There’s the pumping waves of Saturday morning and then there’s today. Saturday morning proved to be one of the best surf days this year so far. Strong, solid East swell with gentle offshores. Such a good combination. Then Sunday was shambles…windy. 30 knots ripped it apart. Today we have a confused swell, some East swell […]

Howdy. Some really fun waves down at Bondi this morning. It’s killing me being inside now… Yesterday we were blessed with some of the best waves I’ve seen in ages. Nice surprise swell wasn’t it? So today you’ve all filled your wave quotas and keen to watch some Quiky pro action which is about to […]

The best thing about a drive up the coast is that you basically keep driving until you find waves. There are just so many options along the East Coast. Mid-week is also a bonus (and out of Skool Hols) as most beaches are relatively deserted. Yep, the best time of year as its still summer. […]
The Zara Lefts
It was little different down the beach this morning. The wind was blowing onshore, grey tones dominated the skies and it was all quiet. Mondays rock. ‘The Left’ was working, not many out which was a refreshing change. Boy-oh-boy it’s been busy out there…nearly as busy as the new Zara store with crazy ladies running […]
Bronte Bunker
Windy and chunky – that’s a good summation of what I saw down the beach today. You’ll need to surf nooks and crannies tucked away from the Southerly. Its kinda offshore right now, SW, but it will edge around to the South later today and pick up to 20 knots. Typical winter’s day. Rained 3 […]
Back in Bondi
I am back in Bondi…for a bit…returning from my Indonesian junket. The temperatures have dropped a lot in Sydney whilst I was away. Fresh mornings! If you like surfing 2-3 foot Bondi, alone. Today is for you. Barely anyone surfing and relatively empty beach this morning. Waves weren’t quite lining up perfectly, but worth getting […]
Sun soak
Its real nice outside…for now. Soak it up. It’s gonna hit 24 degrees and remain like this until a storm blows late arvo/early evening bringing a spot of rain. The wind is gentle, 10 knots from the NW making conditions nice and clean for surfers. Bondi had a little 2-3 foot wave. Looks to be […]
Autumn
These autumn mornings are great. Today was especially great because: With the recent time change my body still thinks it’s 6:30am when it’s 5:30am. You can fit a whole world of stuff in before heading to ‘work’. Also it’s not a strain to get up and see/shoot the sunrise. The sunrises are best in Autumn. […]
Boom
It is bucketing down this morning. I won’t dwell on that. I sat in the Bondi car park with Birdie around 7am watching 4-5 footers chug into Bondi – not a soul around. No one surfing. It actually looked surfable, just need some night vision goggles. I think we could all do with a bit […]
Good Morning
Good morning. Wasn’t it just. The beach was rammed this morning, early. I walked around with someone from New York and they were blown away at the masses doing stuff on the beach at 6:30am. I don’t think many places in the world have so many people so active so early. The surf was not […]
Made in China
Looks like I didn’t missing many good waves Monday or Tuesday this week (yes, I am still in China in that same room looking at the wall for the 3rd day). But hang on…just got Kane Skennar’s images from Bondi this morning… it looks like fun 2-3 footers as the wind has finally backed off. […]
Morning Antics
Well hasn’t Huey switched on this morning. Much better than forecasted. We’ve got clean 3-4 walls rolling through Bondi, little wind and blaring sunshine (thought it was meant to rain – eh?). Gotta love Mondays when everyone is busy at work…Swell is dead south (that’ll be 180 degrees) and winds are westerlies. It’s going to […]
Storm
Cheer up, this stormy weather is not so bad. The garden never looked so green…the car is sparkling and your sulo bin is running amuck in your neighbour’s yard. The 30 knot southerly is ruining your surf opportunities though. A ‘wave’ was breaking at North Bondi – but, wow, you’d wanna be keen. Friday things […]
