Cronullification
I like Cronulla. It’s a good Aussie beach suburb. I spent a bit of time down in ‘The Shire’ this morning. The people are just so damn nice, every says G’day. Cronulla, a surfing reserve, also hosts some of the best barrelling, slabbing reefs in the country. They’ve got a setup for every condition which is […]
Gold
The much talked about swell is here and slowly declining. It’s been a fun couple of days in Sydney with waves (finally) above your head. Crazy sunny skies today to boot! I hope you scored your wave quota amongst the massive crowds. In excitement of this swell I’ve been driving around everywhere and not really […]
Flab Slab
There is plenty of swell today. Bondi was breaking around 6 foot earlier this morning – not looking too pretty as the banks struggle to hold such size. We just don’t have any reefs around here that can take such force. I went for a drive to a Sydney slab thinking it might just switch […]

Yesterday was one of those days that snuck in under the radar. Most surfers fooled by the morning howl and threatening grey skies. Around lunchtime the swell had a […]

I saw a dude paddle out at south Bondi, shortly to return to the beach dissatisfied with the whole ordeal. I then saw another lone wolf drift out in the middle of Bondi, copped a rinsing, then returned to the beach, off to work. Further north at Mirra Kirra (aka North Bondi), I saw 3 […]
Ghost town
When it rains around here, Bondi is like a ghost town. When it pours, you can park where you want, surf any peak without a mini mal clocking you in the head and drink up a fresh batch of rain-runoff diuretic. It poured this morning so most stayed tucked up in the rack. 3-4 footers […]
