After the drought comes the rain...

Yours truly at a spot he surfed alot in the past week. And shouldn't there be a bit of drop knee there Thombo?

After last weekends mini-mission I was lucky enough to get in the water locally most nights last week. True it was far from being the biggest or most memorable surf I've had but the warm weather and late night sliding gave me my fair share of stoke. Noticed elements of my surfing progress too due to just consistently being in the water. Just need to hold unto it through this next system of northerly winds and drought of decent waves...

Snow Surf pt II

Enjoyed another wee snow surf the end of last week. Conditions weren't near as good as Boxing Day 'nor was my surfing. Was grand the first hour but got stiff and slow after that resulting in some serious fustration. Looks like the thaws finally on its way here too...

A long overdue update...

Although I've been blogged in nearly 6 weeks I've probably been surfing as much if not more than ever. Yours truly enjoying some Friday night fishing after some truly leg breaking footy.

The locals been having its days.

Rick my housemate has well and truly caught the surf bug. Here he is crusing on the longboard.

Yours truly pumping out the last of the long evenings

Whats the view from your sofa like?

Tea time sessions...

Ricky my new housemate has been out surfing with me 4 or 5 times since we moved in. He's gotta be one of the most confidant and fastest learners I've ever seen. Last night was his first night outside of the local and another climb in the learning curve.

Teatime hack

Went for a few waves yesterday evening after uni. Seems like everyone was enjoying the teatime/ post work session before the light starts to fade. Unfortunately the light was already gone by the time I got out of the water to take a few snaps, leaving my only resort to take a few in black and white.

The end of a great weekend...

Last orders. Twilight wave on Sunday night.

At least we won't be waiting long till the next run of swell

Had a great weekend surfing 6 times in 4 days. It wasn't always perfect but it was alot of fun. My Saturday morning on the fish and Sunday morning on the new longboard (I know, I've bought a longboard...) being the standouts. Looks like theres alot more to come aswell...
