The Hump This is at Southport.

You have to walk across the footbridge to get there. go right from the surf club.

River mouth could also be a good spot.

Seaford will be good as well. May not be much beach. Makes for intersting self landing.

Moana beach will also be good. Should be huge

There will be some crew around on Sunday at the mid.

We will see what happens on the day.

Come join in the fun. Should be epic if the forcast stays the same.

If its westerly the mid can be tricky getting out the back for new players in a big swell. With the amount of swell around, Seacliff could be on for a wave as long as it gets a bit of southerly in it.
PM me Friday and give you the best options for a Sunday wave session.

Cheers Croc :-)

I am going to be down seaford way Sunday, so I will check out Seaford bay. Not sure if I will end up hitting the water if it is over 30 knotts. 25 knotts is the highest wind I have been out in and I am thinking incrimental increases is the way to go. Hope to see a few guys out there to better judge the conditions. Big wind big swell could go either way.......

im going to check out moana in late morning or seaford hope to catch up with some crew some where along the mid.Strongest wind ive been in is 20 to 25 knots so will check out what conditions are like on day ,hanging to get out again was out at moana last thursday for quick kite before arvo shift need anouther fix .catch tomorrow

8.45 down here at the mid and its blowin its tits off - at least 30 knots. Dont believe the seabreeze wind charts - that must be inland Noarlunga I reckon. I live on the coast. Already there is a bit of west in it but the BOM charts say its going to go straight north before it swings early afternoon. Wind strength peaks at midday. Anyone planning a trip down? Experienced only today I would say!

POP.

Ill be hitting it at about 3, frothing for it

I'll look for you about 3pm Croc... Prob be around seaford...

what size kites are people using in this wind?

Small - 8m and smaller

A few lads did a downwinder from chicken shop to Henley.
Got half way and the wind came in at about 35knots. Never been so uneasy on a kite.
Hope everyone had a safe day

Thanks for the advice guys.

I decided the discretion was the better part of valour, and didn't hit the water.

I guess I will se what the next fron brings

I think you made a very wise choice, as the wind actually got to 50 knots at the airport! Some gusts can be up to 40% stronger. If you had a small kite earlier, it would have been great, especially at the Wall.

Fun session at moana once the sw kicked in with Tino, Backflip and p o p. Then a thumping squall came through and made for some interesting times. Got some sweeeet waves, well worth the effort :-). Frothing for the next big front, I love winter.
