Maybe not in your area mate.... but we had some fun ones while the bank lasted

Sorry buddy must have missed the invite

The longest run of poor conditions I've seen in years.

Huey is loving me this year already must be all that good karma coming back in spades !

Some fun waves to start the year off, bigger than expected, clean & surprisingly uncrowded apart from the mums & dads on the beach who rocked up later

Hopefully a little bit left over for tomorrow. Friends are gonna be staying with us & their daughter wants to learn too surf.

Bring back the Thumbs down!

3 great fun surfs today. Boards are all packed away sadly as have to fly out tom. Probably not bother surfing in Bali on the way home. Just relax and eat some good Food. Probably no more surfing for me for a few months. Lucky I got my fill this last month.

Good on ya Ted,good to see ya getting some nice waves mate ,I'm jealous

Caught up with Pup early at guess where???? - Kirra carpark
Not much on offer there so off to meet mac at LM, we were greeted with around 1' of clean swell and we made the best of it. Mac's new nose rider went brilliantly, a beautiful board!!
I had the new 11'11 out for it's maiden voyage and made an absolute pig of myself, the fact you can sit out that bit further and be up and on before others are paddling means I'll have to learn some restraint at times.

It glides on really easily and just flows through the dead sections and picks up the reforms well. take a couple of steps forward and she just takes off, almost too fast and then you have to pull it back into the shoulder again. Overall I'm stoked with it, great job Mr Goddard!!

Good to hear you boys enjoying your big boards. That's gonna be my goal to get one this year too

We did go for a second surf yesterday arvo which was perfect for kids. Some soft rollers off to the side of the local that had 'em stoked. Was a bit challenging for them at the beachie this morning, swell was a bit big for them at the occasional double over head for them & about shoulder height for me. So a bit of foam bashing on the inside was the go. Was stoked they had a good time. Even saw some dolphins surfing the waves which really impressed them

On dayshift all week with only Thursday off. Got some ok south swell here but hoping the wind will be good for Thursday.

Good on ya V and Mac,sounds like ya's had some fun Glad the new board goes good for ya mate ,you're allowed to make a pig of yourself when you get a new board

Thanks mate, 3-1/2 hours and a guy swearing at me just brings a smile to my face. I offered to discuss it further with him on the beach but he paddled away.........

hahahaha,yeah funny how some guys like mouthing off but don't want that further discussion

Few of the lads have been saying it's been a bit heated at times that joint lately mate - you will have to impose yourself & restore order champion

Some lovely little LM sliders on my 9.10 this morning,I love these overcast days.

Good work mate.

I left home at 2am to meet up with Pup and Lance, Pup got to Arra before me and reported that not much was on offer so we proceeded to main beach and had 2-1/2 hours of nice little A-frame sliders. New board performed flawles.

Another road trip geez Pup should move and move into Lance's place
