Good surf :)
 
I'm back at work now :( after having had a great summer holiday at the beach. Thanks to cyclone Zoe (not thanks for wiping out a few pacific islands) for the good swell reaching our east coast. Yes indeed some filthy little sand sucking left hand barrels beaking a little over head height and super duper hollow. I didn't come out of any of the tubes but got inside on about six waves. It was breaking into about a foot of water over a sand bar so the end of each wave felt like getting beaten up by a bunch of logging truck drivers (or lesbians for that mater) but it was worth it. Other days were a nice 3' swell and out with the long board wearing the shorty wetsuit, and waves just about each day for the last 3 weeks. Ummm, somehow I'm sorta having trouble getting back into this work thing...

We have been getting it pretty good here in SoCal lately. Here is a link to what the guys up north have had to play with.

Holy schmoly Dan. That's a serious looking wave. I think I would enjoy waves like that from the security of the car park :)

Sorry Mark, talking surf was a bit insensitive of me. Mind you, you ex-pat types get paid so much in HK you could buy the whole damn beach when you get back.

Ha...not with damn prices of houses on the Gold Coast now! Feaking hell...wish I'd stayed in the market.

Cheers
