Far out, saw Brownie's snapped 12 footer today, in Pink.
Super pin tail. Side biters are about 2 feet off the tail!
Snapped at 8 foot Cathedral Rock.
Here's Cathedral Rock on a different day. It's down near Lorne, Vic.
Thanks for that Simondo. You boys certainly get some nice looking big waves down your way - its just a shame that it is so cold!!!!
mac if they waves like that in Orewa they'd still be talking about in 50yrs time ![]()
Mac's just throwing me some bait! ![]()
There was the odd fat one in there though... No shortage of grunt though.
That swell was OK, but not great. Notice the howling off/cross winds. Blinds your eyes, and combined with cold water and wind, and an ice-cream head, it can be a bit disorientating, unfortunately. ![]()
What you do for a wettie simo?![]()

Manup TTK I'm still wearing the short-john. I'm just adding the SS rashy.
On the subject of wetties, I left mine at the beach on Saturday morning and a mate of MichaelR picked it up for me. That means I had to surf in my billabong springy on Sat arvo and Sun morn.
I disliked it so much, I went down to drippingwet and got a good deal on a peak climax 2.2 with the chest zip.
My god those things are hard to get into compared to a back zip, and the peak was the easiest. But once they're on, they're mighty comfy.
haven't tried it in the water yet.
