Coldwater classic in Santa Cruz (again), a few links from Madagascar where it looks they’re gonna have waves this week, Castlepoint in NZ for the best of a bad bunch among the surf cams (but Trigg gets a link).
I know, I told you about this in the weekend wrap, so this is just a quick reminder that you can watch the Lane on live cams (such as this one) to see how the coldwater classic in Santa Cruz is going. I checked out the day one highlights video. It’s worth a look because it gives you a good idea of what the Lane’s like on a typical fun size day. Sun goes down in California at about noon our time.
Looks like not only southern Africa, but Madagascar and the Indian ocean generally are loaded up with swell at the moment. According to one blogger called Mada moreorless, Madagascar is pretty fickle but it’s real frontier territory. Here’s a somewhat funky vid made by some Austrian snowboarders(!) about surfing and travelling around Magascar. And here’s a much more impressive offering…
Had to hunt around for a cam worth mentioning, and then it’s only just so. Really nothing on the cams around Australia that I could find. Everywhere seems to be puny and uninteresting looking (WA has the most interesting looking I could find, eg here’s how Trigg is looking). Put me wise if you find something, okay? The cam of interest is one on the SE coast of North Island NZ. It’s pointed at a place I’ve actually surfed, namely Castlepoint.
