Just back from some nice waist to shoulder high waves. It was a bit slow at first then the tide started coming in and it seemed to get a lot better. Really nice long fast lefts. Broke my leggie straightening out on a closeout and my board was retrieved by a lovely looking woman in a bikini so that that was nice too. All up it was a good day. Rode the 11 footer.

Not much doing here either. We had a bit of a northeast swell but this horrible south east wind came up and wrecked it. Doesn't matter though because I've caught dozens of waves over the past two days. There'll be more

That looks good Ted. It's pumping down here too but the east - south east wind is wrecking it everywhere.

Yeah that does look good Ted.

I threw a couple of shorties in the car & was expecting to surf the local beachie. But I had a look at the local first which only had a couple of 666'ers & some fun little knee to waist high waves. Figured a few of those would be more fun than close outs, so washed the dust off my 666 instead

3-4ft on the sets here . Was not glassy,just a bit of lump.

Report said one ft musher burger so I took the logrom

Had a mate kindly lend me a 7'4 single. Really nice board,just weird for not having any hard edges in the rail and a rolled/flat bottom instead of my usual concave.

I did learn how a good surfer can ride anything...this board was so flat I could not do my usual bottom turn or it was bye bye nose dive

Water was lovely

Different story here today. Wind has gone south east and theres nothing on offer. Heading down the coast to see a mate tomorrow around the Ulladulla area so I'm pretty sure there will be a few waves on down there.

Thanks Mac and smh,just got back from physio,feel about 50% better now but still there.I get bulging discs Mac and they press or pinch the nerves in my lower back,I've been getting it for 15 odd years now but just gets worse and lasts longer Dont worry Mac mate,you aren't the only one to nearly cry,I can usually handle a bit of pain but this just drives me insaine.It does go away after about 2 weeks then I'm right as rain like nothings happened,I'm off work for a few days now because my job I do is bending and lifting most of the day(Gardener).Cheers fellas

Thanks smh,I've thought many times about surgery but that is my most definite last resort,like you say more exercise is probably needed,I'm a bit lazy like that sometimes Ah yeah forgot about Green Island ,Manyana,Backs
Thanks Pup,bloody did it at work ,but can't get compo,it's been an on going thing mate for years,getting waves mate,hope all's well,you glorious golden wordsmith,hahaha
One saving grace today for me today was I called in to see Bob Brown and ordered a new 10 footer
