There aint much happening in the swell department so how about you go and check out an awesome selection of local surf photography on display at Finbox in Thirroul. Up the north end past Jacksons hardware. Chris is putting on a bit of a sale at the moment too.

One of those shops that makes you want to buy something because it all looks so good. There is a quality selection of surf boards, funky clothes, cool looking huge skateboards and all sorts of other stuff – not to mention the awesome original photo-art hanging on the wall ..

Its like a little gallery. All the photographs are for sale with works by myself, Ray Collins and Steeno amongst others. It all looks pretty good so get down there and have a look. Make sure you say g’day to Chris and you can stay in touch with whats going on via the Finbox Facebook page.

Winter Hues

The swell has been a bit disappointing through the middle of Winter but there is some promise for Wednesday…Thankfully the school holidays are over and the cold is here…

Some lines were starting to push up on Tuesday arvo with a bunch of superkeen groms onto it at the point… The sets were head high with some clean ones coming through..

The sky was alive with sunset colours, storm clouds and a rainbow over the end of the point.

All day offshores….

There have been some OK little waves around. Actually Friday gone was pretty sweet with fairly consistent 2-3 footers coming from the E/SE..

The sand has finally washed out of Macauley’s so you can no longer walk around the rocks to Thirroul on the low tide ( that was a lot of sand! ) and it seems to be breaking over the reef better than it has through all of summer and autumn..

Crowds are way down with the cold winds though it is school holidays next week so watch out…

We just need the wonk in the swell to sort itself out and some nice clean sizable lines from the SE for the SW wind to groom to perfection and it will be on!! Not too much to ask…eh?

Mmm… (more Mentawai’s madness)

Aussie charger on what was the wave of the trip as far as I saw and possibly the barrel of his life – a reported 8 seconds. If you know who this is then get in touch.

This guy was from the Canary Islands. Not sure how the surf is there, but he was loving Macaroni’s.

Al finding shade at Lance’s and Critter’s backhand bottom turn from the inside angle at Thunders…
