Splendid south surf session

Postby drowningbitbybit » Sun Nov 13, 2005 3:56 pm

What a great days surfing I had yesterday :D

Down on the notoriously fickle south coast at Bracklesham, it was a great day. Waist high, glassy smooth, clean, and the occasional chest high set coming in 8)
About 30 people in the water, but its a big ol' beach break so no crowd problems, and all friendly smiles :D

And when the rogue set of the day came in, headhigh+, I was startled to discover I was in perfect position and had priority and rode the guts out of it :shock: :D

Best surf Ive ever had on the south coast, and one of the most fun days Ive had this year :D

I ache today though... too many clean waves, I didnt stop paddling/surfing for about four hours :wink:

Flattering, but I seriously doubt you were!!

Whereabouts on the S Coast was it?

Bracklesham, near Wittering, just east of the isle of wight. I've had lots of 'average' sessions there, but this was the first time Ive seen it this good :D

Its restored my faith in the south coast! :D :wink:
