Welcome to summer. Mother nature could have done a bit of a better job for us today instead of a howling southerly change. Only 19 degrees expected and it will remain overcast all day. On the upside, the ocean has been stirred up and there are some solid 4 ft wild and wooly waves hitting south facing Bondi. So it's looking good once the wind backs off again. Saturday looks like the day.
I had to dig into the archives for some eye candy. I was up early and drove around looking for a couple of shots but they would have been pics of the onshore mess. Back in May 2010 we had a solid south swell that worked its way along the south coast and into Bronte. There is a reef just below the cemetery that wakes up from time to time in these bigger swells. It is rarely surfed due to the danger of being washed up the cliff face but on this day in May the guys from Bronte including Tom Whitaker, Kobi Graham and John Dwyer all took it on and had one of the best surfs of their life.
Please check out this great VIDEO by talented creative Simon Lister. It pretty much some's up what it's like to live on the Eastern beaches. The imagery is amazing and the soundtrack by Guy Brown from Nylon Studios is a masterpiece.
