i checked it round 12 and sure...it is a solid swell with good sets BUT theres very little in the way of banks and the winds still smashing it from the side. all in all its average and to make things worse the tides low this arvo and im sure theres icebergs just beyond the breakers.

anyone else get some action today?

whats the water temp down there brooko? i know, that you know the water temp up here only gets down to 16'c and at the moment its 17'c and everyones winging.
so to keep your breaks safe in vicco all you have to do is tell us how cold it is!

11 degrees?

you can have the deep south.....i'll go to broome for a couple of cyclones.
can't beat a good wettie, i bought one of those westsuits 3x2 lotus, warmest wettie ive ever owned but ive killed it in under a year. mostly rotted even though its washed out, it just never drys.

dont get me wrong,i love seeing local photos ,un named of course.more often than not you will pick where it is. like you ,i have surfed over 20 yrs,but it is rare these days to have a good session with just your mates, all i say is savour it,keep it to mates,happy surfin !
