So what happened,I heard a couple had to bail and the Dude showed up classic.
So where are all the bloody pictures.
I'll be meeting up with MR this week for a surf,coffee,beers and BBQ .
Well.....
I didn't get up there till late Friday night, drove around could find the boys in the dark so found somewhere to setup had a beer walked up the beach and thought I'd go for a walk around the park before bed, run into a few blokes drinking around a fire that just happened to be Prawnhead, Ted and yes the Dude. So beers were finished introductions made and bed after 1am
Next morning.. The surf wasn't great at PP, Ted was out on his sweet potato, so I headed out and joined him, got a few but nothing great was a bit fat and the swell was going past. As I headed in Michael and OB were paddling out, although I hadn't met them yet.
Another surf was on after breakfast and Ted took out OB 12 ftr and Prawnhead pulled out his sweet little Barry Bennett single fin. This surf was mainly Prawnhead, trying to jump onto the front of Teds board and Ted attempting head stands. Fun but still a bit small and fat.
This little break was a good opportunity to give the Dudes gifts to the boys, although he could have done it himself i the end, was good he was there. the boys were pretty stoked to be flipping through magazines from 20-30 years ago. Very lucky to have the chance, thanks Dude
After the reading time.
Michael and OB were heading down the beach for a surf and Sean was going back to his geeks or glamour night. ted then had to go home in a bit of a hurry. Hope all is well Ted.
I decided the new SB was going for a run and headed down the beach as OB and Michael came in.
Then after a rest for a while the point slowly started to come to life again. OB was on his 12ftr and Michael was on the 10'6 Munoz. To put it bluntly, they made pigs of themselves, waves from out the back to the beach, a few good drops by Michael and one very funny wipeout, probably the best surf of the weekend
Saturday night was pretty quiet a few drinks around the fire with Dude, OB and Michael then and an early night, think the arvo surf had worn everyone out.
Sunday was ordinary, so we packed up and OB and Michael headed north to Woopi and me south, checked a few places on the way home but nothing great.
Was a good weekend, waves weren't great but still lots of fun and good to put some names to faces.
I posted all my photos, my camera was flat.
