Surfing Waves

anyone reckon there`s going to be any waves on sunday up at saunton? fancy going up but not sure on the forecast - know its been flat for ages but you never know!

magic seaweed has gone a bit doo-lally - its says its going to be flat on wednesday then its given a full star for the same day!

cheers, mike

Late in the day on sunday there's a possibility of a small swell beginning to push through, but I dont think it'll work

It wont be flat, but it'll be short period windslop mostly unless that swell is more organised in the south west than I think it will be.

Not worth travelling for. Monday and tuesday are going to be a little better, but still pretty poor.

cheers, i think i`ll stay local then and get a bit of kiting practice in as there`s meant to be a bit of wind. just fancied camping in my new van!!

On the other hand, its likely to be the last weekend before it gets all wet/chilly/autumnal (weathers going right downhill next week) so I think I'd be tempted to get in my van anyway. Oh, i am!

I'm in cornwall this weekend to see the in-laws, so Ive got my fingers crossed for some kinda wave somewhere, just to get wet and remember where my paddling muscles are

If you fancy some company mate, I might be heading down with the GF this weekend. If there was at least a ripple I was going to start teaching her before any decent swell turns up and I selfishly bugger off and do my thang!!

PM/text me if you fancy meeting up.

Its a family thing for the mrs, so not a lot of time for surfing but hopefully will get the chance to pop into the water. I think we're staying near widemouth.

And not weymouth like she originally told me

But I'll let you know where I am and when Im likely to be in the water

You dont have any paddling muscles. You dont paddle.

Getting a bit confussed now ?

Does it look likely that there will be anything there either sat , sun, or even monday ?

i HAVE SERIOUSLY GOT WITHDRAWL AND NEAR DEPRESSION i need to ride a 1 foot on my longboard with paddles if need be .

Maybe we should all hold hands in a circle and prey for waves !

Um.... not a lot.... A small foot-ish for saturday, maybe
A couple of messy windy feet for sunday and monday, but short period and onshore winds

So, not flat, but not really surfable or anything to get excited about.

give us a shout this weekend then mate me and aaron gonna go for a surf on monday so could head up to widemouth

Saturday was pretty good all things considered , Sunday was messy but there was something outback at Puts if were desperate to get your ears wet after the Flat spell . Monday not looking good at all because of the wind so if you missed Sat bad luck .

Hell went for it on Monday too , was extreamly windy and messy by the shore , but out back was great there was hardly anybody that got out there, but was hard work but worth it any.way
