Are you sure they moved to Sunday before you posted?

Flying up for Easter from Vic. Decision is to bring freestyle wave or twinser wave. Fngers crossed. Staying at currumbin.

FSW. Even if we get good wind, I don't think there is time for a good swell to build.
A FSW will get you more time on the water, I think.

Looks like teh southerly change has kicked in early here on the southern Goldie.
But do I want to risk getting caught in the EAster traffic ???
Would I rather shoot myself in the head ??

DON'T MENTION THE FORECAST. Huey will turn on you.

hmmmm, southerly.... Thom's speed bank or Wello for some bumps? decisions decisions.

What are the tide harmonics for Burrum? Are they like Mooloolaba?

Tide harmonics ??
If you mean tide times, a nice man at Burrum taught me that tide is related to longitude, so there is not much difference along the Qld coast.
Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuut, good luck finding any place to stay up that way at Easter.
Didn't someone mention a big fishing comp ??

If there is a bit of west in it or even south I will keep an eye on Currumbin.
Loves a bit of south in it. [}:)]

Shearwater is actually a typo at easter. It should read SHAREWATER.

over the far side u can sail it, but overall viccy is the better option with generally less holes in the wind when there's a touch of west

should be closer 4 u anyway?

i'm still hoping for south at shearwater

viccy point is great, but i already struggle enough staying upwind on my freestyle board. With viccy points onshore wind direction, ill proberbly hate it :S

Wello gives some nice accessible ramps in a southerly out on the edge of the shelf at mid to low tide.
I dunno if there will be wind for that though.
