Cracking session today, Finnally hit the local slab. its a well good wave. only had it about 3ft but f00k its a heavy 3ft. Its jsut bowls out in a split second. goes well square and chucks more lip than than the local ASBO kid.
Was ace. Just me and a mate on it for 2hours until the swell dropped off.

Just though id post some pics of the south coast today, bit crap pics as was done on a phone also badly timed.... also last one for you guys to laugh at as i try to do a fancy exit on a bummed out wave! :oops: all in all it was crap today as the tide was going out, but saying that it would be crap even if the tide was coming in on the south coast.... but still fun though
:D

A smallish day at maroubra, but very little in the way of crowds (rubbish waves? Monday afternoon? Christmas eve?) so I could finally get my choice of waves :D

Image

But I was the drop-in king :oops: :oops: :oops:
Damn, these aussies can go down the line fast :shock:

But I got a couple of half decent rides, although short, and took some fairly hilarious drops :twisted:

Another day, another sunny beach...

Mona Vale, Northern beaches

Image

Started small and clean, then got a bit disorganised and bigger. I surfed like a kook in both conditions :roll: :yearght:

One moment of rail-grabbing, hand in the green face, made it all worthwhile though :wink:

3 days 3 good sessions.. Off visintg mates round Kernow and N.Devon had MExico from low up on Thursday. Clean but pretty fat for my likling... god the waves just arn't up to NI standerds! ;) I've been spoilt.

Next day hit up the 'M' great fun with all the kernow b00gers, lots of faces I knew was a good time and gettign cracking kegs in the 3-4ft shorie/wedges

Today was over at the muff in N.devon. just me Biggers, Sean and Jarad out for the majority on the bopulder point. wasn't amasing but a fun session. joined by a couple others a bit later some good 5ft'ers coming through. very enjoyable.

Will be off out agian tomorrow before I head east for NY's

Bit of a stressed day at work, so quit early and hit the beach, not expecting much. I got in at south end maroubra and got what I expected - messy and confused waves, and a good pummelling making it past the sandbar.

Gave up, went to the north end which really shouldnt have been working... and got glassy perfection :D

A nice way to end the day 8)

Highcliffe, south coast UK.

Slight onshore, waist high on sets.

Had a good surf myself. Getting the hang of the drop.
