Scraps

Hello Friends, Not much of anything showing on the MHL directional spectra plot for Sydney this morning. What we have is coming out of the NE at about 6 seconds apart and a metre out at sea. There were a few small peaks along the Dee Why to Longy stretch for the early, but if […]

Golden Moments

Just one of those mornings you want to be floating around.  Some 2 ft leftovers hanging in there which I think is actually NE windswell thats cleaned up overnight.  Looked fun on dawn if you had a longboard or weighed under 55kg . Not much promising for the weekend sorry.  Enjoy Friday Mark – Surfboards […]

The Goat’s Surf Forecast

Surf forecast issued Thursday 30 May 2013: Seven day outlook for Sydney: Winter’s at the door…ain’t been here yet but I don’t want him for sure.. unless he brings nice waves. But not just yet Friday, Saturday: 1 metre or less North East Sunday: same at first then starting to coem up later with a […]

Clean and fun looking early

Hello Friends, What a run of surf we’ve had. After a very ordinary start, autumn decided to finish up with a few weeks of more on than off swell. A harbinger for the winter surf season perhaps? Anyway, this morning sees the swell energy tailing off, but since there’s about a 9 second average period […]

Steaming

The lifting fog and warm ocean made the surf look cool this morning. Need to up my photo skills to match the view but there was some fun looking head high stuff this morning.  Might have been one of those surfs that looks better from the shore as there was some mixed up swells and […]

Sunny start and waves to play with

Hello Friends, Swell is fading in line with expectations, but there were definitely waves to be had as of 0730. It’s still coming mainly from the SE, but is now about 1.5 metres on average at sea and the period is just shy of the 13 second mark. Swell is set to weaken toward midday, […]

Hooray! More waves!

Hello Friends, Wind was light as the day got started, but the swell is still pushing along at around 2.5 metres from the SE with an average period of 10-11 seconds. So, there are still some impressive bomb sets showing up at the magnet spots. Dee Why beach was looking pretty lined up and inclined […]

Still a few clean ones this morning

  Hello Friends, Swell has shifted away from yesterday’s more easterly mix to something closer to south. There are a few sets about thanks to the 2.5 metres of SSE swell at 9 seconds apart, but it is much less consistent than yesterday. The day started out drizzly and grey, but it was glassy and […]

Lucku Sunday

Beautiful conditions today and eased back to a respectable but solid 4ft+ so the crowds will be frothing today.  9am high tide has things a bit fat in places so timing mid morning before the wind shifts will help.  Don’t expect to be alone as it is Sunday and word is out.  Have fun Mark […]

Time to go surfin’

Hello Friends, The short version? Get out there if you know what you’re doing, and watch if you don’t. Swell energy is strongest from the east this morning, but there’s SE component still in the mix. Average period is around the 10 sec mark, but with some longer period energy in the mix to keep […]
