Friday to nothing
















Ok, friday afternoons finished and its time to party for most, but not the 5 of us.
We're packing our cars and heading down the coast!
After a lengthy stop at a shitty macdonalds we finally arrive around sussex inlet at 11pm.
We drive down the dirt track and can hear the surf and smell the fresh seabreeze.
Upon gazing out at the stars, by which are usually covered in the city smog.
We take a minute to reflect and hope the best for the morning swell.

We head back to the cars and get ready for the long night sleeping upright.
This is what its all about!
Around 6am we arise to the sound of wind and get amped to check the surf.
To our disappointment it seems to have dropped off over night and its looking pretty dismal.

So first things first its time for food while we head down to the next reef Pipe!
On the way we stop off for a minute and get some food! Rolls and sandwiches all round!!
After our food we race off down to the car park only to find the wind has turned dead onshore. :(
So we spend the next 40minutes driving around checking a few other unknown breaks and eventually head back no the sun has come out and the wind is making up its mind.

After the short walk down the trail we are greated with a hightide, 1-2ft sweet and a fairly mellow off shore breeze, so we all suit up and rush in. Over the next few hours the swell shapes up a little and the tide comes in slightly but still not enough to give this great break its pumping shape! Disapointed to say the least we all trudged back to the car and thought about lunch.
Ohh how macdonalds becomes part of your stable diet when on the road!

Well after our feed we decided to jump back in the car and try our luck with a beach break as for now the wind was a little seedy in direction and we were sure the swell would have been ok! But too our disbelieve we were greeted with 1ft onshore slop! Not the most favourable conditions to anyone wanting to be at a beach unless ofcourse your the type that goes down to hang out in the heat!
