Transition

Easy to roll out of bed and drop straight into the ocean on these kind of mornings. It was a balmy 22 degrees all night and the ocean is running about the same. With the air sitting at 70 percent humidity it's an easy transition…

High Lows

We're in for a warm week in Sydney and beyond. It's not so much the top temps that'll take a toll but the low's in the morning's afternoon's and evening's. According to the Bureau it's not going to drop below 20 degrees for the next…

Sunny Start

So nice to start the day with clear sky and sunshine once again. It';s been a bit of a mixed run of unstable weather but today and the next couple are looking warm, dry and sunny.

Summer Official

Welcome to the official start of summer. It's feel like the genesis of this summer began a month or so back when the BoM declared an El Nïno event. Since then we've had a couple of cyclones in the Pacific, some cool days…

Nothingness

It's been a weird and wonderful 24 hours of weather. Rain, thunderstorms, plenty of lightning, a late wind change (waves got really yesterday afternoon) and thick heavy fog at first light this morning. It's all but cleared now… x

Clouds Gather

We had 10 minutes glimpsing the sun this morning and chances are that'll be it for the day. Had to see the sun finding any gaps with the heavy rain clouds are gathering.  The local  forecast is a little grim with a chance of up to…

Moments of Light

This morning had some beautiful moments of shifting light as the sun ducked and weaved through a column of clouds rapidly sailing across the horizon. I quite like these kind of morning where waiting in the

Sub-50

If you're in the sub-50kg category and your shortboard dim's begin with a 4, you've got access to a whole other world of waves that are completely unsurfable to the rest of us. This morning, the sub-50 crew were frothy…

South End

Yesterday got good didn't it?!  After a very average and onshore morning, the wind eventually turned, the waves cleaned up and the afternoon rolled on with decent waves end to end. I'm sure text messages went flying…

Mixology

It's a real mixed bag going on out there today. Long period south swell and short period swell from a couple of days of localised nor'easters is wedging together under very still, humid conditions.

L8

I was a touch late to the party with the camera today. Made the call to join the throng of surfers for the early and left shooting til that magical time after 8am when everyone used to disappear to jobs in the city or schools…

Go Figure

It would pay to have some insights into crowd behaviour/psychology to be a surfer these days. This morning I was blown away by how many people were in the line up already by 6am; a morning of overcast conditions, light…

Spring Warmth

These are my favourite kind of Spring morning. When there's that residual warmth in the air and water, the air is clear with a light offshore and there's just enough cloud scattered about to soften the light and add a little

Float

Morning and a very happy Friday to you. It's another morning of high frequency, short period swell out on the Tasman. It's was trying to be peaky but the reality was most waves hit the banks as a closeout and floaters

High Frequency

Weird little wind swell out on the water today. The waves were so tightly packed together I found myself either ducking under one or a lump of water ahead of me blocking the view of the wave behind. It was only 1-2ft…

That Time

Perfect spring morning out on the sand, sun's out and the wind is calm. It's that time of the year when temperature and timing make morning activities oh-so easy and inviting. It's light enough to leave the house…

Home Shine

Morning! Nice to be back home and even better to time it with the sunshine. We've been up the coast camping offgrid, offline and mostly with the tools tucked away out of sight. It's a nice quiet time to be out of town…

Spring Rhythm

Feels like we've found ourselves a nice Spring rhythm in Sydney. Warm days, sunshine, long afternoons and light winds make Spring a very comfortable time of the year.
