smokingly good today! Waited until the lower tides in the arvo to get the waves zipping thru the gutters.

really nice walled up rights into a channel -my first right was as good as any wave i've had at scarbs ever - head high , wally and flwoing- reminding me of the days when the banks really used to be good - back in the mid 90s.

reos and floaters galore! Some really nice power and flow in the wave. Should be nicely set up for some time now

even managed to bust the tail out on the 10'5 on a reo! Its feeling more and more like shortboard surfing as time goes on..

Is there any joy with banks at Brighton?
Are you guys on Starboard 10'5?
I might come up with 9'6 psh if similar tomorrow pm.
Welcome to try.

Now don't be like that Hilly!My buddy is here discussing a weekend trip to Gnarloo.I think we need shorter boards to fit in his plane.You in?

Damn thing has a max payload of 320kgs.Not sure about you Windy but Hilly and I must stay on the low carb beers a little longer to get a ride.It does have a parachute though...to save the plane (Cirrus sr22) not the passengers...I'm not joking

i am on the Starboard 10'5 and loving it.

Saw Windy out yesterday - looked like he was on the pick of the banks - uop the front of ob city- saw lots of shortboard crew on long rights - looked like he was getting plenty too.

Brighton wasnt as good yesterday as the bank has straightened up a little and the swell dropped out - still fun though. But quite a few closeouts. Bring on the next NW stir!

I get comments about riding sucky closeout waves at scarbs - the short story is that i dont.

The trick is to Simply monitor the tides , banks and swells so that you are not riding the SUP out there when its heaving (read board snapping) - Scarbs has plenty of days when its lacking in a little power for shortboards and waist to chest high with form - thats when it is gold. And relatively safe for the boards too..

Yesterday was a good example of that. There were waves from City beach all the way to Trigg point to be ridden.

up here was good

super fun tonight at scarbs - it seems the low tides of an evening make the current bank configuration come alive!

Glass with an indo style sunset and 2 mates SUP surfing the peak- gold!! Some nice waist to shoulder sets coming through - fast lefts and rights. SUPPED till near dark- super stoked.

Couple of mals on to it and doing a nice job also.

PURE MAGIC.
