SP said.. Back into the grind after that holiday eh SMH....
Yeah mate. Been back at work for a while now. Had some crap weather and a lot of the time I'm off its been either too windy , too much swell or crap banks. I had a good run of waves on my holidays though. Have you been getting out ?
I've been off since April and that describes the whole winter SMH. Not enough surf to regain lost skills unfortunately. Back to work in a couple of weeks. :(

April / May was unreal down here (south coast ) really good weather and banks before the heavy stuff hit in June.
Got down there and it was tiny so I paddled up the beach and around the headland before coming back and catching around half a dozen ankle slappers then got out. Better than nothing. Hoping tomorrow might be better . We might get a little swell out of the south hopefully
The swell has picked up but nothing too exciting. Waist to shoulder high. Clean waves but the banks are a bit ordinary . Got a few so I'm happy. Heading to Sydney this weekend but will be down around the Ulladulla area on Monday and Tuesday and should be able to find some nice uncrowded waves. The weather is looking good too.
Beautiful day today compared to the last 7 we've had, nice n sunny at least with a light wind. Got down as the tide was about 0.7, wave period on a steady decline & everyone leaving except a mate who'd just got out. Really enjoyed it, but only surfed a couple of hours before my friend was heading off & I didn't want to surf alone...think I saw a couple of icebergs float by out the back which would account for the ridiculously bloody cold water
Surf with Dave Basher at the local. Surf was average but always great to get out. I must say, that McCoy mal is a great board. Perfect for around these parts.
Four guys. Long walls. Riding forward on towards the nose and allowed me to trim high and make sections I wasn't for the first half. Four to five foot. The rip was hideous so I was pretty stoked with my board choice. I reckon my wave count would have halved.
