Anyone thinking about hitting some waves on the Goldie tomorrow if this forecast comes good? Any location recommendations?
I tried Cudgen the other day and it was a great spot for a NEaster, all the locals were there so it has to be pretty good. I also think that anywhere around main beach would be good. I'll see if I can get out of a kiddies event and join you.
Double check the forecast Scot, S/SE. Main beach will be cross-on, which is ok if thats what you are looking for.
Currumbin was a lot of fun on Wednesday, I doubt the swell will be anywhere near as good, but if it come through there are a few nice banks.

Sorry mate, had to stay local. Same for today as well. The good thing is that when it is blowing this hard it's great sailing in the bay. Had some mad port tack jumps yesterday despite the southerly direction. When I went out at 11 the ramps were actually better in the way back in (port) than in the way out (starboard). Simon said by the time he got there the starboard ramps were good.
Don't worry you didn't miss much. main beach was a mess. Snapped my 370 mast I think on the 4th run, oops haha, just above the mast thou so luckily didn't trash the sail. Ended up going out again on the 5.3, but was a bit overpowered and not much fun, so went and did some freestyle in the broadwater.
Might go check Wello today, can use my 4.7 I don't think unless I do some kinda hybrid 370top+400bottom mast hrmmm
Ouch, at least you had another option so you could get out again. The bay was awesome on Sat but I got there a bit late on Sunday and it was a bit patchy.
The alley was fun on Saturday, not much in the way of waves as they were breaking a long way in. Heaps of wind out the back, I was well cooked on my 5.3 and reckon I could have gone smaller out there.
