Windy city! We seem to be copping a buffeting from all directions lately. At least it has some south in it because that is making the water warm up again. Three words to describe my visit to the beach early this morning; very, very, bad! It was raining as well but it looks like it is clearing up a bit now. I’ve decided not run all the dark and drab photos I shot today, instead I have thrown in a bit of colour that will hopefully brighten your day.

Have you noticed the amount of girls surfing lately? Every surf I go for these days I see a female or three paddling around and it’s great to see. When I was young I only knew one girl that surfed and she was build like a guy and ripped! At Sunset Beach in Hawaii the other day, in front of the world stage, a male pro surfer was beaten by a girl in a competition. It doesn’t happen too often. It’s a funny interview.

We should see lighter winds for the weekend but the swell will drop. It’s only the wind that has been giving us swell and its average quality leaves us all hoping for something a little bigger, straighter and stronger soon. Lets keep our fingers crossed.

Our MacPherson Street Gallery in Bronte is open until 5pm today and all weekend from 9am4pm. Pop in and check out some great Xmas ideas or visit our online store.

Have a good weekend!
