fools gold

With all this swell around somewhere has got to be going off. A brief drive thru the eastern suburbs beaches proved fruitless – fools gold. This decent NE swell is completely missing Bondi and streaming into Bronte and Tama – but the high tide is killing it – fatness everywhere and many closing out. Didn’t […]

Moving chunks

There are a lot of places I’d rather be right now. Don’t get me wrong, sitting in a dark room above the Aquabumps Gallery pumping out the daily ritual of 5 photos and ramble is better than licking stamps or diggin’ a holes for a living. A mate of mine, Sam, just walks around his […]

Fortunately mid this week you’ll find good waves (3-4 foot) from […]

I didn’t really see anything worth rushing out the door for this morning in comparison to Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. The swell charts show a rapid […]

smooookin’

Woowee. Damn smoking morning. You wouldn’t have to look too hard in Sydney to find a decent wave at the moment. It seems so many breaks are crankin’ with this consistent SE swell and fortunate offshore wind (NW). Bondi looked a little straight due to the tad of east direction in the swell. The 7:30am […]
