We’ve had a good run down at Bondi with regards to waves. Today there are waves, surfable, 3 foot sets, but mainly closing out straight. Perfect autumn conditions prevail – SW offshores, frosty 19 degree max. This south swell is to fade a bit in the afternoon. High tide 11:30am, low tide 4:45pm. To fight […]

Swell has come up and it’s breaking out the back of Bondi around 5 foot. Shame about the shape – shutting down most of the time. The odd set hooks up with plenty of meaty face to dance all over. Light autumn frosty SW winds early, blowing S this afternoon. Another damn cold day & […]

Hi Chinas. Those that braved the big chill would have found 3 foot uncrowded Bond*age – lining up a little wonky with the odd right in the middle. Warm in – frosty out. Sydney’s south facing beaches will be fun little playgrounds for most of the day as the winds are offshore SW before tending […]

Bit like a scrum on the peak this morning, scrapping over head high, suck-ulent little tubos on offer in the southern end. South swell is still here blessed with an early morning offshore. It’s a wonky swell – more than surfable. Quite a few beaches to choose from, Bondi, Curly, Narra, Avalon…arvo southerly winds will […]

250 frames in 2 hours – busy morning. Lots to shoot between a classic autumn fireball sunrise and 4 foot suction at Bond*age. Our south facing beaches have great waves with the early morning offshore and consistent south swell. Everyone’s onto it and there will be a few late crew to work today. If you […]

Some swell lurking around these parts today. South facing beaches will attract 3-4 footers with chill-bill SW offshores. How cold was last night – ridiculous. Large morning rock steady crew scrappin’ for waves on the southern chunk of sand. Wave faces were bumpy with heaps of bounce…but there were snug pockets worthy of an attempted […]

After a night of thunderstorms & a dramatic decrease in land temperature (max 18 brr brr) we’ve got some waves down at Bondi this morning. It’s not super clean – but well worth a hack. Sets up around head high, average around chest high, the leftie was holding up nicely approaching the 10:54am low tide. […]

With low expectations this morning I was quite surprised to see Bond*age deliver surfable waist high lefties in the corner. Small pack enjoying the golden morning light and silky surfaces. With a 7:20am low tide, our beloved bank sucked out the fatness creating a couple of beltable mini pockets – but hey, don’t get too […]

Returned from paradise to find Bondi waist high, clean and breaking in the corner off the same bank that’s been hanging around for a while now. Winds are offshore early and NE later. It’s surfable – you’d wanna be pretty keen. Looks small for the next 4 days – so best do something else. Tahiti […]

Tahiti has had many crew dropping by. In 1769 Captain Cook followed the stars to Tahiti…Sir William Bligh in 1788 nearly lost his crew to the beautiful local women. In 1867 Paul Gauguin painted his fascination for the local Polynesian women, and in 2006 Aquabumps drifts in the channel on one of the world’s most […]

Today’s cut from the same tree as yesterday. Almost carbon copy. Small knee to waist high waves with super-chilly offshores bringing a shock to the system…oh yeah and sunshine-a-plenty. The left and right peak is still kinda dribbling with this miniscule south swell… the longboarders and fish goers are out for their morning hack – […]

The chunky swells of April are now a distant memory as we continue to endure this small spell in May. Every 15 minutes or so a wave would break at Bondi in the south, best suited to a lengthy mal or fat fish – but it ain’t that great. You’d have to be really keen […]

Dribbly bits still manage to break on the low tide with our superior bond*age bank. Clean knee-waist high lefts and rights are on offer amongst a huge morning crowd. Our favourite bank is on the move, so it’s in its last days as born ‘n’ bred Robin Austin says "she’s on the way out – […]

Gee good weather today – doesn’t get much better (max 24). Sometimes Sydney really turns it up. Swell is tiny down at Bondi with waves only breaking around your knee caps – orkay if you wait long enough a larger one will come through. A large frothn’ pack was hungry for scraps as they clung […]

What can I say; the weather is pretty damn good and so is the water temp. A small suck-ulent little left in the corner at Bondi is providing fun waves around waist to shoulder high, but it’s packed – real packed. Swell is now coming from ESE and will be bigger at other beaches that […]

Yeah I know, late again, but that’s part of the whole Aquabumps experience aaiii. Last night whipped up some local wind swell suitable for our new found banks. Waves were only around chest/shoulder high but consistent and beltable (now that’s for shiiiiza). Even the odd shackola to dig your way through on the left. It’s […]

April’s fields of clover have come to and end. What a month…we’ve all been entertained by 4 chunky swells in 4 weeks. After a weekend of pumping Bondi we’ve got smaller waves around waist to shoulder high on two solid leftie banks (one in the middle and one in the south). Heaps of fun little […]
