DAILY POSTS

It's kind of pumping out there today, at least pumping enough for me to drop the camera gear and get amongst it. We've got neat lines of SE swell stacking up with a light offshore from the nor'west. It's a fine…

It's a mixed bag of all sorts out there today. A bit of sunshine, couple of showers, little serving of leftover swell, hint of an onshore and a timely swing to offshore. It's a fluid situation but all good if you manage to nail the…

Another sensational winter morning out on the sand with plenty of sunshine and south swell. It's cool, but definitely warmer than the shiver this time a week ago. We're heading for a top of 20 degrees today which…

Can you believe this run of swell? What is this, day eight of good size groundswell on our beaches? Yep! Not too bad a start to the winter huh!

It's day three of south swell and it's still rolling in with solid sets and long accommodating lulls. There's been a handful of moments when the banks at home seem to be handling the direction and size. It's a fluky…

We're in for a solid run of south swell. Multiple bumps of south swell are lining up deep in the Tasman to provide us with plentiful swell over the coming days. There should be waves all the way into next weekend…

Not a whole lot doing out there this morning. Strong westerlies have blown any hint of a south swell way out to sea and there's hardly a ripple hitting our shores. The good news is the wind's going to ease over the coming…

Hope you were up with the early birds this morning. The dawn sky put on quite the show with a double burst of vivid colour and warming hues lighting up the third morning of winter. It was the kind of colour and cloud formation…

The ocean's come back to life this morning with a fresh injection of energy from the south. Someone once told me three days after snow on the mountains Sydney gets swell and it proved spot on today. The little rip bowl…

Oh boy, it was frosty out on the beach front this morning! Winter's arrived right on cue with cold temps and a brisk sou'wester to chill the core. The nice thing about the south end of Manly on these cold winter days…

I woke up this morning expecting cold temps and crazy winds but i'd say it's pretty mild. Maybe it's going to go gonzo later, but for now the sun's warm and outside looks rather inviting. You might even shed the puffer…

Brrrr, wasn't that a chilly start to the day! Best place to escape that brisk offshore was underwater where the temps are still nudging just above 20. I dove in for a swim on first light and it felt like winding the clock back…

That big, warm, glowing, yellow ball is back in the sky and it was welcomed with open arms this morning. You can feel winter knocking and so any hint of warmth from our closest star is appreciated, not to mention…

Today's post is a mixed bag, a bit like the morning itself. I walked out the door thinking the clouds were gather above for an almighty thunderstorm. But the clouds parted, the sun snuck out and the rainbows were hoisted…

It's finals day at the Sydney Surf Pro and the waves have stepped up a notch. It's actually cooking! Even Kaipo Guerrero could say the waves were pumping whilst keeping a straight face. It's 3-4ft with the odd bigger one…

I've just made it back to town for the narrow end of the draw at the Sydney Surf Pro. It was actually kinda firing down on the contest back at North Steyne this morning; 2-3ft, clean, peaky, super fun, contestable waves

TThe sun's out and it's a sensational day for day one of the waiting period of the Sydney Surf Pro. The first stop of the World Longboard Tour got underway in small, fun little log waves out front of the North Steyne Surf Club.

The Pro show is back in town and the action got underway this morning with the local wildcard trials. The best of the local boardriders clubs going head-to-head for a single spot in the men's and women's main event…
