Strange looking figure in the bottom right corner.

I'm thinking of hitting little noosa real early. The swell is real big so should be good waves on the inside there which should be the most protected area. I guess it all depends on the wind direction early.




You know where else would be good Oli in winds like this!

This swell is a bit scary for my limited experience and besides I've got work on tomorrow. I've got Friday off and will head down to Inverloch for the w/e The swell should die down and hopefully the winds will come off. Eagles Nest is perfectly protected from SW - NW of almost any strength, which ties in well with the high tides foretasted for early in the morning - which tends to limit the crowds down to one or two. Tomorrow should be great down at little Noosa early as long as the wind hasn't got too much kick in it. I'd love to surf Balnarring Point when the swell is like this. Here's a pic of it when it's working.

How you going Oliver,you've been a little quite of late
By the sound of things,your mad keen surfing your Strocker!
Just interested if you have changed your SUP mind, from flat
water to mainly surf,and if so how does the Strocker go in the
surf?

I really haven't been out that much on the board this summer. Been really busy at work and most week ends the weather have been crap for months. If I have a choice between flat and surf I go for the surf. Absolutely loving the stonker though.

Do you guy's have any photo's of little Noosa!

Little Noosa, it should be much bigger than this tomorrow but not as clean.



It rarely will look like this mac. This area, only really works when the ocean swell is 2m+ as it's inside a bay. Now the swell is about 6m but it's as windy as all hell:

Hey thanks Oliver,did you save one when I was riding a wave?
I think it breaks out of shot anyway.
Was a fun session inside there well sheltered from the winds.

Camo.

No sorry,

But I saw you down the bottom of there - great spot on a high tide and also protected from the S/W. Love how the waves continually reform. I noticed that the wind wasn't that strong and was blowing directly from the West around that time - good timing to be there then Camo.

BTW, we just had an average 5.51m swell with a peak at 8.58m with 14 to 16 second intervals at the real bouy which is absolutely massive. Crunchies now would be WAY over head high, probably double overhead.

Cam, i'll meet you down there just before 7am if you're keen! Oli?

Cheers Bnaccas, so where is it in relation to the CBD?
My sister lived down in Pattersen Lakes and I used to
travel to Mel-vegas a few times a year for work!
I met a family last year in Noosa QLD and they were
from PT LEO ?

See you there Brendan.

Camo.

So is that south of PL towards hmmm? Queenscliffe? no I think I am worry!
Is Pt Leo on the other side of the bay than PL?

Gee I am getting lost here!

Whoops sorry I was thinking of PT Lonsdale!

mac

Hey Windy, yeah that would have been Crunchies. You get Hobie cats out there as well plus kyaks, canoes, out riggers. It attracts all sorts!

Cammo, surfed Shelly this arvo. Was really good. When the tide filled in I got a couple head high. Got plenty of waves without being a hog. Right Pt was a solid 4' to 5' on the sets but a bit too busy.

Mac vicco has siicckk waves surfed here yesterday for 3 hours, then surfed the arvo at another place on my shortboard. Got an absolute bomb on my sub, the biggest wave of the morning!! The surf gods must have known It was birthday, thanks robdog for calling me into the beast

Great pics..

Cheers Dj very Impressed with your and the lads downwinder the other day, I was thinking of you guys, when after I surfed this spot, It is way too hard to get down the cliff with a sub, so we paddle down from another beach. Fine on the way down with the wind at your back and your fresh and keen, but on the way home into 25 knot head wind on a 9 6" after 3hrs in the surf, took us 15 mins to paddle down and 45 minutes to paddle home
