Sorry for the late report, but i just left a 2.5hour epic shredblast ripfest at the alley. If your are reading this now i hope you have been out and got wet because it was sensational! A big jump in swell overnight with 4-5ft through snapper off the rock with some beautiful lines of 3 through rainbow and greeny. Kirra had a good 3ft with a nice offshore breeze. The alley was the standout through with up to 6 foot off the rocks and 4-5 over the laceys side after a sucky post dawn low tide. Overhead barrels, massive faces and long rides are the order of the day Chico is complaining about having one leg bigger than the other after his long rides on his little red shred sled. A few other options around, but most of the beachies are too straight and massive to hold a good wave up. Could be even better tomorrow for those that can get out into the lineup without wearing too many on the head. Send your wife to Robina and get out there and get wet! pmh

Surf report

Effective From: Mon 25 Jul 07:27AM

The buoys are saying 2-3 foot but the waves off snapper rocks and the alley are still saying hell yeah get your ticket for a first class ticket to shredsville! its a little smaller than yesterday but the set waves are still around the 4ft mark through the alley, laceys and snapper. D'Bah is choked and straight and rainbow and greeny are getting a few 2-3 footers. Theres 90% less crowd factor this morning but there also 90% less temperature factor, with some cold water currents running around the toes at dawn. A good chance to get a few if you got dragged to pacific fair by the girlfriend or your metro-man for the weekend. Chico doesnt rate metros. pmh

Simondo,it was late call on my behalf however I sent the wife and daughter to Melbourne Thursday arvo 5.30 flight.They were booked to arrive home 10.30 Saturday night but got bumped and had to stay another night

Re the surf report,Saturday surfed for a solid 2 hours some lunch hit Pac Fair for some work cloths,30 minutes done and dusted,pair of shoes,2 x polo's and a sweet jacket.
If the wife was with me,it would have been a 4 hour affair.

Then I took my other daughter to the footy Saturday nightonly to served beers by my son who works there

We've had a pretty good run lately tankchamp.Seems every week we are getting most days with waves,dies off for a day and a new swell comes.

Its still good today and looking that way for the week.

left and dropped in on many,so I dropped in about three times
and faded him twice haha revenge is sweet.

There were two super agro guys out at snapper not young blokes neither.
