It's been a weird and wonderful 24 hours of weather. Rain, thunderstorms, plenty of lightning, a late wind change (waves got really yesterday afternoon) and thick heavy fog at first light this morning. It's all but cleared now… x

We had 10 minutes glimpsing the sun this morning and chances are that'll be it for the day. Had to see the sun finding any gaps with the heavy rain clouds are gathering.  The local  forecast is a little grim with a chance of up to…

This morning had some beautiful moments of shifting light as the sun ducked and weaved through a column of clouds rapidly sailing across the horizon. I quite like these kind of morning where waiting in the

If you're in the sub-50kg category and your shortboard dim's begin with a 4, you've got access to a whole other world of waves that are completely unsurfable to the rest of us. This morning, the sub-50 crew were frothy…

Yesterday got good didn't it?!  After a very average and onshore morning, the wind eventually turned, the waves cleaned up and the afternoon rolled on with decent waves end to end. I'm sure text messages went flying…

It's a real mixed bag going on out there today. Long period south swell and short period swell from a couple of days of localised nor'easters is wedging together under very still, humid conditions.

I was a touch late to the party with the camera today. Made the call to join the throng of surfers for the early and left shooting til that magical time after 8am when everyone used to disappear to jobs in the city or schools…

It would pay to have some insights into crowd behaviour/psychology to be a surfer these days. This morning I was blown away by how many people were in the line up already by 6am; a morning of overcast conditions, light…

These are my favourite kind of Spring morning. When there's that residual warmth in the air and water, the air is clear with a light offshore and there's just enough cloud scattered about to soften the light and add a little

Morning and a very happy Friday to you. It's another morning of high frequency, short period swell out on the Tasman. It's was trying to be peaky but the reality was most waves hit the banks as a closeout and floaters

Weird little wind swell out on the water today. The waves were so tightly packed together I found myself either ducking under one or a lump of water ahead of me blocking the view of the wave behind. It was only 1-2ft…

Perfect spring morning out on the sand, sun's out and the wind is calm. It's that time of the year when temperature and timing make morning activities oh-so easy and inviting. It's light enough to leave the house…

Morning! Nice to be back home and even better to time it with the sunshine. We've been up the coast camping offgrid, offline and mostly with the tools tucked away out of sight. It's a nice quiet time to be out of town…

Feels like we've found ourselves a nice Spring rhythm in Sydney. Warm days, sunshine, long afternoons and light winds make Spring a very comfortable time of the year. 

After a weekend waiting for the wind to go offshore, it's nice to have woken up to clean and tide conditions. While the offshore never arrived yesterday, this morning it was as clean and silky smooth as it gets. The swell's drop by half…

Sensational spring morning out on the ocean. Whales, sunshine and east swell were in abundance. The swell has backed off since yesterday afternoon's kick however there's still plenty of energy to tap into. 

Feels like Thursdays must be the lucky day at the moment. We've got waves this morning and if you cast your memory back a couple of weeks, the last little pulse of east swell light up The Beaches on a Thursday also.

Typical Monday vibe out on the sand this morning. A quiet, subdued call back to the productivity of the working week under a sky of washed out colours and ocean that was moving but only just. It feel like even nature…
