have said that Port is better than Yorkeys but Yorkeys is my local and I wouldn't swap it for the world, my red neck was fading but the south easters are coming and I can see the rosey colour returning already.

July should see you right, middle of the SE trades. Best time of year.

When I haven't been skulking around public toilets, I've been getting the occasional session out the front of the house on the skimmer - but hasn't this off season been truly off?
Terrible conditions with all this rain and stuff.

hey boys just struggling down here on the sunny coast - not great wind but have been riding, the river mouth at caloundra is really cool with the strong out going tide
i have just got myself a slingy surfboard so today i begin my wave riding career. Nice blue clear water is a real treat -
plus doing lots of surfing , lifes tough but I will have do some work in the next 4 weeks or so.
The riding in the nats was pretty good esp the juniors ... cheers Bruce x

hey boys just getting into the surfing on my new 5'11 surfboard - had the unsual sensation of coming in on a big face of a wave and looking down on my kite in front of me....
plus her was fridays dilema - 2 pm 4 ft cleans wave for surfing or go kiting in the surf -
never had tha choice before
later dudes gotta go wax me board

come on, the river mouth is good as with all those natural kickers surounding the flat water. Also the topless back packers are a added extra.

Nah mate, the river mouth is not like it was when you were last up here a few months back. The river mouth has just been EXACUTED!!! and as for the topless girls, well the closest thing to that was when cammck became rebellous went all pink on us but he has since straightened up (apparently)

We had a good twenty knots today so I kited up to the mouth for a flat water session and the dredge has pumped ALL the sand from the bar that gave us the protected flat water. They have absolutely ruined the river mouth as we know it! The locals are going to be mighty pissed off as it was really taking a good shape for this year.

i would appreciate if you would all refrain from discussing my knob!

Did you know that it is called a Yorkeys "Knob" as it was never "big enough" to amount to anything significant such as a hill, bump, knoll, crest or even a mound! So you be proud of your "knob"

Damn that pink rebel fookin thing is still haunting me. From what I am hearing red and green is the new pink.
