Well it was wasn't it but I didn't mean to be cruel
I'm installing froth to JB as he will soon be there
Thanks Mac, i need a lift after being back at work for two whole days now
I have been watching a few videos and getting rather amped. Still struggling on boards to bring or buy or hire or what the hell too many options and I'm crap at making decisions.
You'd wanna hit the next beach East JB or one of the many places within 40 mins South. Pass is always crowded big or small when its offshore...everywhere else is better anyway
Oh yeah & they have paid parking

Next beach East? Wouldn't that be in NZ
Ill have to get some more info on fun long rights for the SB but for the time with the kids out the front and the pass should be ideal. We have a house at Clarke's tourist park so fingers crossed its okay. But that pick Mac shared will do me just fine.
Hopefully on holidays ill get enough time to surf constantly. between hikes and sightseeing..
4-6 foot with seven blokes, four of whom were from Perth and didn't want to know about waves over double head high. Lots and lots of set waves on the 8'.
Second surf was 4-5 with at least 50 people. As I was suiting up I mentioned to my mates that no one was on the outside peak and I was going to sit there and own it. 45 minute surf, 7 waves. Stoked. The longboard did me good although the biggest wave it failed me and lost rail on a wally one after hitting a bump. My mate paddled for one, I was outside of him and rolled on past him before making the drop. He couldn't even get into it on hi new seven footer. "GET YOURSELF A LONGBOARD MATE!"
Yes Climber - great shot. I received a text from a mate this morning telling me had the best wave of his life today - not too far from you - he was absolutely stoked beyond belief.
I have but one word for here today
GROOOOOOOMED
Great pic. Looks like main beach at Yamba.
Pumping here today with a south west wind. A few banks have been formed by this rain with a small rivermouth here dishing up some nice barrels. Too windy at the moment for the barge so I'll check it later. Glad to see the end of this rain we've had.
cooly looks a bit of alright this afternoon on the cams
unfortunately ive got a pizza face atm
I'm sure the boys won't care how you look

It'll probably get you more waves. A mate of mine used to take out his front tooth - he lost it in a surfing accident at 13 - then paddle out with a big smile on his face.
Take your pizza face out with a snarl and own it.
This afternoon the wind was favourable and the sun came out. Here are a couple shots that Muzz took from Sprout Daily. Things really cleaned up were I was this arvo. Tom morning should be great fun as well

Do you ride the same board or do you have a gun for bigger stuff?
The local point, surf was good, but I hardly got a thing, the inside Groomies were just out of control, they were doing my head in, no matter where you took off from, they were there about 20 meters inside like a plague of locusts.
Hopefully this arvo. Did the dawny, drove down a crappy 4wd track for 45 minutes. As I started downhill the ocean came into view and it was just rippled with a light offshore. Yeeeewww! Got to the joint. In the distance, the long left was sectioning, in front of me the dodgy right was dodgy, rip affected and barely breaking; the smoking left barrel had ripples from the wind blowing into it and was shutting down as there was too much west in the new swell and the tide was a bit low; and the beachie was too big with none of the nine surfers in the water making a wave.
If I drove out and in to another spot (another hour thank you very much) I am pretty sure I know a joint that would be lovely. But stuff that. Coffee and breakfast called.
The winds meant to get even lighter so hopefully this arvo.
Some pics from our DI trip yesterday.
It was great to escape the crowds.
Three of us just waiting for some swell.
Nice pics mate
.........
Local was going off today, overhead, clean, consistent & only 6 people out on a Saturday

Mate I can only ride a 666. Cant jump to my feet properly after a back injury. I've got 2 longboard style boards and a narrower pointy one for when it gets bigger. My shortest board is 10'6. It's got some size out of the south down here today. I'm working all weekend but will be out there from Monday on. Good to see you're all getting some waves
