This is what we arrived to on staurday

There's been no waves in Perth this week so I'm posting some old pics so we can at least dream. ( Sorry if you've seen them before ).

Great spot but not the easiest to get to. I guess when I had my 4WD I went there all the time. Better places to go when it looks like that tho!

for the quality of the wave vs time, effort to get there and crowds, imo its simply not worth it. its a b or c class wave at best,

Ok there has probably been better photo's of this wave posted but this was another one of those lago's that I remember so well from my time living there.
The question is who is in the photo? and it wasn't me (I took it) but I reckon one of you guys out there might be able to guess remember, yep photo was scanned and was taken somewhere between 95 -2000

Just looking at the photo makes me happy. A lot of memories of that place.

One of my fave waves

I know the inside section of that reef well

I was the token cripple from '04 through '07 so it's not me, think I know the guy you mean though. Mousey dreads? Pretty sure he used to work at the pub.

I reckon the right in question works best in a W-NW swell, runs down the reef better and doesn't shut down as much. Although I still prefer the the right in the background. Sick wave but fickle.

Have you ever seen the right in between the two in full flight? A rare beast that doesn't really wake up until about 8ft and then just doesn't stop.

One of my favourite haunts was further east of that pic, hard to get in to but such a good kneelo wave. And always empty.

I miss the rock. Lots

how come ive had epic solo sessions there lately?

sometimes u got to get up early for it

Good on you guys.
Most people I know who worked on the Rock got caught up in a vortex of drug taking and lost the passion to do anything before 11.00am !

Good tides this day

this place gets pretty good too .....moving up the line up, using the longish paddle to advantage, to the $%$##$% sometimes helps. until you get a coupla good ones then the sheep move in

Nice pics guys, keep 'em coming.
