Snapper
For the fourth day in a row the Quiksilver Pro is on at Snapper Rocks. A small but rippable east swell has been feeding the best surfers in the world. Today they ran round 4 of the men’s and the girls are in the water right now. You can watch it live. So far Adriano […]

washout
Went down to shoot pics and was stuck in the car for a while whilst the heavens opened up. It was so dark at 7:30am. Didn’t stop raining for ages, so I drove back up the hill and started flicking through the Boost Air Sho pics from the weekend. Amazing what those kids can do […]

Finals
This is the last update from the Quiksilver Pro presented by Land Rover at Snapper Rocks, Queensland. It’s a massive day up here…an early 7:30am start to catch the low tide tubes and glassy conditions. Biggest waves of the comp so far with 3-4 footers reeling down the point. I’ve said it before, Snapper is […]

Snapper Pockets
Sorry about the late transmission… Today the Quiksilver Pro presented by Land Rover (yes very formal these days) was on again up here on the Gold Coast. Snapper was pumping out 2-3 footers, pretty hard work on the high tide (just shoulders) but smoking on the low tide (like now). Highlights: At 6am the pre […]

overzealous
I shot a lot of pics this morning – more than normal. I am not sure if it was because: a) I read too many photography books on the weekend (and was a bit overzealous) b) Had too many coffees c) There was just a lot going on this morning down the beach (pros, airs, […]

Sluggish
The ocean looked a little lethargic this morning. The swell period pushed up but waves were smaller than yesterday. Bondi had a weak, dribbly 1-2 footer at sunrise (7am)…loads of crew flappin’ around in search of their very own bump. Swell seems to be in the middle of switching from south to nor-east…as later in […]

Dawn
Special kind of day today – a cracker. Light offshores (w) with plenty of sunshine. Small 1-2 foot waves (surfable on mals and fishes).Warm land temps with a max of 26…ah yes, a perfect day to be down the beach. The current plague of jelly fish in town are reaping havoc amongst swimmers…still. Incredible sunrise…I […]

Jordy Smith at Bondi
“It’s been a long time between drinks for a contest at Bondi, since ’88. I like Bondi a lot, it’s cool. It’ll be fun to be there and have a contest. It doesn’t sorta happen there very much. Usually its Rod Kerr running around the beach in his Speedos. But the rest of us are […]

Lucky dip
What a surprise to find a pumping wave down at Bondi this morning around 7:30am. The prediction was for tiny, weak and barely surfable waves. The goods will be short-lived – if not all over by now – as the South Easterly onshores prepare to blow 18 knots. Good while it lasted. Even inspired me […]
