autumn magic

Sunny, offshore winds, last day of autumn is living up to its rep. Waves have been good for days and it looks like continuing for a while yet. Surfing at this time of year is so sweet!....click here to see more pics from today

wet

Wet n wild this morning on the Coffs coast, a howling southerly wind and grey skies aint making the surfing option really inviting at the moment. Last night however was a totally different story,  conditions were prime!! from lunch time onwards there was a perfect offshore wind blowing against this new south-east groundswell, it was one of those special late autumn evenings. We got down the beach for the last 4...click here to see more pics

rising

Well it didn’t stay small for long. This morning we were greeted with a new groundswell. It seems to be building through the morning and coupled with these offshore winds it could be a really good surf day. I spent a while sear..... CLIK HERE to see more pics from today

monday clouds

Not much energy in the waves today, just shoulder high swell flopping on to some high tide banks at first light, the beach I photographed this morning didn’t inspire any surf action shooting. But if you know of.... CLICK HERE to see more and get the links to some new stuff on our website

new video clip - Duskie

Back in late April I photographed Brett Caller and Sage Joske sliding on some late arvo point waves. I also shot a little bit of video and put a short clip together. CLICK HERE to have a peep

silhouettes

For about 20 minutes this morning I had a killer golden backdrop to work with. The sunrise just had enough room between the horizon cloud cover and the heavy overcast sky above. Lucky for me Alex Swadling was out there and doing most of his surfing above the lip, so I managed to get so..... click here to see more aerial shots from today

Well the strong southerly from yesterday backed right off this morning. It was a peaceful looking coastline today. A small weak wave just gently peeling under some interesting cloud formations. There were more early mo...click here to see the surf action from today.

That solid swell kept on pulsing this morning. South facing beaches were getting hammered by a 3 meter swell, while beaches that are even a little bit protected from the south were quite small. Theme for toda...CLICK HERE to see some more shots from the morning session

I could hear the ocean rumbling as I woke up this morning, and I knew it was going to be on! the big surf from yesterday morning really faded out during the day and last night it was only half the size. But Huey was up bright and early this mo....CLICK HERE to see more barrels from today

The ocean has some energy today!! A strong south-east swell has stepped up a notch overnight and is starting to light up the coffs coast. Double overhead sets were pounding on to the high tide banks early this morning, the swell still looked a little unorganised, but I’m tipping that will clean up over the next day or so and we coul......

The swell is starting to ramp up this morning, it seems to be the start of this new south-east swell that is predicted to peak on Friday and into the weekend. I was only down there for about a half hour this morning and this particular beach w....click here to see more from today

diversity

Another cracking morning in Coffs again. The swell is maybe a touch smaller, but it’s still clean and it’s still barrelling. Great week to be a surfer!!. Today’s post and updated gallery is full of people having fun on everything from “stand up paddle” boards to alaia’s to bodyboards to modern quad fish boards and high performance thrusters. I love the diversity of whats been ridden over the last 3 years, each of these crafts were finding different parts of th.... click here to read more and see more pics

Oh yeah… its pumping down there this morning. Clean overhead waves pounding on to the high tides banks. I’ve heard that spots are firing up and down our coastline at the moment, autumn is serving us up a treat. But hold the bus, its predicted to get even better o.... click here to see more barrels from todays session

 Super fun surf this morning folks. A nice south-west wind is shaping a great little south-east swell. Maybe head high on the sets waves, but they have some really nice shape. Blue sk....... click here to see more pics from this morning

jumpers

I had to pull on a jumper this morning! a cool south west wind sprung up over night and gave us a little warning that winter is just around the corner. The southerly has pushed in a bit more swell, but it’s peaky and close together, doesn’t look like the new swell will b........click here to see more from this morning

homemade wave

THIS IS RAD!!!!
Working in conjunction with the Indian government, ASR Ltd completed construction of India’s first Multi-Purpose Reef in February, 2010. The primary purpose of the reef is to mitigate coastal erosion from monsoon waves in the small town of Kovalam. The reef also creates an excellent habitat for marine species. Finally, as this video shows, the reef has helped create a great surf spot. CLICK HERE to watch the clip

Grey and stormy was the way it looked around 6 this morning. Big dark clouds closing in on the northern corners, while little glassy waves peeled off below. I was quick enough to shoot a few pics before the heavy clouds dumped their load at ar.... click here to see more

Really glassy conditions first up this morning. A nice sunrise at 6.10am gave way to overcast skies. The swell from the weekend is still hanging in there, although it is a little smaller and weaker. Anywhere with a good low tide ba...click here to see more from this morning
