On the build.

On the build.

The waves today are double that of yesterday.  They are on the build and tomorrow will see a peak of BIG swell  from the south.  I can’t predict how big as it is really hard to forecast size.  It may not be rideable.  Today it is very rideable though, in the 3...
It’s a warm winter Tuesday

It’s a warm winter Tuesday

It’s much warmer this morning.  This is due to the welcome departure of that antarctic blast and the arrival of some low cloud cover keeping the winter warmth in.  It’s pretty small out there and even with a mid tide early the waves were fairly weak and...
3 days off.

3 days off.

Yay it’s Friday of the long weekend.  3 days off for the workers of this city.  More days to go surfing during the middle of the day.  Rather than do the chilly sand run to the waters edge during the morning sesh.  The early morning temp was around 5C but the...
Another Beautiful Winters’ morning.

Another Beautiful Winters’ morning.

How good is Winter! The mornings are crisp with beautiful warming sunshine and nice light to shoot with.  The waves are pretty small but the conditions are FAB.  Hardly a breath of wind… love it.  It’s only 1 to maybe 2 foot out there this morning and the...
Smaller but fun

Smaller but fun

The waves have dropped to the 3 foot range and the tide was super low for my early shoot.  One thing I did learn was the sand was super cold, even colder than the air temp of around 8C.  Got to wear some shoes from now on although the water is still nice and warm at...
The SPoYs’ are back in town

The SPoYs’ are back in town

After a great 2 week trip up the north coast the SPoYs are back.  Back for the start of Winter and lower temperatures. I have heard it has been very chilly here on the Northern Beaches but the great swell has more than compensated for the frosty conditions.  The swell...
Snapper to Cooly to Kirra.

Snapper to Cooly to Kirra.

Wow the swell on the east coast has really jumped.  Snapper all the way down to Kirra was a solid 3 – 6 foot with some big barrels to be had.  Kirra was freight training it from the break wall all the way down the beach.  It was so good to watch.  There were...
Spoyagers’ maiden voyage

Spoyagers’ maiden voyage

We have taken our new RV on it’s maiden voyage.  Mrs SPoY aptly named her “Spoyager”.  Where else to take a trip, than the east coast of NSW and into Qld.  We have settled into her very nicely and are enjoying her creature comforts.  Although we...
Still bearing fruit.

Still bearing fruit.

The low pressure system that developed last week is still bearing fruit.  There are heaps of fun waves around and the swell direction is a little more east.  It is still in the 3 – 4 foot range with a few bigger ones every once in a while. These conditions will...
Afternoon delight

Afternoon delight

I’m slowly getting back into it.  Yesterday I posted a couple of days previous.  Today I’m only a day behind.  Conditions have been spectacular recently so to change things up, I shot a few frames yesterday afternoon.  The light was dreamy as were the...
