Possibly my last post
 
Beacuse I'm just about to leave the house to go surfing and the swell is BIG and getting BIGGER.

The surf forecast is for "Carnage"

Those pink boardies he wears aren't very fetching.:)

Swell picked up here but so did the crowds. I would be damaged someone else and more worryingly dinged my board so I gave up. Hopefully there will be something left after work tomorrow.

Looks as if it caught a few people out.

Phew,

What a session. 4 metre swell - MASSIVE waves. Bloke next to me had his board smashed in to pieces.

Powerful rip to the left another one to the right.

I stayed in the white foam at the front, there was no way I was going to join the boogie boarding grommets in the big ones.

Great fun.

That is a big old swell. What scares me when going for the reformed waves in those conditions is getting dragged into the dumping spot.

Is Trigg your local?

It is, although my old instructor was there and advised Cottesloe is better for beginners like me in big conditions.

But maybe he wanted to get rid of me as my board had just hit him after a big wipe out.

This is how it looks this morning.
