Firstly, how's the Aussie A-Team over in New York – Sam Stosur and Owen Wright! It's nice to see the podium mixed up a bit with some Aussie blood. On home shores, the swell kicked into a higher gear over night. It seems a bit more powerful, somewhat more rogue than the last few days. Every now and then a good sized bomb will wash through. There were even a few closing out the bay at Bronte this morning. That's your best chance of a wave if you're keen enough. Maybe wait till later though, when the wind is expected to drop off. The water is a chilly 15.8 degrees on the temp stick so take some good rubber with you.

Head down, bum up – welcome to the working week. Brad.
