You know the surf is bad when you see guys walking away from the beach with dry hair. (especially learners on those Chinese $200 mini mals). We’ve got a flimsy NE swell that is just breaking at Maroubra, but not really anywhere else. Bondi was pretty much flat apart from the solo shorey I capture in one of today’s photos. Yawn. Pass the crumpets old boy.
Checking the surf forecast for the next 7 days is like checking your share portfolio – DIRE. There is no swell relief on the way – small conditions for the next week so best get onto those jobs you’ve been procrastinating about.
Bustin down the door
Last night I saw ‘Bustin Down the Door’ at the open air cinema with the man grommets. Gotta say it’s a great movie documenting the early origins of the ASP World Surfing Tour. The film focuses on the characters who made it all happen in Hawaii – Rabbit, MR, Thomson brothers, Eddie Rothman, Ian Cairns, PT to name a few. Well worth seeing…amazing times on the rock between 1974-1976 – more info

Whats with all the grain in todays pics Uge? Obviously intentional…what with the capabilities of your Canon gear?
The grain is intentional to make it look like good ole’ film.
Love film. its just a photoshop filter I’ve been messing with.
Since Digi cameras came out – everyone shoots crystal clear – yawn – boring.
