Hey Dogman, its hit Sydney already, has ramped up since early this morning and the point is solid 5 foot (swell size) - looks like Autumn/Winter is finally here.

Supposed to be 3 x times OH by Sat

Think I might have to have a long 'lunch' today

Looks like South Swell syndrome here on the Goldy. Swell direction heading more South towards the weekend.

South of Byron will be pumping but the coast will probably not get too much at all unless it gets very big and wraps in.

I'd love waves but with so many toys these days I will still disappear for a few hours every day and come back worn out no matter what the conditions are.

Just got back and it was packed to the hills and super heavy and both me and macca got some insane floggings. There were some sick waves to be had right down the beach and we sat in where Parko and a few other boys where towing and picked off the ones they did not want. Pretty happy to come back with only one board and not 2.

How good is the forecast looking for swell

Yeah it can be crazy on a SUP but sick fun at the same time!! I have no prob telling people about straddie on a sup as i'm sure most people would look at it when its 5ft and say F U * K that. Its heavy and can break bones with ease as this is where i broke my leg and only today i gave a guy a lift back with a broken shoulder.

** iam looking at this forecast and cant wait for more swell to hit and with such a good wind forecast as well there will be a few spots pumping.....

Nice going Jacko, especially considering that limp you've still got. Unless somebody has broken a leg (or ankle, as I did at Ulu a few years back) it's hard to understand how frustrating it can be and how long it can take to get back in good form and full confidence in the water. Great to see you back in the juice so quickly.

As well as Straddie, there was somewhere else cranking today. But Piros is right - ssshh...

Straddie is a fat take off which draws you down the face then it just dry sands , it's a bogger paradise a real big effort to see guys hitting it on Sups , it a major penalty if you don't make laying on the bottom with water pushing you down onto the sand and then you have try to get back out.

As Jacko said it's a good day to come back with your board in one piece. I snapped my 9-10 sup there at Easter and snapped my 6-8 shorty just paddleing out , if you look along the beach it's grave yard of snapped board floxam.
