Missed opportunities

Some nice waves this morning out of the rip at Juniors and at BP groyne. The winds were light, tide mid to full and the crowd a manageable five.

I was meant to be heading south this morning but my cold won't get better (or worse) and has given me infectious eye boggers. So not being allowed to work means no trip south.

The wind has just swung to the south and cranked into double figures. It looks like it will be onshore for the rest of the day, although the forecast does leave a little wiggle room for a late afternoon glass off.

The rip looks like it is around for a little while. Its the split personality of ocean currents. It is making the waves A frame and hold up into the channels but drags you out past the take off point and spits you down the beach. There is a lot more paddling than surfing !

The wind conditions look ok for tomorrow but on a pretty quickly dropping swell.
