One thing you will discover about SUP's is it is hard to paddle onto a wave if it is blowing strong offshore, for that matter strong wind from any angle makes things difficult.
If the wind is up as forecast you will have to try to find somewhere a bit protected, I'm more likely to be on a (long) short board tomorrow.

Don't let that strong off shore put you off easier to paddle out just that longer board may take a bit to get into the wave or just sit in the pocket turn and go 6 bit late 4.50 light mind you wind may be backing down bit later who cares go all day

well that was a waste of time... 5am wake up hardly any swell and south winds making it chopy... seems the early worm doesnt always catch the wave.. shoulda stayed in bed :)

Yep what happened to that swell did the early got a few small waves at cables outer what a wast of money on that artificial reef which I am told was a great little reef Crays fish etc etc
Still did not break to often so nothing's changed .
We all surfers need to lobby hard for more groyens and sand bag reefs As sup number grow quicker than any other surf sport . Well that's enough on my soap box .
Next swell Iam back south least it breaks down there

Yea was disappointing, was hoping for more at iso's but tide was too low and southerly was making it a bit crumbly....
