Had a surf at Clifton on a warm summers day several years ago.... froze my n*ts off. Don't think I would be too keen for an early with those conditions.....

Nice find Mic, Marti is an amazing surfer and one of the original guys to charge Shippies, dominates when the points are on and is a super nice guy...

Haha. Turtle neck is just as good.
It's one styling dog..

Poor thing would be freezing without it.

And good luck, you deserve to be rewarded for going out when it's that cold.

Thats a great shot of the little grom in the snow. That is gold.
Here's me bitchin about my hands being cold this morning when I went for an early surf. What a wuss!!
The water temperature here is 18 degrees.I guess the water will be warmer than the air down there, but it will still be chilly.
My hats off to you.

You can bitch and moan about today....

NOBBYS has shivered into its coldest morning in seven years.

. While the temperature was 5.6 degrees on Wednesday, Weatherzone meteorologist Anthony Duke said low humidity had helped drive the apparent temperature to a frigid -2 degrees between 6am and 8am.

Well the points didn't fire down here but managed a few fun ones at Carlton river, I think Tom did a lot better at Swansea Point, wish I'd the time to have headed up...

Below pics, Toms pic of Swansea and my last snow pic, 230sec exposure of Mt Wellington from Mortimer Bay ...
