After yesterday's fun and game at the 'Bin, and with the swell and wind forecast to increase, hopes were high today would also deliver the goods.
I arrived at the Alley to find Finno heading off to buy a new boom after bending his old like a pretzel.
Shane confirmed that he'd been out off the beach since since 9am, had then scored a few smokers in the Alley before his boom broke (fortunately while he was on the inside), and that it was indeed as good as it looked!
Oli then headed out, with Matt not far behind hm, so I took the opportunity to get some shots of the pair in action before I too was out there!
It certainly was a challenging day, with some mean rogue sets rolling through, lots of water washing through the lineup, and wind that kept "switching off" at the most inopportune moments...
But with only four of us out and an abundance of waves on tap it was well worth the effort.
Out there!

PS: Pat O. rolled up late, raced out off the back beach(!!!), and snared some bombs on the wide bank!
Hay AR

I herd today arvo (thur) was better again. Consistent wind smaller and, heaps cleaner wave faces. the bank down at Lacey's was working...
Wow what a great day we all had at the BIN, heaps of wind and some awesome waves, and some great photos thanks to Kirk.
Thanks mate! I had a great time in your country, got some good waves in Brunswick Head while i was there in 2004! Cheers
