Back again.

After leaving Dee Why, I rushed past Longy without detouring for a closer inspection and instead hooked a right to run down for a squiz at Whiterock, Brownwater and Collaroy. Didn’t seem to be anything amazing happening it has to be said. However a really nice little set popped up at Brownwater and for just a second it looked magnificent (see photo below)

Making us green with envy, Huey.

There were a few bods around at Collaroy doing the longboard and SUP thing. Sets looked to be into the chest high range, but mostly they were much smaller. The usual long waits applied.

Meanwhile, if you’d had the necessary tow equipment, there might have been some juicy options way offshore on that bomby north of Makaha. I reckon it looks almost island style…

Somewhere north of Makaha

Went up to where the old Tea Gardens once stood and checked the crunchy action there for long enough to grab a few snaps. The basic deal was that they were mostly closing out, but if you were in the right spot, it was possible to hook into some nice, if very brief walls. Definite board breaking potential and as with everywhere else I looked this morning, pretty unpopulated. Funny what cold wind and the end of school hols will do…

Smaller ones seemed to be more consistently makeable at Gardens around 1000

Gardens empty for your contemplation

Grinder rolls into far north Collaroy

Backwash really popped this wall up at south Narra.
