Sunday Busy Sunday

Some nice waves about this morning but a pretty hefty Easter weekend crew. Obviously the weather put off a lot of people going away.  Sets are nice and almost 4ft if you can get one.  8:45am high tide might be making a few short.  Wind is forecast to go from offshore around to sideshore south. […]

Little NE

Was a few almost 2ft NE windswell bumps this morning in manly.  Started glassy but the NE’er was close and is up by now.  Probably one of the more surfable spots today…just Mark – Surfboards Direct

Grey Tiny Clean

Tiny empty clean waves at manly this morning for the longboard crew. Longboard a must! Mark – Surfboards Direct

Same but less the same

More of the same kind of swell but a touch less energy and light onshores are up already.  There’s been plenty of waves so I know I’m not as amped as other days.  Not sure if any of that hyped up swell is actually ever going to materialise but hey at least we have waves. […]

Saturday Fun

Some nice condition for Saturday. 3ft or so of ENE swell and light winds.  Was tough to find a lot of good ones for the morning crew. Might be more as the tide drops from an 11 am high Mark – Surfboards Direct

Not much gettin in

Not a lot getting into Manly.  Longboarders even paddling hard. The 9:30am high wont be helping.  South magnets might be better before the wind comes up. Mark

Still plenty o swell

Still plenty o swell around. This morning at Manly would normally be great as the roads are closed for a fun run until 9:30 which helps keep the locals in and tourists out however the 6:42am high tide is making the closeouts worse.   Swell seems a touch more south.  Size varies from probably 6ft […]

Boardies weather?

Some nice waves for the dawn crew. Not sure how so many guys managed in boardies?! That wind was fresh.  Some exciting looking surf over the next few days.  Its bloody good to have swell!! Mark – Surfboards Direct

Funday Sunday

Great morning for waves with clean conditions and 4ft of East swell rolling in.  Onshores are forecast then a southerly buster due at some point which may or may not hammer things.  Hope you got a few early. Expect Sunday crowds. High tide 1pm Mark

Mixed Bag

Got up super early and ended up doing the tour (without camera sorry).  Manly had some solid sets at dawn without much wall that have now seem to have stopped leaving mainly 3 foot messy stuff with the odd bomb, bigger at North Steyne.  A clubby comp has shut that half of the beach and […]
