Australia Day
No photos for this one. Surprisingly good waves despite a moderate NNE cutting into it. Surfed at the North end to stay out the wind a bit. Evil shorebreak that was chewing up swimmers and sand though getting rolled around in just a shortie meant it didn't feel quite so threatening as mid-winter. One guy was out with a hand plane and making good use of it, catching waves from the outside all the way into the shore. Have only seen people use those at The Wedge and Hawaii before so it was a novelty. Though in the Summer it seems anything goes; longboards, yellow and blue foamies, knee boards, surf skis, rescue skis, fish, boards that look like eggs (and surf with about as much finesse as one). With the recent flat spell finally broken they're all out.
