More Manly Junk

More of the same onshore crappy surf.  2 foot or so and not appealing at all.  Nice day to go back to work if you can call going back to work nice. – Surfboards Direct

Not today

Its looking bleak out there this morning.  A strong E winds is making the 2 foot wind swell just bump and slop.  Only for the most keenest of keen.  Enjoy.  Surf Photos of You.

Stronger and Uglier

Wind is stronger and surf is uglier than yesterday.  A touch more size so your best best is the protected south corners to find any rideable combination.  Good luck though. And it with great sadness our clubby “friends” have their last day of  patrols today.  I will miss the sweet sound of that whistle telling me […]

Lest we forget

Manly is really crappy, onshore and small this morning.  Still amazed how many keen people there are but I guess that’s Manly and I guess we’ve all been there.  Should be more size and more junk at beaches that can pick up the south swell.  Keep an eye on the wind throughout the day for a […]

Shire Rpt

Rainy, windy, messy, small. Didn’t see anyone get a wave, and the conditions were so grey I couldn’t get a close-up anyway

Happy Easter Sunday.  Hope you had heaps of chocolate.  The waves have backed off abit this morning but is expected to rise later today or tomorrow.  Tide a bit low early so maybe a lunch time surf will be the go.  Enjoy Surf Photos of You.

Chilly, overcast, small, glassy, pretty weak

SE swell has eased back to small 1-2ft at Manly.  Really not doing a lot early.  Wind is a nice offshore at the moment so you have plenty of time to hunt around for somewhere picking up a bit more or the right bank.  The wind is forecast to swing to the SE later so […]

Where did those perfect conditions go

Grey, raining, cold air (warm water) and 2ft short period waves.  Despite this there are a good number of keen people out attacking it.  Surface is at least nice and clean and wind is offshore.  Wind is supposed to swing to the SE and swell pick up a little so I guess sooner rather than […]

Shire Rpt

Boost in size, drop in power means grey windswell in the shoulder-high range. Lots of bumps, but few of them providing satisfying rides
