banks on Holiday

Report - Decreasing 3m SW. Light offshore (morning). 7.04 am High Tide.

There isnt one decent bank between Lumpies and RSLs. At high tide you really should be able to get a decent wave, but the banks seem to have closed for the Xmas break. They were around last week, so how they can so quickly disappear?

Still at the end of the day (or rather beginning before the wind turns onshore) its nice to get out and get wet.

Crowds could be found today at Rebounds and Sandpits. Not many at RSLs.

The next few days look good for fishing or drinking.

Christmas Comes Early for Surfers

report - 3.5m SW swell. no wind (sea breeze later). 10.30 High (1.46m)

Wegde is cranking this morning. Its quite setty, but thats when the good ones roll in.

After 2 weeks of flatness, the swell kicked on Tuesday, but was too windy, however there was plenty of leftovers for Wed mornings high tide at RSL's. plenty of head high - ohead waves holding up and only a few out.

Thurs was way too windy again, but the swell is still good this morning.

Its really too big for everywhere else, so Wedge is quite crowded. Plenty of waves to go around with 5 - 6 wave sets.

Could sneak in another session before the sea breeze.

still lack of action

Its been so long without a decent wave that people are getting excited about 1 footers.

With howling onshores and flat seas lets just hope the prediction for friday comes true, but by then maybe we will all have forgotten how to stand up on a wave.

flat again

report - 1m SW swell. 20 - 25kt westerlies.

its been flat for a few days again.

Fortunately tasmania has more than 1 coast. So yesterday Boneyards was ok in the morning. Worth the paddle, just. Whilst being far from being as good as it can be, there were still some nice long rides.

The east coast also had some good waves yesterday and this morning.

Things are looking slightly better for the weekend, but not fantastic.

Down for the Count

Report - its raining, onshore and shitty.

This surfer has been down and out with a nasty head cold, so I have no idea if there are any good banks left or even how the swell has been this week.

The weather man says it will be pretty much similar conditions for the next few days so maybe its a good time to go Xmas shopping. (if there is ever a good time that is).

Hopefully things will improve next week
