  • coffs wobble 13th december / daily / December 13, 2012 / tom
    Pity this north-east swell is so sloppy hey? We had ideal winds this morning with a incoming tide but Coffs is just not loving this direction... further north on the Gold coast and some north coast points is ...

  • pointbreak 6th feb / daily / February 6, 2012 / tom
    Back from Byron Bay yesterday and straight into some sunshine and waves on home turf. When I left Coffs (wednesday 1st) in was pouring rain and miserable, but that weather cleared off the east coast nicely ...
  • just like autumn 5th dec / daily / December 5, 2011 / tom
    What a surprise it was to wake up to semi pumping surf yesterday morning. Huey finally came through on Sunday and produced a clean east groundswell with offshore winds for the early birds and he brought some sunshine ...
  • its coming 7th july / daily / July 7, 2011 / tom
    Yesterday's swell has gone as quick as it came. A strong overnight offshore wind has blown that east swell back out to where it came from, but in turn has left us with some flawless surface conditions, all ready for ...
  • welcome sun 31st may / daily / May 31, 2011 / tom
    It was a nice surprise to see clear skies and a burning sun rising over the horizon this morning. Forecasters were calling for heavy showers and thick cloud! The waves looked pretty sweet too, a nice little south east swell ...
  • other duties 24th may / daily / May 24, 2011 / tom
    Has our dream run come to an end??..... well maybe for a few days, another south swell is set to march up the coast tomorrow afternoon, but until that hits we have some very tiny clean waves. Grommets and loggers ...
  • cone of light 9th feb / daily / February 9, 2011 / tom
    A perfect cone of yellow light shone beneath the increasing cloud this morning and gave me something worth while to point my camera at. The beach I lobbed on to also had a fair bit of talent floating ...
  • one hit 16th december / daily / December 16, 2010 / tom
    Yesterday's swell spike turned out to be a one-hit wonder. Heard some reports of good arvo sessions last night, but most of it is gone this morning. Only knee high peelers lapping the beaches at first light. Conditions were prime ...
  • tubes 18th october / daily / October 18, 2010 / tom
    Some super springtime tubes about the place this morning. There was just enough swell to light up the outside sandbanks, even on the early morning high tide. The whole coast looks so different after all that rain and big south ...
  • hazy 1st september / daily / September 1, 2010 / tom
    Bushfire smoke filtered the rising sun as a north west wind gently blew across the ocean at dawn this morning, all the signs that the warm weather is just around the corner. The southerly swell is smaller today, but that ...
  • sneaky swell 25th august / daily / August 25, 2010 / tom
    South swell magnets were pulling in some overhead waves this morning. The peak of this sneaky swell was unfortunatley squashed by a flooding 8.30am high tide. Beaches that aren't accepting of the directional south swell were still idling in struggle ...
  • warm blanket 20th august / daily / August 20, 2010 / tom
    A thick blanket of cloud covered us folk on the mid north coast at first light and kept us toasty warm. If was nice not to have freezing cold fingers clinging on to the tripod at 6.30 this morning. The ...
  • its on! 18th august / daily / August 18, 2010 / tom
    We are back on this morning! the swell started creeping in last night and today the dawn patrollers were greeted with a solidish south east swell. The winds are going to be fairly light all day, maybe a slight puff ...
  • hoax 4th august / daily / August 4, 2010 / tom
    Another winter hoax swell!! the charts had most of us very excited about today.... 4 meter swell, west winds and sunshine. We did get some sunshine, but the waves heights are only just overhead with a messy southerly chopping up ...
  • monday 2nd august / daily / August 2, 2010 / tom
    All of today's photos were from Sunday morning. I was on a plane at 6.30 this morning bound for Sydney, so no early morning update. The waves were only small yesterday but the weather was flawless..... sunshine, light winds and ...
  • warm 30th july / daily / July 30, 2010 / tom
    Cracking day outside. Super warm and sunny, the water temps are still good and we are still in the middle of winter!! there are a few waves around this morning, but not as good as what most of us had ...
  • northern shredders 26th july / daily / July 26, 2010 / tom
    Nothing much to shoot this morning, a lumpy, small swell is been ruffled by an early southerly wind. We got better photo opportunities up north at the woopi boardriders on sunday morning, so it's all about them today....
  • smiling 19th july / daily / July 19, 2010 / tom
    main pic: john craig... sunday fun. Every weekend surfer should still have a smile on their face after yesterday. We had perfect conditions right up until lunchtime on Sunday. A well spaced out south east swell was brushed clean with grooming ...
  • sickie 10th july / daily / July 10, 2010 / tom
    We were missing in action yesterday.... sort of had a sickie, so we are making up for it with a Saturday post. Waves are better today anyway. The wind isn't as strong and that swell is a little more organised ...
  • steam 29th june / daily / June 29, 2010 / tom
    Frosty land temperatures triggered some billowing steam  off the ocean surface this morning. With the water temps hovering around 19 degrees, there was a big difference to the 5 degrees land temps we had at 6.30. Cold, clear starts normally ...
  • monday clouds 24th may / daily / May 24, 2010 / tom
    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 any small ...
  • diversity 11th may / daily / May 11, 2010 / tom
    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 ...

    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 ...
