It was an overcast day, the swell was up and increasing. It is predicted to increase again tomorrow but so is the rain, so we'll see what happens. Hopefully we will be able to get out and take some photos of the waves on offer. I spent a couple hours in the sun at snapper and there was no shortage of pro's making thier appearance. There was a pretty strong crowd, and a pretty … [Read more...]

Today I went for a wave down at D'Bah and conditions were less than perfect. The wind was blowing about 15knots dead on shore. It was a pretty quick session but I caught a couple and atleast I got in the water. Later in the afternoon I headed over to Burleigh to see if anything was happenning there, answer nothing. One mal rider in the water and and couple of others down on the … [Read more...]

Today I headed down to D'Bah in afternoon, the weather was not great with overcast conditions and a touch of light rain. The waves were only in the wind blown 1-2ft range but there was still a good number of people surfing. Hopefully we'll have a little push in size as the swell is pretty small and not really offerring the best at the moment. If your keen for a wave though … [Read more...]

I was down at D'bah this morning around 9:30am after not being able to get to the beach the last couple of days due to other commitments. Boy what a change, there was not much happening with no real waves of any quality. I drove along the beach front and there was not much breaking from Kirra to Snapper, so I headed around the corner again to D'bah. Conditions were around the … [Read more...]

Today I went for a surf out at Snapper from 5am for a couple of hours. I got about a dozen waves,with three laps walking around from greemnount, all in all I had a pretty fun little session. Waves were in the 2-3ft mark and on the low tide were running all the way along the great super bank. I drove past D'Bah on the way home and could see that conditions were going to be … [Read more...]

Today I travelled down to my old hunting ground for a surf. Leaving home about 4am I got there just on sunrise and saw that the swell had dropped off a couple of feet from yesterday. A little dissapointed but as I was there I headed out with my local crew. Waves were clean and coming through around waist high sometimes a little higher. I surfed for about 3hrs before hitting the … [Read more...]

Today I was down at Snapper for a surf at 5am and already there was a large crew in the water. You got to be up early on the weekend these days if you wont to get a wave to yourself. Either that or take up night surfing. Anyway paddled out and into the first wave that came my way, it was only small but ran off a good 60 meters. I surfed my way to Greenmount then made the walk … [Read more...]

Today was spent at the beach, I was there at 530am and didn't leave till around 2pm. I went for a surf straight up and there was some really nice waves coming through. It felt a little bigger than the last few days and to date was the cleanest and best conditions I have seen since I got back back here to the Gold Coast. I picked up a couple but the dreaded crowd factor meant I … [Read more...]

This morning I was out at Snapper by 5:30am and there was some nice waves coming through. I managed to snavel a few of the hungry crew that were already in the water. The water is warm at around 22 degrees. The waves were in the 2-4ft range. I grabbed a wave off snapper rocks and then surfed my way down to Greenmount beach. I surfed till the arms were worn out paddling, before … [Read more...]

Today I was down at Snapper Rocks having a surf at 5:30am. There was only one guy in the water as conditions were a little onshore. By the time I got out there I was sitting byself with no-one around. I've never had that before, and soon enough others started to make their way into the line up. Waves were coming through in the 2-4ft mark, some were running off while others were … [Read more...]
