Hmm! whats that yellow and black striped thing in your hat?
OH I SEE! its a "Bee in your BONNET".
Go get em tiger......

I'd prefer the cams to be switched off as well and go off the observations.
That way a lot of people wouldn't know where to go to get the best waves!

Oliver, I'm not talking about supping, there isn't enough of us to bother me on the water. It's the part time surfers that flock to the good spots when they are working. I've never been SUPPING in the surf yet with more than 3 SUP's in the water.

I've always been against surf cams but over the past couple years have learnt to live with it and try help people with finding good spots etc. There's plenty of waves. You may have misunderstood me a little.

If you know how many hits the Triggers surf cams get per day you would agree it can't be the 100 or so SUPers making up the numbers.

p.s. I hope you didn't get your space invaded during the 80's gay movement.

I keen as to do a downwinder.
I used to have no interest in them at first but now I'm coming around. Beats driving to sometimes poor surf conditions. I just need a bigger board and I'm in. I'm meant to be driving to the snow in 5 hours. Hope you get good waves down Invi way.

This is me in 1 -2 ft surf on the trusty Kalama the first week I got it .

In regards to the small surf of late Brooko the swellnet forcaster explains in his extended outlook that the swell is being directed north off W.A and up towards Indo but says this pattern is about to change and we should see some decent size waves heading towards Vic in the coming month.Will wait and see it can only get better,

Oliver, the most accurate camera for checking "surface conditions" on the Surf Coast, chop/lumps etc, in regard to good sup conditions, is the Trigger bros Torquay still cam, 1 or 2. Also gives very good indication of size, as there is normaly people out.
Most "surf reports" don't report this in any detail.

I reckon Boardroom Bobs photos are pretty good as they have elevation and you can gauge the swell except when he is out enjoying himself which results in a late post but which itself is a good indication that the surf is on for prone anyway.
