The swell charts are calling tiny to flat, but you’d still find a rideable bump down at winter swell magnet Bondi (chest high sets). It’s pretty chubby and weak, so you’ll need a fat board & a warm steamer. Winds are a chilly offshore – 5 knots. Sunny day but only 19 degrees. Don’t worry – you’re not missing out on too much. This weekend looks a little disappointing – flat as.
Busy Slater
Kelly Slater is a busy man. Last week I saw him at Changgu Bali, then shopping in Seminyak, then last Wednesday he was in a chopper to G-land where he surfed 8-10 foot Speedies with Dorian & Joel Fitz. Now yesterday he won 2 heats at Jbay – South Africa, in the Billabong world tour event. What a schedule. Watch it live
Go to Mentawais this year!
As you’ve probably seen on Aquabumps – Indo surfing season has well and truly kicked off. They’re having a great time up there near the equator. Mentawais, off Sumatra, has some of the best waves on the planet. If you want to go this year, Tengirri, the boat I go on, has only a few spots left for 2008. Aug30-Sep11 2008 (5 spots left) and 13-25 Sep 2008 (2 spots left). They’re discounting these trips to $3800 per person for a 12 day tour. Email Anthony or visit website
