N O O N

There's another absolutely sensational winter's day happening outside. It's warm in the sun and the brine ain't too cold either. I'm not sure I'd be hanging up the steamer just yet but plenty of people have been peeling…

L O W

The low tide and sunrise were on the same time zone this morning making for an easy knee-deep stroll out back and 2ft guillotines on shallow sand. It was pop up, go fast, pull in and commit to a rinse cycle of gritty Sydney sand…

South Push

There's a solid push of south swell swinging through Sydney today. Manly had razor sharp closeouts on the early morning low tide and Curly was struggling with the extra exposure; looked a little raw and dishevelled.

P O T E N T I A L

The clouds are back with a few passing showers but there is some potential in the waves. Queenscliff had the odd 3 footer, some even had a little shape but there was a distinct lack of power. Anyone on a short board

It's a cool one out there this morning, especially after two weeks in the tropics! Suiting up in the dark this morning I almost changed my mind on swimming and flipped the doona cover open.

Sooner / Later

Yesterdays missing swell has arrived, or at least it's finally angled around enough to make an impact on our beaches. It's not having much impact at Manly (shoulder high) however I suspect there'd be double the size…

Late?

All reports indicate that we're in for a solid dose of swell from the South, although you'd have hardly believe it looking at the ocean this morning. It's pretty flat everywhere I looked, even the south-facing beaches….

Over The Hill

Slim picking on the wave-front this morning. It's flat-to-half-a-foot and you'll need every inch of foam you have access to to get yourself upright and in trim this morning. The nor-wester has blown that little south swell to a

NNW

It's a funny one out there this morning. It feels like it should be colder but the wind has a distinct Northerly angle to it and it's brought the temp up a notch or two.

Full Blues

Glorious day unfolding out there. A full sky of blue, sunshine, offshore winds and that clean crisp cool winter air that feels good in the lungs. Take a deep swig of it!

Still?

Happy Monday Morning to you! Surfed out yet? It's been a good run of waves hasn't it! We've had some perfect moments and other days mixed with the ugly onshore but the East swell has hung right there with us…

Day Three

We're into day three of a solid dose of east swell and there's still a bounty of waves to be had. Yeah, the swell has definitely dropped a touch today but expect the odd sleeper set to roll on in. One set rattled the early…

Day Two

This morning had all the dramas of an episode of the original Bold & The Beautiful. The waves are on the pump again, boards were snapping and reports of a shark attack were filtering up the beach like Chinese

Wake Up!

Wake up! It's pumping in Manly today! In fact, the whole East Coast is probably cooking from Noosa to the South of Sydney thanks to a low sitting just south of New Caledonia….

Mild Out

Morning! It's a rather mild Friday happening outside there this morning. The temps are up on the last few weeks and the wind is almost breathless. I'm sitting here in a t-shirt barefooted with the doors open…

Dry Out

Hey look! We've got sunshine and if you've got a clear view of the sky from your current location I reckon you'd be as confident as I am in calling it a sunny day. We need to dry this town out and get back into the

Odd One Out

It's an odd one out there today. One minute it's pouring, the next the sun is shining down. Probably a great day to go hunting rainbows, there must have been some good ones while I was in the darkroom.
