Sunday 2-3' and glassy dawnie with puff of light S in morning, going moderate S in arvi. Monday ditto again. Mild light wind seas continue, swell easing down the whole time. Light SW goes moderate SW. Surf 1-2'. Tuesday flat to 1' in light SW, moderate to fresh S in arvi. Yawn.

Friday delivers bollock reducing wedgies in neargale SE breezes and freezing and rapidly dropping 3' surf in translucent ice water. FB kaput tho solid 4' windslosh lapping up against Muizies. Saturday freezing 3-4' surf in lighter cleaner lekker SE offshores if you have titanium wetsuit. FB mushy and dropping 2-3'. Sunday is an exact replica of Saturday. Monday is a classic. No wind. Calm. Clean. One problem. Flat as a pancake. Tuesday light W to NW bump on an otherwise tiny day. 1-2' at most. FB is same, but offshore.

A staunch strong ESE smackdown kaps lekker 3-5' SSW swell Friday and prickly pear shaped seas. Saturday pumping east strong onshores make for smeared sea soup with no discernable groundswell 'cept chopped white horse and hoof melange tho signs of 12 sec groundswell tries to show in arvi beneath the mess to 5'. Sunday onshore drops but morning sickness in moderate continuing onshore ESE despite 3-4' SSW swell. Monday what is this? Wait. There's more. Bad news. More onshore. More mess. Swell weakening anyway. 2 if not 3 feet and mushballs. Tuesday morning sick onshore, flat seas. Sign of a glassoff later. Hahaha. Sound of evil maniacal laughter. Krrrer-ching! Saw VII.

Ugly easterly beasterly pushes Friday to shore. A nasty two day blow kills the weekend. Saturday is equally damaged as strong onshores smear the sea into soup and chopped white horse and hoof melange - signs of 3-4' groundswell but all to waste. But it all changes come Sunday as a proper 4 if not 5' groundswell arrives in light NW or calm, and classic morning. Redemption song. Oh pirates just a rabbi sold eye to the merchant ships. Wooo. The minutes are whatever. Monday the onshore is back but light lump and ok in morning at times, otherwise mildly mushy. Surf 3-4' easing. Tuesday onshore pumps. Sound of evil maniacal laughter. Krrrer-ching! Saw VIII.

Yech. The east howls again Friday 4' sets starting mushy and lame, going blown out poop. A nasty two day blow kills the weekend. Saturday blown out onshores smear the sea into soup and chopped white horse and hoof melange - signs of 3-4' groundswell but all to waste. The onshore keeps on keeping on Sunday tho due to moderate into light lump. Needs offshore tho. A proper 4 if not 5' groundswell arrives and lets hope for wind downgrade further. Arvi could be fun onshore bump surf. Monday dawn patrol clean in 3' lines, swell easing and onshore back, mild at first, fresh in arvi. Tuesday onshore pumps. Sound of evil maniacal laughter. Krrrer-ching! Saw VIX.

Milder but still marginal onshores Friday puffing a steady 10kts, worse by Slumtown. Lumpy 4' lines on points. Saturday the onshores builds, with fresh NE going strong. Smeared and nasty. Goes chopped white horse and hoof melange. There is swell, maybe 3-4' but goes to waste. The onshore keeps on keeping on Sunday with fresh to strong breeze, tho easing in the west. Surf starts to push 4-5' in arvi, but wind is not great. Monday dawn patrol clean in 3' lines, but NE lurks and window may shut quick. Mushy early, blown to bits later. Tuesday and the screaming seas accompany the sound of evil maniacal laughter. Krrrer-ching! Saw VIX.

An unreal morning with offshore whisper and conditions perfect Friday but the surf not co-operating. A few 2-3' bumps on open coast, and onshores win the day light and manky.

Monday fresh to strong NE. Crap. Tuesday screaming seas see the sound of evil maniacal laughter. Krrrer-ching! Saw X.
