Had club round sat morning pretty windy by surfable.

around 1130-1 some dude on a kite board came around the corner and proceeded to throw down like a madman.

I don't know kiteboarder moves but this dude did a mctwist off the lip flew and landed in the foam to floater than backflip and kept going, no windsurfers but I heard they had a comp down Margie's end

No comp at Mains just got a few international team riders in town tearing it up.
Me and 3 mates hit it late arvo and got some bombs much to the disappointment of the loser crew sitting out there in 25 knots of howling winds waiting for nothing. Give it up boys Hahaha.

Silly looking inland 'wave' is looking appealling as the flatness continues...

must




resist

Heaps of swell today

I made a late and desperate call to do the drive to LBB with the mal... arriving at 9:45am. Was about waist high MAX, but the wind was pushing 25kt from the SSE and destroying it on a very low tide. Waste of time; should have gone snorkelling at Mettams

Had a long chat with Huey yesterday.
Had a surf in the onshore and it was terrible but the first time I moved on a board in about a week.....

Current list of complaints

1) After an epic winter this summer has been lacklustre at best.
2) Whilst the point has been breaking knee height with 50 people out does not count.
3) The constant southerlies have limited offshore options resulting in several starts for one offshore surf in last month ( this includes Rottnest where to be honest it's southerly out there most days at current)
4) It is clear others feel this way as trigg point today is ankle to knee and their are 50 frothers out there.......
5) In the last three to five years the crowds on the waves just out of town have quadrupled and there is now at least five times the population from mindarie to Yanchep from what I ever remember.
6) It has been southerly for a couple months ( this is deliberately mentioned twice)
7) Whilst summer is a no swell affair in Perth it's a bit rich to have 20-30 knot southerlies every day and the surf stays below 1-1.5 metres.

During discussions with Huey he has stated that March looks promising and that February is nearly over.

I told him this is a little hard to swallow at current and he has requested a two week grace period, after this grace period there will be waves for around a week and a bit commencing on or around the 4th of March.

A little swell will arrive next week but it is likely this is a hoax

Huh,
Huey never answers me....... Perhaps because my 'chats' are essentially a rant.

He needs to be #hueyisa..... in these millennial and influencer times

bugger even extended his reach to Bali when I w?nt .....still to get my new Von TokYo Express in decent waves












These look a whole lot better than they were......the lady in red left a lasting impression as she nosedive deep on this wave????????

what i would give for a couple of hours of that about now mocha1. i wont be fussy, honest ill take about anything at the mo.

Good one Mocha great warung (Deki's) up on the hill too

The dog kebabs on the beach are better.

Mocha I reckon everyone in Perth would give their left nut for waves like that at the moment.
More pics fella.


Surfed local today was actually not bad

I, like you, am also suffering Huey curse....those were from early January, got a few fun ones at Nysa Dua but still only 2-3ft
have hardly got that board wet again since

You're right Razz. A few fun wedges in places. Not many frothers.

I stick to the mie goreng & grilled ayam...looks fun Mocha

There's waves again. Small but fun looking.
The trouble is, it's been a long week and I CBF. I'll undoubtably regret it tomorrow.

Back in the water for me this weekend, been out with a broken toe

Talked myself into going out. I'm glad that I'm easily led astrqy. Fun was had.

Thanks Huey
two really good fun surf on Saturday and Today, better than expected, little waves on the new $75 Rebel Sport Tahwali foamie.
today would actually have been worth riding my Perko Potato.
what a magnificent Perth day down on the coast......mission North could've been on....down south would be cooking

check the Gold Coast cams.....pumping

Yes, today was fun.

Yes it was

didnt go till 930 slept in there was actually a couple fun ones.

wasnt even planning to surf after as someone else put it ......Armageddon conditions...... but went out snared half a dozen and came in

I left it late. Too late as it turned out.

Today and yes local couple 80-100 metre+ rides...............

super crowded but super fun

Got up for the early local. Tiny, but the water was sensational, the crowd was elsewhere and I just had a paddle session and a couple of tiny ones. Must say I dominated that peak. No-one else got a wave....

while most im sure went south, i went few hours north to an empty reef, offshore, glassy, chest high, 60m rights yew.

it has been glorious at the local perf of late for a swim/body bash. water temperature amazing.

I was surprised how cold the water was at Rotto last week snorkelling. The surf was flat, although there were a handful of guys out near Salmon Bay getting 10m rides over shallow reef

Huey and I are friends again.

Were you snorkelling north side or south side?

Mostly West (Salmon Bay) and North (City of York, Little Parakeet Bay, and The Basin). South side was on shore even at 8:00am.
