Wow I've never seen it that big there

Can't imagine how big it would have been on the other side of that headland, from memory the other side normally picks up a bit more swell.

Sic looking Scotts Head!!

You should see Sydney this arvo - triple overhead + and clean as a whistle. Numerous spots handling it as well. We have had 2 x overhead waves for the last 3 days and cooking if you know where to look. Tomorrow morning will be on again.

Hey Dogman, Bower/Winki was 3 x overhead on dark, reef handling it easy, ran out of time First light though

Edit: Just checked the live bouy data and it is running 3-6 meters of east swell at 14 secs!!

It was huge out there in the afternoon - first time my FCS hat has become an underwater parachute with some of the ones that cleaned me up. Am more stuffed from paddling out against the wind. The rides I got, and saw you get, were sure worth it though. A near empty lineup as well made it all the more better Am that stuffed that I'm waiting for the kids to go to bed so I can go to sleep as well!

OD - Nice work on scoring the Scotts Head waves by yourself - you must still be stoked.

Yeah when the foam is over 2m tall I decided to abandon ship - too bad there was a whole set of waves like that to punish me Agree with the creatures leggie. Just got a new 9' one to go with the new Simon Anderson 9'6 - the board an leggie pulled me one way and the hat tried to take my head off the other way would do it all again to paddle into waves like that

Good workout for the legs OD - all that walking good thing you're riding an 8'8 SUP not a 10'+ for a walk like that
