Looking promising. Anyone keen? Any other decent options in a SW? (Wello looks a bit shallow for me)

No I haven't tried it in a SW but I can't see why it wouldn't work (should be pretty much x shore). Prob just less waves than a SE. I think it would be nice. Hopefully the wind holds out

Don't bother to drive up to beachie; no waves anyway! Wello is less hassle; specially this time of year! Just have to walk it out a little longer

Bout the same distance (timewise) either way for me. Less chance of cutting my feet open at beachies too

Some short footage from the day. Wind W-WSW. Quite gusty

Nice footage; clear vision (anti fog tabs?). But where were you today; Wello was decent earlier!

Bit busy today unfortunately... Not to mention a raging hangover this morning . I don't think the camera had been wet at that stage of filming. That was prob the best 15min window of the day. Wind was pretty inconsistent
