Greyness early
Posted on November 2nd, 2009 in Dee Why.Hello Friends,
Looking grey and grim it has to be said. Almost no swell about either. The buoy data from up and down the NSW coast is pretty much the same: about a metre of short period east windswell.
Here in Sydney the average period is sitting on a choppy 6 sec, so you’ll be struggling to find anything above knee high at the best exposed spots. And it has to be said that we’re looking at no improvement for at least the next 24 hours. A south change is set for tomorrow and once that happens we could possibly get a brief influx of south windswell for Wednesday. The models suggest that from Thursday into Sunday we could have a fair amount of SE to ESE wind and with it some short period east windswell into the surfable range.
Oh well… that’s springtime for ya! Go well with your day
The Bureau sez:
Sydney Closed Waters, Pittwater, Port Jackson and Botany Bay:

Crystal Ball Gazing…what’s your guess?

Mostly glass Monday but small

The Big Three, In Byron Bay Today
Posted on November 2nd, 2009 in Byron, How To . . ., Local Colour, Surf politics.After viewing hours of absolute chaos out The Pass today I decided it’s about time for a Reminder about The Big Three, In Byron Bay Today. Ok guys here’s three really important surf safety tips for all you beginners out there. You must develop mastery of these three basic skills before you move into the main crowd on any break no matter how big or small it may be:
- You need to be able to turn your board confidently and accurately while riding a wave to avoid hitting another surfer without falling off.
- You need to be able to paddle out while avoiding collisions or ruining another surfer’s wave by being able to quickly and accurately, assess the situation. Then make a split second decision to paddle out of the way of an oncoming surfer.
- You need to be willing and able to successfully take the hit from the white water, without ever letting go of your board or panicking and paddling in front of an oncoming surfer.
If you cannot honestly tell yourself that you are in possession of these three simple skills, then you have no business paddling into a crowded surf break in the first place. This may sound harsh, but it is not negotiable, it’s not about surfing hierarchy. It is entirely about public safety. Surfers, both resident and visitors alike have a right to feel safe in the water, In Byron Bay Today.
