WEEKLY REPORTS for 2009
Report No: 05-09
Period: Monday 26th January to Sunday 1st February.
Monday. High tides @ 6.53an & 7.02pm. The swell was still hanging about around head high & very glassy. Lefts & rights out @ Resorts, which were really barreling. With only 2 of them out they got a heap of waves for about 2 hours in the morning.
Tuesday. High tides @ 7.24am & 7.36pm. Early surf at Resorts. The swell had dropped a bit over night and was around shoulder to head high with still some great waves in super glassy conditions and only a few crew in the water. An arvo session out front in similar conditions to the AM.
Wednesday. High tides @ 7.58am & 8.13pm. One of the guides took the jetski with one surfing guest to Special K. where sets were up to head high and a bit of a wait between. But it was certainly worth the wait with the swells lining up beautifully and running down the reef nicely. Clean glassy conditions with absolutely no one around.
Thursday. High tides @ 8.34am & 8.52pm. The swell had continued to drop in size and was pushing in around waist to chest high so the crew a few fun little ones at Resorts in a rather short session.
Friday. High tides @ 9.17am & 9.38pm. Super clean conditions on the south side, with light offshore winds. Unfortunately only waist high swell. Little rights at Resorts.
Saturday. High tide @ 10.09am. A nice new SSW swell arrived and with clean conditions, all the spots they checked had waves. Opted for Coco’s which was easily the biggest with the occasional set double head high on the take off. Most were around head high and a few barreled if you picked the right one. The wind came up light from the SSE and it was enough to make it section so they moved to Pebbles which was also a little wind affected but had a nice shape. Both the back peak and inside section had good waves with the occasional one linking through.
Sunday. High tide @ 11.12am. Spent most off the day at Pebbles which was particularly good for the first 3 hrs with not a drop of water out of place. The swell was hitting it well with lots of easy barrels on offer. A good fun size, and the sets were just big enough to keep you on your toes but not life threatening.
