DAILY POSTS

This morning didn't look like much, a reasonably sleepy ocean state, grey sky and passing showers. But in the spirit of Make-A-Wave's pledge to surf everyday in September, I jumped in the rip at North Steyne…

It's the last day of winter and it's an absolute cracker out there! Clear blue skies, sunshine and pristine conditions on the ocean. Hang around long enough and even the sun's got a little more warmth…

Happy Monday to you. It's the last Monday of the winter season and it's starting to feel a little like spring already. The cool sou'westerly wind of winter has been replaced by a warmer nor'easterly this morning. Not ideal…

Bit cool and grey out on the sand this morning. Still, there's fun little waves about and conditions are silky smooth. Those that roused themselves out of bed and into the steely grey ocean would be feeling pretty…

Hello. Hi. How you doing? It's been a little while... hope you've been keeping well.

Monday morning's can fall into two categories; the ones where you hit snooze, roll over and crawl feebly into the week, or those where you bounce out of bed rubbing your hand together ready to get stuck into the week…

It's the swell that keeps on giving. This morning we've got sunshine, a light sou'westerly offshore and a decent combo of swells rolling in from the south and east-south-east. It's been a great week of waves on The Beaches…

How about this run of waves! It's been good; really good! And reasonably user friendly with not too much water moving and plenty of lulls for the paddle outs. You could paddle out a novice and find yourself standing…

I woke with a with a solid dose of excitement and expectation today. All the numbers looked good on the forecast; hefty east swell, clean westerly winds and a healthy allocation in the schedule for surfing. Unfortunately the weather…

It's fair to say the Northern Beaches doesn't mind an East swell. This morning we've got 4ft of clean, groomed east swell and a light WSW breeze... ideal conditions. Take a drive up The Beaches, skip town all together…

It’s a mixed bag of clouds, sunshine, rain and fun waves this morning. Not sure if it’s much bigger than yesterday but there was a definite sense of increased energy in the swell. The early offshore wind’s have been…

I think I've gone soft! There's some fun waves about but about I'm struggling to get the motivation to pull on the wetsuit and paddle out. It's a whole different kind of a morning out there today to the last couple of days.

Nice to have some sunshine about to ease the transition back to winter after an extended time in the tropics. Yesterday was a balmy one and today's looking the goods too - just don't glance too far ahead in the five day forecast.

It’s been a couple of weeks since my last post and if you thought I’d fallen off the side of the planet you’d be close. The Maldives is a patch of scattered atolls rising out of the Indian Ocean somewhere between the subcontinent…

There's isolated patches of sunshine scattered about this morning. It's rare to find yourself in one but against a backdrop of heavy clouds and a change in weather, any sunshine on the skin is a little win. The forecast…

Nice day out there. Sun's out, wind's offshore and there's just enough swell to get you to your feet for a hump day glide.

Starting to feel a little bit like winter again today right? The wind's up from the sou'west stripping away that recent run of warmth we were basking in over the weekend. With the wind comes waves and there's a brief little south swell…

Yesterday was one glorious day for surfers on The Beaches, in fact most of the East Coast would have been firing. A solid dose of east swell and light winter offshores are a magic combination for many a beach break, point…
