Violated!!! This is what happened to me in my lunch time surf at Money Trees today in G-Land. 6-8ft chunky sets coming in with a not quite right Trade blowing a bit south, and with these non-stop sets breaking up Kongs & Fan Palm (which you couldn’t surf because of the current) creating a gay current all day running down the entire point. Despite that, there was the odd sick one that would offer a big barrel. Late morning I witnessed a bit of the Dr Phil Chapman & Matt Doebell show, as they scored a few sick tubes each.
Back to my G-Land Surf violation, I finally (more…)

G-Land had a thick mist over the line-up for the first few hours of the morning, and while it sounded big and loud, I could not quite tell. Once the fog lifted mid morning I realised it was perhaps the biggest swell I’ve seen here since 2007! Too big for here today really.

As predicted, we all woke up too an active ocean. G-Land Surf was solid, the Bombie had some big sets on the low tide (infact all day long it had some big sets), and the offshore soon followed about 9am, helping clean up the 6-8ft swell. There was even the odd rogue 10ft set that came through… (more…)
