Nice. GME, been looking in to Cap du l'Homy on your recommendation earlier in this thread. Like it, but wondered what the free camping scene is like round those parts - any knowledge? I'm talking for July August time. Cheers.

It looks weird from this angle

[SA Chris]

'cos you have the wrong foot forward

Mesmerising and terrifying to watch

[clm]

That's the right foot forward. Also the correct foot

Yarp!  It's been pumping all week, had a particularly fine glassy low-tide session on Thursday, overhead with lulls between sets for easy paddle outs, sun was out and it was about 11 degrees C at midday, it actually felt warm for a while.  Looks like today was the last of the quality for a while.

Day 2 of the comp and the sun has shone down

Don't think I've seen this video in the thread yet (only posted three weeks ago)

Can't imagine the wipeouts. Astonishing how fast any splashes or white water are ripped up the face and over the falls.
Ouch

one from a couple of weeks ago on a southern swell:

[ben]

ooo hoo hoo how good is the surf today!  and forecast to stay good for the new few days. This coupled with my new patagucci suit makes me a happy bunny..      should this be in the YYFYWGS thread?

[gme]

i saw that you lucky buggers. Naff all on the east.

Had a decent run of surf a couple of weeks ago, that i missed a lot off, but other than that its been a pretty shite winter again.

[SA Chris]

You not get anything on Sunday gme? mates who were up at Fraserburgh said it was good, maybe a touch too much west in the swell?

[gme]

A combination of it being small, not feeling well and the wifes birthday made me not bother.
I looked and it was maginal on a shortboard, spots further south might have been better but divorce would have been on the cards if i had buggered off for the day.

10 days to indo so i can wait.

You logging pool time to keep fitness up?

[ben]

You logging pool time to keep fitness up?

nope he's in the tanning studio drinking Bintang!

[clm]

Pools irritate me. Anyone ever considered doing some long paddle on inland water just for fitness? Or would I look silly?

[SA Chris]

Pools irritate me too, but like climbing walls are a necessary evil.

I sometimes take my longboard out for a paddle on sunny flat days on the coast near our house. I make sure no-one sees me walking down with it though, and wouldn't do it at a beach where anyone would see me, as I would either get daft questions or feel a bit daft dappling out on a flat day. I think on inland waters I would feel silly.

Get yourself down Sale water park Clm. No one will bat an eyelid, honest.
