It’s a beautiful morning out there. Summer hasn’t quite deserted us after all but I shouldn’t speak too soon because the forecast is not crash hot.
Some nice little waves around on first light and quite a few crew out at all the beaches enjoying the first real clean conditions for a while. Bronte had some shifty lefts and rights in the middle which the before school groms were all over, tearing up anything that came their way.
I caught young shredder Tom Gooch walking down the pathway with an old beaten up board and asked why he wasn’t riding his new shooter. He told me he has dinged it and needs a repair job before it can be surfed again. I know how he feels and sympathize with him. I had lifeguard Aaron Graham spear a hole right through my board a few days ago. It’s always good to have an old back up ready for such situations.
I’m going to the Nikon Australian Surf Photo of the Year Awards tonight at Manly. Three of my images have made the top 20, so excuse me for blowing my own trumpet but I am a little excited. Let you know how I go tomorrow. Fingers crossed!
Have a great day!
Billy
