I was in today (the 3rd) and it was yukky!

There some big waves when I got in at 11 but it died down later. I don't know how you measure wave height but they were probably above head height while standing on yer board riding one. I actually caught one of the great biggun's 'n all, as I was standing up I thought 'this is going to be an amazing ride' but after a small turn the wave kind of dropped me...gutted.

The wind was dreadful though, I was in for about 3hrs and my eyes are bright red from all the bloody spray blowing in 'em.

Anyway, I'll stop whinging, did you have a good surf??

Decided not to go. Thought about it, went to the surf shop for a while, then when I got out the shop, I could feel how strong the gales actually were, and for a person with not much strength, and waves that big is not a good match, I dont think i would have came out alive. :lol:

Was watching from the ramp though. Some of you guys were getting some sweet waves. Good going. :wink:

hehe.. No i havnt got any photos yet... Dodgy camera... ill keep trying though. s But i got some pics from magic seaweed instaed..

These pics arent the best..it was getting flatter by the end of the day, gale winds meant that they were pretty big earlier on.

Niether of those pics are from last weekend. The only one on MSW that was posted on the Wkend looks about knee-waist high max.

by **surfdaisy06** » Wed Dec 06, 2006 3:03 pm

I just guessed that they were from the weekend cos the date on them said the 3rd of December... but judging by your knowledge I must be wrong. :roll:

At the bottom it says viewed Xamount of times since the date it was posted. Not sure why the date at the top is different.
