Manly and Northy (plus vid)
At 0830 North Steyne looked the goods. Only four people in the water too. Of course you needed to be a very good female surfer to be in the group. High percentage of closeouts along the Manly stretch, but while it was afflicted too, North Steyne had the best waves I would see between Manly […]
Northy little wind swell (vid)
Hot Thursday afternoon but happily for the lucky crew at Northy, there were a few soft little peaks on offer to make cooling off all the more pleasant.
Looks like the swell’s starting to fill in at Northy (vid)
It was tiny this morning, but when I checked Northy around 1100, the swell was clearly evident. Carpark Rights were doing their crunchy thing and although busy, the waves were coming frequently enough that you didn’t have long to wait for your turn. Check out how many takeoff there are in this 90-sec clip…
Ok size at the magnets but…
Hello Friends, The NE’r was making itself felt at 0700, but there were shoulder plus waves to be had if you were in the right spot at the right time. The combo of 9sec 2.4 metre SE and a similar size NE wind swell was providing ample energy. That said, when I checked the Dee […]
North Narrabeen at midday Christmas Eve
Out on pre-xmas errands and swung by for a look at Northy. Pretty messy, but also reasonably consistent and some fun little sections to be had in the mix. Not super crowded for the circumstances either…
Video minute: North Narrabeen late morning Tuesday 15 Dec 2015
Stopped by Northy late morning to see if there was anything worthy of surfing. There was, sort of…
Manly, Northy pics
Around 0900 I checked Manly and then North Narrabeen (via Curly) As you can see from the pictures below, Manly was pretty awful. Hardly anyone in the water there, and around at Curly there were only a scattering of folks right up at the north end. Conditions were raw and messy and although there was […]
Surfin’ Saturday for Sydney
Hello Friends, Interesting mix of NE and SE swell this morning in Sydney. The SE component was dominant and according to the MHL data wwas 1.5 metres at 9 seconds. So, it’s definitely smaller than yesterday. That said, I saw chest plusses at North Narrabeen, Long Reef and No Man’s on my run around this […]
Knee to waist plusses here and there
Hello Friends, Saturday started off with glassy conditions along the northern beaches. We had a touch under a metre of 10-sec east wind swell too. For the most part it was producing weak little sub waist high peaks here and there. There were waves from about No Man’s to the life guard hut at Longy […]
Definitely a few waves around from Manly to North Narrabeen
A few pictures from my Manly to RealSurf HQ run earlier this morning. Swell has come up slightly since this morning’s report and while the tide is making most places pretty fat, there are waves to be had at all the beaches I checked. Maybe as the tide drops, and if the wind holds off… […]
