"Stay happy and you'll be perfectly fine" - Jack Norris

Saturday wrap

Hello Friends,

Swell faded through the day, but there were still the occasional bomb sets at the really exposed spots. I spent some time hanging out with a couple mates at Dee Why, so I got a good chance to check out the action at the beach and point. There were a couple zones of intensity along the Dee Why to Longy stretch – one at the super peak and another up toward the pole. Very big crowds on both of them but I’d say one or two waves would’ve made it all worthwhile. Around 3pm I decided to get wet, so paddled out at the point. Pretty quiet and only three or four of us bumbling around grabbing the little waist to chest high sets. Definitely nowhere near as good as the beachy, but the crowd setting suited me down to the ground on this particular occasion.

I’ve got Panasonic’s FT-1 waterproof point and shoot camera to test out at the moment, so I took it with me this afternoon and grabbed a couple snaps. The water shots weren’t interesting enough to share (protecting the identities of the innocent).
