went and checked the waves mid morning and was suprised its jumpped up again from the south

so downed the tools and snuck out for a few

first wave was a cracker totally undergunned on the banana 9'3

snapped my 12ft leggie after a few more

went in grabbed another and head butted my way back out

a mate rocked up and filmed 3 waves for me on my video camera so i'll post a short vid for you boarder paul later

but as usual as soon as you pull out a camera it turned onshore

hope this southerly pulse lasts longer than the last weeks flash swell

fingers crossed for the early tomorrow and i dont sleep in again

wooooooooohoooooooooooo

Hopefully we will get some of your pulse swell up here ,we have just had a couple of weeks of the gnarly shore break , board snapping stuff and so hard to punch through.

hope it gets bigger for tomorrow morning

but not looking forward to head butting my way out though a few sets as there is no channel to sneak out through

spewing my mate didnt get many waves on vid before the onshore hit but beggers cant be choosers

quality is crap and looks friggin small compared to being out there

sorry about the music

phil hope for your sake it heals quick dude

by the way you can come up here and film any time dude

love your work

lacey yes you are correct

the head butting back out the back is tough work and it pays to have a quick look over your shoulder to see whats coming behind the one your taking off on to decide if you pull off early to scrape back out or ride it all the way to the beach and head butt back out from scratch

homie yaa ally

the spot is a swell magnet and it is always a 1ft or 2 or 3 bigger than anywhere else around town

the left off the point 500m up the beach is all time on its day

i know how you love lefts matty

Solid Dogman! Good work, I can only imagine trying to get out (especially on a 9'3" Naish). That in itself deserves a clap!

Solid surfing dogman. Looks like a workout getting back out to the line up. Most of the spots I surf have nice big channels to run away to. Nothing worse than getting caught inside on an SUP. Hands down the worst thing about SUP!!! I guess we have to pay the price for all the waves we get on an SUP.

Damm you dogman, stop telling us how good your waves are i'm not interested!!!!!!! I drove south today just too late and the wind was up DAMMMM. Solid 4 foot at cudgen and 1 ft at the alley. Maybe tomorrow

We are road triping down to Mambo so if you are going we should hook up and surf and film all the way down the coast
