All quiet on the northern front


After quite a lashing, the north coast has reverted to type today. Might be a couple of smooth little ones for the interested...
Regular commenter, Danny, was right about the south west: check this chocolate milkfest courtesy of bluebirdboarding, who, by the way, we welcome back after their hiatus.
Probably too much info, but chocolate milk reminds me of my current affliction...I'll be leaving the surfing to others for the time being!

World's Best


















The greatest rugby league player in the world, Newcastle's Andrew Johns, joined Newcastle's best surfers: Mark Richards, Luke Egan, Simon Law and Matt Hoy in an expression session at Merewether beach in 3 metre waves a couple of weeks back. While he said he was "out of his league", he pulled a few nice moves in the monster surf.

Anklebiters



The occasional ankle biter is pushing through. Long boards for sure...looks like another nice day weather wise.

Flat but fun

No photos: camera left in car.
Act Cent pretty flat, so Dave and Ross checked Jinshan 2. Tobes waited for the Taipei family Robinson and Clarky, who were on their way. Ross and Dave surfed nearly till dark: it was really small, but glassed off and the barreling shorebreak was kinda fun.

Pillbox return


Ross gets a last shot at a little stormy...

Just enough swell to force a smoothish 2 footer through the pillbox rocks this arvo.
Carl, Ross and Dave got a few and checked out the wedding party as well.


Pillbox calling...



we're off in about half an hour...if there's a wave like this at Jinshan point, we reckon we'll get something.

Stay tuned
