Best w/e of waves we have had for quiet some time. Not big but 3ft with a few bigger ones - close to perfection so no complaints. 4 fun sessions already and hoping for another 2 before the day is out. Summer crowds levels are creeping back in though. No photos as have been at a semi secret spot (along with a few others sadly) Hope you all getting some. The swellnet surf report has been very funny again....we get a 5/10 today yet when its been close to flat and windy the last few weeks we have been getting 4/10 !!! Madness. Hopefully everyone is following it closely


I never go to the beach without checking it

But yes few waves this weekend.... Thank god...

3 surfs in two days, at Dee Why and Longy. Good for the first hour of each, junk for the second.

Glad I have the Diverse 10'1", I don't think I would have had such fun on smaller.

Torquay this weekend... average!! Well below average... Gardening this morning, and supermarket shop early afternoon....

If I didn't do the gardening, I was actually going to dust down the 666... and get it wet...

oh know....it must be missing you. We had a few decent sized sets this morning - certainly would not kill ya but lots of fun....the 5'10" was struggling on the bigger ones The crowd was epic - normally would expect to surf with 10 to 15 others on a Sunday morning where I was today - but by 7:30am there must have been 60 in the water and the car park was full.....ahhhh the next few weeks will probably kill me

We are just not getting anything Ted at Port Stephens, 1ft max, but still packed within 1/2 hour even though I am in the water at 4:45am. I have had to surf the 666 a lot lately as I hate grovelling amongst the crowds on the mal so I paddle way down the beach into shark breeding territory.

Just had a look at the forecast shares on the BOM site and it looks like a low forming up north QLD and drifting south. Waves coming by the look of it. Might be a good year for cyclone swells up there.

I am surfed out....shoulders hurt...need to recover in time for the morning session. Weird up here at the moment - loads of people around but I seemed to have been timing my sessions and locations well and not had a crowded surf yet. Surfed late morning and there were 15 out when I arrived and 7 came in before I got down to the jump off point - surfed for an hour and a half and then 5 more paddled out so I called it quits.....a mate surfed that spot this morning with 20 others at 7am....I surfed somewhere else with just 4. So perhaps I should buy a lottery ticket!

As SMH and Prawn have pointed out its looking mint for you QLDers next week......love to come up and share some with ya but not until Jan is over and school is back in session. When it is I will be doing a northward drive though!
