10ft on Friday they reckon. Noosa and Jas's secret spot might cope up here, but the wind's predicted to be howling onshore.

Maybe just hope the sand gets rearranged into better banks?

Besides, I'll be nursing my torn heartilage.

Nice swell up here already today.

Noosa Points have a few small ones that are fun on the lower tide.

Open beaches are a bit blown out though.

The forecast has changed a bit (as it so often does). Now they are saying swell will kick a fair bit Friday and max out on Saturday at 8 ft plus with onshore winds all day. Hope it makes your bad banks good and your good banks even better. Then again, they could be wrong. It has happened.

That was the first thing that entered my mind when I seen the charts...... There's no less than 12 very nice little banks along my stretch right now... would be a shame to lose them to an unsurfable mush festival.

Looks on the surfcam like there are a few quite nice sliders at the Sunny Coast's not-so-secret spot, at least.
(The fooking rain doesn't seem to have scared anyone off.)

Well thought I'd go for a surf, it's pumping here, some big sets going through, caught three waves,on my third wave in I caught the reef in the shore break.
right on the head.mates watching on beach said they thought I was dead. One bloke in the car park asked,, if I broke my board.

I thought, it wasn't that bad just a red mark on top of the GOOG.

driving home lost part vision in the right eye.
the boss checked me out and said no grog and no surf till tomorrow
all good now,,just a splitting headache. Hope this post makes sense.

I will write this now and read tomorrow,

Cobra ,stop thinking you are 18.

Sunday could possibly be game on. Light winds and less swell. Thank goodness.

Edit: Just saw this in the news: The wild conditions dislodged shark control nets on the Sunshine Coast on Friday.One net washed ashore at Marcoola Beach and another disconnected at one end near Mooloolaba, where an 11m wave was recorded in the morning.
