Chris and Deano, two amazing surfers from the Northern Beaches, gave me a buzz on Friday. ''Where are you gonna be out, Frother ? It'll be pumping around here''.
Chris wanted to shoot Deadman's. Unfortunately for him, the swell direction was not favorable. The swell was going past. Not enough East in the swell.
Deano wanted to surf Dee Why point, right off the rocks. A wave that can turn on with the bigger swell, very slabby and with a very technical take-off. Quoting the local ''the Northern Beaches version of Ours''.
Dee Why was indeed the pick. The wind meesed it up, but some nicer ones came through. It was a matter of smart picking and commitment.
So here are a few shots of that session, with changing light, weird waves and sometimes gnarly wipe-outs.
Congrat's to Mick, who's surfed like a Legend on the weekend. And for those who haven't seen the Perfect 10 of Tom Curren in the Heritage Heat vs. Occy, check it out. He's still got it, big time !
Have a great day.
