Surfable
It’s surfable but definitely not pumping. It could get better as this brand new NE swell builds during the day. The wind, however, is going to howl 25-30 knots at 5pm today. Hide the Sulo bins, strap on the bbq cover – she’s gonna blow! Finally, after the recent swell drought, I have some nourishing […]
H O T S P O T
Today is shaping up to be the hottest day ever. Ok, maybe just the hottest day in October, but it’s still hot. By the time you get this email it will be 30 degrees. Then by the time you head out for lunch (or wag work and split for the beach) it will be a […]

This morning started off with cooler temps (9 degrees to be precise). The water is about 16 degrees which is quite chilling for Sydney. The waves are tiny and biggest at Bondi…it’s knee high and may get a little bigger later today. Next week I am going to visit my cuzi bros in En-Zed…this time […]
B L O W U P
The swell has arrived but so has that pesty SE onshore wind. Sometimes onshore Bondi can be kinda fun, no crowds, little more push but I reckon too much blow today…wait ‘til she settles. Tomorrow is going to be REALLY windy (30 knots) and wet…Sunday the winds should kick around to the NE and provide […]
N E L S O N
For something a lil’ different I was loitering around Bronte Pool this morning. Nice down there at sunrise. Not many waves at Bronte as Bondi had all the action. The swell came up as expected, approximately waist to chest high. Looks very weak…so ride something with a high volume of foam. Beautiful day to match, […]
Sauna
So…I bet you didn’t sleep last night in 40 degrees. Not unless you had air cond. You tossed and turned all night and feeling a little cranky at work today. I know the feeling. Have a double espresso. Knock yourself out. Today is a new day. The cooling southerly has taken over and the waves […]
Ramble
Hurro. Like many recent days we once again have sun, waves and now warmer temps. I am wearing shorts today and the my twigs are gonna see 24 degrees hopefully. There’s even a little wave on, the waist to chest high variety. Our newly renovated banks favour the right hander now. Good for the naturals. […]
RUOK?
How are you? Are you ok? Today is national RUOK? Day. RUOK? Foundation aims to prevent isolation by empowering people to support each other through life’s ups and downs. I’m pretty good at the moment…been surfing most days with all this swell – thanks for asking. It was an early chopper flight over Bondi this […]
Golden Left
There’s waves. Swear. Just gotta wait about 45 minutes for a set. The swell is dying and the morning high tide is flooding the banks. But the patient, early riser has scored a few fun ones this morning. The sunrise was good too! Good to see a bit of colour splashed around the place. My […]
Silly Season
Summer has finally kicked in and silly season has begun. Scores of people hit the beach yesterday, and some didn’t leave (see exhibit A above, must’ve strolled at of the Bondi hotel at the wee hours, fallen in Hungry Jacks, then passed out on the beach). Onya buddy. Poor fella has probably only been in […]
