nice little rip bowl

[Donweather]

Lift ya game DonShould have asked me Georgey, I could have told ya without a doubt that it was gonna be crap. Hope ya got a nice latte but!!

[GC-lidder]

im desperate don
where should i go?
i can go as far south as kingscliff
and tomorrow is the only day for weeks before i canget out again.

any help would be greatly appreciated

[Donweather]

Definitely head as far over the border as you can GC. A small pulse of SSE windswell is around the place tomorrow morning, and with winds expected to be WSW at dawn, becoming SW/S as the day goes on, get in early and pick your most super exposed south facing beach you can find over the border. Don't expect much more than 2ft tops at these beaches mind you. Likely to be some small and very very inconsistent E groundswell in the 1-2ft size mixed in with it.

Hope ya find something.

[george]

I was at Currumbin with the Anaconda thing comp.

Still nothing happening there....

[Donweather]

Georgey, you may be good at picking surfers in Fantasy surfer, but why did you go to Currumbin when there's only a small S swell running?

Check out the swell on the horizon mind you!!!

[george]

I was covering the Anaconda thing, Don. So I HAD to be there :(

nice lil scenic shot georgie...message me where ur gonna head tomorrow if u can....i know a few spots that could be fun still

[what_a_bogan]

lol dont know u boys where surfin but i scored solid 3+ waves :D

[Bill]

3ft+ boags? I got a few 1-2fters, ok and fun waaay down the beach at stradberg this morn. Where were ya mate?

[SBL]

spit was 2-3ft at lunch time eat a fatty

[Donweather]

Looked to be a bit onshore by lunch time too, SBL, with a 10knt E blowin?

[SBL]

yeah but im not complaining was still heaps of fun

[Donweather]

If I were you guys, I'd be hitting up your favourite S swell magnet tomorrow morning, as I reckon there might be a few fun ones around the place. Nothing huge, but the very inconsistent 3ft set might occasionally appear by the looks of the wave buoy this arvo.

Winds have already gone WSW/SW at the bottom end of the Goldy and should follow suit up the top end shortly I'd say as the temp drops below the 12-13 deg mark.

Cause after tomorrow, she's all down hill rather rapidly with nothing noteworthy on the horizon for a while yet.

If Gaz hadn't given me his bloody flu, then I'd be at a certain swell magnet at the bottom end of the coast tomorrow morning for sure.

[george]

OI!!!

Wot about Fridee?????

dont tell me its gotta be nudes on a rock again.. :(

[Donweather]

NOARA I'm afraid Georgey!!!

You'd be lucky to even find a ripple on the surface on Fridee Georgey.

How about ya come to Brisvegas instead and we find the perfect Latte!!!

[sunnycoastbooger]

a certain spot that i will be at tomorrow was apparently VERY fun today. so amped for tomorrow, especially for my 2.30am wake up haha

[Donweather]

Best you were in bed then my friend!!!!

Night night. Sweet dreams and I look forward to some nice pics.

BTW - Get in early as the swell is waning quickly throughout the day.

[xjaymiejonesx]

yea a spot i thought would be fun today was fun! good times 230am where r u driving form to go for a surf...hectic

[george]

hey Jaymie.. Feel like doin NOARA???

Good exposure fer ya!!!!

hahahahahahahahahahahah

[SBL]

how dum r u jaymie he lives in sunny coast and hes going to a south swelll magnet

[xjaymiejonesx]

SBL: fk how far inland do you have to live to get someone exposed? i thought my house was bad

[Donweather]

So did anyone get some fun waves this morning?

Conditions looked super clean and it looked as though there was the occasional nice 3ft set (at the more exposed locations), although as per usual the banks north of Burlz looked crap.

[lollipops and laughalots]

After a 3:30 wake up surfed North Wall Ballina for 3hrs. Super clean 4ft with odd 5ft rogue. Pretty nice shape but a little fat even on the lower tide.

[sunnycoastbooger]

i had sick surf. pitty about hick locals putting a camera ban out

[Donweather]

pitty about hick locals putting a camera ban outYeah I can understand that, cause it's not like it's been photgraphed much over the last few months!!!! Locals.........

[Bill]

They're getting a bit defensive down that way since drive times from Qld have dropped with better roads + surf cams in places.

