Ice cold wind straight offshore into clean swell.

0730 and the Point is in full cry - with crew to match.

Hello Friends,

I’m in awe of those tough sorts that paddled out at first light this morning when the temp was below 10 and the wind was whistling along at 10kts. But given the conditions, one can easily understand. The swell has cleaned up, tide is dropping, and the SSE sets are looking solidly overhead. Not only that, they’re arriving with reasonable regularity.

The crew is all over it at Dee Why point. Lots of folks trying to jam a couple very memorable waves into the gap between first light and turning up at work or school on time. There were a couple attractive looking a-frames down the beach as well.

I’m keen to get down there with a camera, so I might draw a line under this for now, but I plan to be back later on with some fresh new pics for your amusement.
