Howdy Ian,
The long range forecast is saying north wind sat morning. Best location for clean conditions will probally be middleton. Its a beach break will probally be clean, the waves are weak and fat but on a sup, more that fun. Last sat (20th) was pretty good so may be the same. Re-check wed nights forecast.
Regards,
Scott

Thanks guys,
Just had a look at a map and Middleton is just down the road and south coast is not to far away, should be good.
Are there many Sup'ers around Middleton?

thanks for the heads up Scotty.
I'll be at Middleton Sat day from day light onwards, Hope to catch up.

Yeah that would be great to catch up, more the merrier.

Been the old fart, the waxheads might leave me alone and pick on you younger guys[}:)]

Hi all,
If you are ever travelling to Adelaide, do yourself a favour and head down to Middleton near Victor Harbour for a SUP.
I’ve just back home after spending 4 days there and I’m hooked on the area.

Mark, great to catch up with you Sat morning. Other than breaking my leggie it was a very enjoyable session.
I went back to the point Sun morning at day light but it was closing out a bit too quick for my liking.
My son and I went to another break on the outskirts of Middleton towards Goolwa. (Boettcher road I think it’s called, not sure about the spelling). A fattish over head high and glass.
The Starie 11 2 was a bit of a hand full but not once did she misbehave. You would of love it.

Your missed a great morning Scotty. All in all the surfers were ok except for one idiot on Sun morning, no sweet he soon shut his mouth

Ian

Bugger,
My son was staying in a beach house near the last cark park to the east, not sure how far that was from the toilets.

Ooop's, cant half tell I'm new to this Surfing / Suping game. I guess to the purist it was 3 > 4 foot, to me if it's over my head then I call it head high.
I guess I need to adjust my height scale if I'm going to quote wave height in the future.

Yeah hope to catch up next time in town.
Ian

Hey Ian, was great to catch up! good to see you got more waves.cheer's mark

Hey Champ,
We are playing the surf but we never said we were good at it........ Would be great to catch up. Drop us a line then.
Regards,
Scott

Hey guys.. bit random and off the topic but i was after a stand up paddle as a gift idea and didn't know where to turn to for help and as a fellow south aussie i thought you guys might help me??
I was wondering where and what sort of stand up paddle should i get??? If there is second hand ones any where?
He windsurfs and surfs and thought this might be something new for him to try... any info would be awesome

Hey Tweety, what a nice girl looking to surprise your man with a stand up paddle board.. Awesome.. It depends on how big he is, and how skilled and balanced he is.
If In doubt always go bigger, look at getting him an 11 6 " or 11 2" for his first board.
Some good brands to look for (in no particular order) Naish- Psh- Starboard-Kalama-Jimmy Lewis, I started on the 11 6" south point Kalama, excellent board.
I also love the 11 2" starboard, great board In the surf! And the 11 4" naish is also meant to be awesome, any psh board is super quality, let us know how you go!!

Brook

Hey Tweety,
Steer clear of narrow boards. Dont buy anything less than 29" wide.
Regards,
Scott

Thanks for the info guys.. been more useful then some people...

Might have to put the stand up paddle idea on hold... after all his going to Robe and leaving me home

Here's one Tweety.
