A huge Swell in the South West so anyone with any plans should head West, best breaks anywhere its al going to be firing, mid week looks particulary good so if you can drop everything and head West. South Coast looks good, as do any North Facing breaks. Get on it.

The East Coast up here is going to be pumping if you know where to go :wink:

I'll be on the East Coast Sunday morning and Monday, just trying to decide if I should go 'Lincs' check out Skeg, or do the usual 'Cayton' trip? Guess it'll be good at South Bay. Skeg's looking looking good bang off shore with 9 - 10ft swell. May check it out spoilt for choice!

I'm holding out for Tuesday, think it will still be a bit small Sunday to make it a worthwile trip, whereas Tuesday is looking way overhead just got to find some shelter :wink:

Oooh, I got some 1ft onshore mush! And still managed to snap off my single fin! :bang:

by **derbyshire surfer** » Sat Mar 17, 2007 4:16 pm

Personally N.S, 2 - 3ft is fine for me! Way overhead is good to watch and take pictures but I guess I'm just plain chicken s*#t! 4ft is about the largest I'm comfortable with.

Tomorrow should be fine, spoke to someone up there today and they said it was a couple of foot, so should pick up a bit more and the winds ok too. Enjoy

its snowing in sheffield at the moment, but thats huge.

I suspect serious cold fun for you

by **derbyshire surfer** » Sun Mar 18, 2007 11:38 am

N.S, have you been to Scabs today??? DON'T BOTHER!

I don't know, I guess the wind strength has blown the swell away lol! Not quite a foot this morning. Driven over 300 miles for nowt! Joys of surfing eh? :twisted:

by **Broosta** » Sun Mar 18, 2007 12:10 pm

I wouldn't expect anything surfable until after the wind switches round to more northerly direction on monday morning, and then you'll deffo need to head for shelter cos its just gonna be a big onshore mess otherwise.

I cant quite work this out... Is this a wind up along the lines of 'we've got swell on the east coast, ha ha ha' or just a terrible piece of forecasting?

In the south west, its going to be a lumpy short period blown out mess for a few days, then go flat. South coast is going to be a bit of wind chop, then go flat quite quickly as the winds turn northerly.

And, not that I know the east coast, but it looks like its going to be big and blown out. Then small and blown out.

Oh, and cold too.

Am I missing something? Cant see the fun element...

Was about the say the same thing DBB... Even on the E Coast its not goign to be that great eather...