[exbunobooga]

up at 3.30am? what time does it get light?

sunrise isnt until 7.00am here

[Bill]

Just before 6am there's been enough to get out. You're way more south in Bunno.

[SBL]

hahaha oi exbunobooga i am the little punk riting u off on fluidzone aahahahaha

[Donweather]

They're getting a bit defensive down that way since drive times from Qld have dropped with better roads + surf cams in places.I'm pretty sure where SCB went there aint no surf cams in place??

[Donweather]

up at 3.30am? what time does it get light?

sunrise isnt until 7.00am hereI was in the water at Dbah last week at 5:45am. Can't do much earlier than that at the moment, but it is getting better each day (obviously).

[sunnycoastbooger]

sure aint. just hick yocals

[Donweather]

sure aint. just hick yocalsI see ya still snapped off a few pics (http://www.swellnet.com.au/sessions.php?session=Rebounding_on_the_North_Coast _130807.php) from way back up in the dunes SCB!!

[sunnycoastbooger]

haha i got heaps more earlier from the rock wall, but then got barred by a group of local hicks, so i had to go sniper style from the dunes

[Gary B]

When was that SCB?

[sunnycoastbooger]

last tuesday

[Gary B]

last tuesday
NIce.

[paulo]

Hate to break it to ya SCB but we scored even better that morning, 3-4 foot lefthand wedges at a certain backbeach south of the river.. with a crowd of 3 people. Those pics are deceiving cos there was a shit load of cunts on it when we where there and it was pretty weak. On the way back nth wall had easy another foot on illuka too.

[sunnycoastbooger]

so u seen iluka? cause it was alot bigger in the morning. i have alot of better shots, which im not willing to put up on the net

[Donweather]

Have you seen the shots of Bede Durbidge at Iluka in this months ASL? Absolute perfection (and I don't understand how the hick locals can be upset with you SCB, given that ASL spatter it over their glossy mag regularly and certainly name it most times!!!).

[paulo]

yeah i knew it woulda been bigger in the morning, cos it dropped pretty quick, but fuck it was crowded for a wednesday and I still think nth wall woulda been even better early. but yeah, ive been haseled a few times by the hicks down there.. most of em dont like the boogas when ive spoken to em, aparently cos some booger said on a dvd that he uses illuka as his 'training ground' for pipe. its almost worth just parking in the big carpark and walking down the track, cos if they see ya at your car with QLD plates they arent afraid to have a go at ya

[sunnycoastbooger]

they were being ok with the qld cars. They were just going nuts at anyone with a camera. Apparently someone had a knife pulled on them the week before. Yeh the big carpark is good, only problem is u cant see ur car and they could trash it pretty easily

[Donweather]

Isn't that what girlfriends and wifes are for? To stay in the car while you go for a surf and ensure the car doesn't get trashed!!!!

[paulo]

nah don, they are to make sure you cant get away early, you have to stop every 20mins for them to piss/drink/eat, to ensure you arrive 15 mins after the wind is up and then winge about the cold..

[Bill]

ha your missus still comes?

Mine hasn't been for a couple of years, she been burnt too many times.

[Gary B]

The best thing in the world is the face of a woman during orgasm...
Guess you aint seen that in a while ay Bill..:D :D

[george]

geeze Gaz.. you on teh internets down there an awful lot.....

[Gary B]

Back home George
NOt worth staying around as it was blowing a SE and not looking like changing and I had to get back to work.
Best thing though, Virgin have given me a free flight to sydney (one way) to use in the next year...so I am gunna head down when there is a swell and decent winds happ'nen for a daytrip with one of my mates who regularly does an Ulla run when its on.
Nearly as exciting as the runs to the Ballina Pie shop!!

[Donweather]

Still a pretty impressive day trip from Sydney to Ulla Gaz!!!

[george]

hmmm Day trip hey... Keep me in the loop.....

I should have some money to spend at a pie shop by then......

[Gary B]

Yeah, takes about 3.5hrs in good traffic.

Sure Georgey, no worries.
The best Pie shop in the world is in a small town just north or Mollymook called Milton. The Rainbow Pie Shop.
Peeps drive from Sydney and Canberra just for a pie and a coffee..
Oh yeah, they also have damn fine coffee too.

[Donweather]

Lattes!!!

[darth_waver]

i actually had a caramellate today i was frothing pretty hard
