Look after it Doggie. I drove past Ours a few weeks back delivering a boat to Port Botany. Can't believe how close it breaks to the rocks. F@ck that.

Great fun here today.....4ft with a few bigger ones early doors then it has dropped off as the day has progressed.We have had no wind or a light offshore - sheet glass almost all day. Heaven. Just took the 5'10" out for a spin this arvo - first time its seen the water since Point Plomer. It was fun to have a surf and not have to be worried about any sneaker sets bashing me up. First surf in under head waves for what seems like weeks - and no complaints!

Some nice looking waves there Ted. Looks like all that swell hasn't hurt the banks too much. Looks like there may be some south swell coming.

interesting point you make there smh - the beaches have lost so much sand its scary - but we now have some beautiful deep channels so things are looking good. Weird to surf a beachie again today - its been ages since I had a play in one. So much duck diving !

Scotty I would be offended if you did not drop in for a surf on yr way past - it would be a pleasure to take you to some of the spots you used to hang it yrs ago. I am sure you will not be disappointed

Today it was absolutely smoking.........unreal day out. Although I took 4 on the head late in the day with the first two giving me the biggest beating I have had in a long time. It farrrken hurt. No photos to share sadly as I had a nightmare with them - lets call it user error and leave it at that. Not happy. Top w/e of waves though. 2 days of absolute perfection and plenty to go round. I love winter. The new board is loving the bigger stuff. Hope you all getting some.

As for the Ireland bet Scotty it went tits up....still a good w/e on the punt though

Actually here is a bad shot of my neighbour that gives you an idea of how bad i stuffed up with the camera

Epic waves today, best surf in a long time. Even better than Iggy, not as big but soooo long. Like having a 30ft long waist to head high 1/4 pipe on a conveyer belt. 5 blokes out and nice and consistent. Completely and utterly surfed out.

Hey Ted it looks like the shutter speed is to slow, did you try sports mode, or has it got a shutter priority
if using any zoom mode or zoom lens on a camera it will enhance camera shake, try faster shutter or tripod. just trying to help you

classic shot SP.

Cheers for the tip Weiry - it was essentially user error....I was trying to do three things at once when that set came through and the light was low and I just grabbed the camera and started clicking without checking the mode I was in (no time) was guttered as my neighbour got well and truly slotted and I have 8 frames of him all blurry!!!!!
