I live here go surfing just about everyday seen many sharks around the area but mainly away from the main surfing beaches.Lid eh?
Bodyboarding, surfing, stand up paddlers and goat boats, its all the same. As long as people are having fun in the water and respect the ocean, it's awesome.
Here is a picture from two years ago. It's a small day at Creacent head point.
Yeah, GNARLY DUUUDE.wat a sihk thread
yea bois surfing is my life. i was born in a small surf town in sydney, so i grew up on a beach. i learnt how to surf when i was about 7 and havnt ever lost that feeling from my first wave. i have just gotten back from a surfing camp that was so awsum. few interesting stories was surfing out on a peak off the rocks once. was droppin in on a 6-7 foot face, and out of no where a chick pops out of the water an i ran straight into her. i fell off, and managed to grab hold of her an help her to the rocks. id gone straight into her chest. i took her to the hospital an she had a cracked rib. she apologised non stop it was noones fault just happens.
lookinf forward to more input fellas
Are you joking? The only barrel that counts is standing up deep in a pit with your hands above your head and getting spat out in glory.....Can't waste descent barrels on a stand up.
Dude it has been shit up here for most of the year. It is really starting to bug me.Anyone else noticed the overall poor quality lately??
ENSo is in a La Nina phase - there is a meterological reason for shitty swell on the East Coast in the last 2 years.Yep i surf every day on central coast nsw. However am surfing less as the quality of waves has quickly deteroirated in the past couple of years

Crowds have tripled past few years - why does everyone want to be a surfer?
I reckon it would be a nightmare to learn once you have reached 25yrs old (i am 38 been surfing my whole life and am still progressing)
I kinda did the same thing (surfing though). Early one morning my mate and I were looking at the swell from our beachhouse and saw a black figure in the water. we went down to the beach to have a closer look and saw if was a seal chasing a school of fish. Anyway that morning we went into town for a while then came back and had a surf. After two hours my mate when and sat on the beach and i stayed out for a while. I was getting ready to catch a wave when i saw this black thing swim past me, I did a double take and looked back at it and the first thing I though was "OH SHIT, SHARK!" because i knew there were some smaller sharks in the area because my dad had almost caught one fishing. I pretty much sat my pants and did the first thing a could think of, catch the first wave back to land. I caught a wave that was just behind me and made a beeline for the shore. After about 15 metres I looked to my left agian and i saw the black shape again but then it rolled over and i saw it's yellowish belly and then i knew it was the seal from early. I was still feaked out later and to make it worse my mate had missed it.I don't surf with a board, prefer just to catch waves the natural way. Anyway, I was visiting Coffs and was out really , really early, nobody else on the beach. I'm floating out the back looking over my shoulder at a likely wave rising up behind me (the sun was behind it, just over the horizon) I see this huge, black shape in it, with that characteric vertical fin on the back ..... my heart froze. It swam right at me and then passed a couple of meters away from me, and as it passed (and I sort of fell into the wave)... I saw that it had a horizontal fin. So, I caught a wave with a dolphin, but it still took me half an hour to stop shaking!
Thats classic - trying not to start lid rider jokes.... only jokingNice pics! agreed, bodyboarding is the second best thing.
Was out at currimundi on a 6ft day about 5 months ago, set had just gone through and i was out about 130 metres...with a mate. He caught a wave, so i was all on my own. Next thing BAM...a fucking Male Dugoung starts trying to attack me. I shat my pants, i got onto a smaller wave to the shore.
This creature was massive and it was pissed of something fierce, very scary haha.
