Nothing on...

Risking being accused again of lacklustre posting (see comments below "Oh #$%^"), I will make the bold call that you won't miss much today if you don't go. See accompanying photographic evidence.

Stuck indoors

Work kept me indoors till just now, but it looked like a great day out on the north coast. Ross ended up at number 2 and got a few fun shories on the fish. Tobes was the bravest: he went out in this crowd!

Oh @#%*..we missed this!

Offshore, OK size, clean...check the waves in the background.

Don't you just hate this...?!

Wednesday Warriors

"Went to the act cent. First 20 minutes I thought I was going to slit my wrists. Peaks rising in the center of the beach and crumbling on top but not breaking. Not even enough oomph to get a decent boogie board ride and I was on the Flamer. As the tide went out the small shorey by the far wall started to work and we carved up a few 6 – 12 inchers. Tobes is getting pretty nimble on that plank and was getting right across these tiddlers, so come a real wave he’ll be dangerous. All in all it was just good to get wet."

Not really sure what this dashi pic tells us: the weather's shocking up in the north here...maybe it will whip up a bit of wind swell.

Important Milestone

We just had our 1st anniversary!
Hard to believe the Pointies have been going so long. Thanks for the support, we're getting more than 25 hits every day, which is pretty good for a little blog with what we thought would be limited appeal. We always welcome your comments: we even got one in French yesterday...(see under "Offshore" post)

Sunday Report

"Went to activity beach and to jin shan...both looked like a lake. Parking lot still closed at jin shan so too much trouble. The re-model of that large stone building is looking good. New large wood deck over looking jin shan beach looks great. Also several new surf shops have opened up along the road. Walked into Johnny's shop and he was sleeping...sums up the surfing today. 20 guys on a 6 inch shore break." Tobes

Dashi dreaming...

The east coast is dead flat this morning. This is the only cam shot working. I know Tobes is going out to Jinshan this morning, so maybe he could give you a report...

All cameras still down. This is a still from the Dashi camera...I think it is current, the time stamp is wrong. Anyway, the most optimistic surfer probably should stay home today...yesterday was supposed to be better than today and...(see yesterday's report)

Rain and slush

Slushy one footers vied with pouring rain to be the most objectionable part of our Friday afternoon trip.
I think it was a draw in the end... Ross and Dave were not amused!
