Freshy
After checking out Dee Why and Curly, I headed out the Curly headland to see what Freshy and Manly looked like. As it has over the last few days, Freshwater had a few very weak and tiny, but sort of catchable little waves in the north corner. The wind wasn’t doing it too much damage […]
Dee Why to Freshy this morning
Phone calls, email, notices in the paper, it’s all happening in the wheelhouse this morning. Okay, somewhat belatedly, here are a few snaps of the beaches at around rush hour this morning…
Curly to Freshy with a nod to Manly
Having seen the situation at Longy, I was unsurprised to find Curly looking ordinary. No one was in the water at the south end, and the two bods up the north end didn’t seem to be going anywhere. The tiny amount of energy in the ocean seemed to be getting a touch more focus in […]
Along the beaches, part the second
Went for a look at Curly & Freshy around 0830 after the school run. Curly was about the same as yesterday, but thanks to the lighter winds, it was looking a little more attractive. Not that many more in the water though. I wouldn’t want to be accused of overstating the situation though. The biggest […]
Curly & Freshy tiny but catchable
Wandered down to Curly and Freshwater for a look around 0900. Was curious to see if they were any better than Dee Why and Collaroy-Narrabeen. They were. But only just. There were five people in the water at mid-Curly, and they were it. Sets were struggling to get to waist high, but the bigger ones […]
Dee Why to Freshy
Hello Friends, Weak and small everywhere I looked this morning along the southern extent of the Northern Beaches. I started my run with a stop in at Long Reef to see what was doing. Not much, as it turned out. There were a couple bods in the water just south from the lifeguard hut, but […]
Swell, swell, nor any face to surf
After leaving Warriewood, I stopped for a quick squizz at Collaroy. The swell is getting in there, but at high tide it was not all that impressive. Only a few people in the water and they were doing a fair amount of waiting for the occasional waist to chest high slop burger sets. It […]
Wave hunt part 2
Bit of a delay between observation and report. Had to do a meeting. You know how it is. Anyway, after leaving Dee Why, I came over the hill to find Curly was just as fat and marginal. A few bods were in the water, but you wouldn’t say it was all that impressive. Long […]
Freshie Follies
Freshwater had a crowd of two when I stopped by for a look around 0740 this morning. The little east windswell is kinda working into the corner, but the high tide and short period are combining to make for rather weak conditions. If you waited long enough, I have no doubt there would be a […]
Freshy not firing but…
Freshy was reasonably populated this morning when I stopped by. Conditions were pretty similar to yesterday, ie long waits for something catchable. Difficult to get into them for the most part, but then that’s the deal with little, short period windswell. The best moments come in the last few seconds as the waves stand up […]
