Here in god's country (northern Beaches) we have a 2-3 meter south swell at 13-16 sec period. Had fun DY point head high to 1 and 1/2 head high with Matty and a fair crew. Heaps of waves though.

Swell heading north at a rate of knots!!!

Anyone else getting waves today?

Huey waited for the 9-5'rs to disappear before bringing it on up here. Just scored solid triple overhead waves at a break called 'clouds' that only breaks when big. The Bombora Chaser finally got wet with a thruster setup, blackstix2 and 4.5 performance, it rode great and handled some big cranking turns no trouble at all.
I know somewhere that would of box all time today with the NE'r coming up. Didn't anyone surf it?

To NewcastleSUP Just back from a session there myself and I must say that a lot of toher people had the same idea......at least 25 to 30 people in the water and it was far from classic. A shame. Seems more size is hitting the Dee Why end of the beach for some reason. Oh well at least we have waves for a change!!!

I think NewcastleSUP was talking about a different box - one with less butter.

If anyone surfed a certain kilometer + long left today - I don't want to hear about it!!!!!

Yeah that's the one. I don't want to hear about it either. Would have been perrrfect - I reckon.

AA surfed it today with Bevan and said it was cooking!

Hi Simon newcastle sup I heard the box was not bad but crowded.I couldnt spare the time away from work so I surfed Nobbys reef which was way way overhead from 9am till 10.30 had a blast.Only had to share the big ones with a couple of cool old dudes on goat boats.

late this arvo the swell is still coming from the north with the ocassional cross swell wedging up from the south

bring it on for the morning session

Yes I know the one - love that place.

we all have know that feeling....when i was a grommy and there was that Old Mal dog who used to paddle out and get every set because he could paddle into them before me. frustrated the **** out all the grommys. then there was some of the best locals, who would hoot us onto waves and let us have some sets.
They had the ability to get every wave and rip the crap out of it, but they chose to
give it away to us every now and then. The mal guy didn't and he was very much disliked.
Just because we have the ability to get the best wave of the sets, because we can see them coming and can get them 20 metres early, does not mean we should.
I have surfed all my life, and whether on a shorty or SUP if I have waited my turn, shown respect and in proirity I will take it.
But these days when I am SUPing I used the 3rd wave of the set rule. Let a few go every now and then.
Unfortunately it is the few that give us a bad name, and if I see it in the water, I will make sure I let them know.
Rant officially over now.....

Vibe on second peak was good - not an ounce of aggro.
Looked pretty cramped and tight on main peak so we stayed away.
Plenty of wide ones for everyone.

yeh i heard from a mate who was chatting with a Av local (stretch) that the second peak was perfect

well the swell kicked in over night up here

but still bumpy from the left over north giggle

got a few gnarly barrels so cant complain toooo much
