A perfect morning for a swim at sunrise – warm, windless, waveless and balmy 24 degrees in the brine. Yes, 24. That’s about as warm as Sydney gets in summer in the water. It’s like a bath.
The sunrise is much later as we exit summer – so a late wake-up will still see the sun peep over the horizon.
A local NE wind swell is breaking around knee-high, mainly neglecting Bondi as we face the opposite way to the swell origin.
Cennie Coast ripper Molly Picklum won Sunset CT Comp yesterday at 20, surfing against the best women in the world. Needless to say, a huge future for the new Australian guard is coming thru. In the men’s, Brazilian Filipe pinned Colapinto. Could this be a Pickles + Jack Robbo year of Aussie surfing dominance? The Australian storm? I hope so.
Enjoy the morning sunshine as a south change will hit mid-arvo, bringing rain.
