Bad waves? Nz worst... (pics)

Postby RJD » Mon Nov 03, 2008 12:34 am

Christchurch is often slagged off in NZ for having bad waves, then Aucklanders travel 1.5hrs to get a good one...??

So heres Magnet bat (again) south facing reef left hand break that goes off quite consistently, no great pics of the break itself as I was trying out the 70-200 with 2.0tc on.

That looks marvelous to me. Nice-ish waves in clean water. Looks like cool water temp. Can't think of anything better
