The Rock


Big swell running (see previous post) so I was hoping my sheltered local was going to be on. Sadly not so drove steadily eastwards till I found some waves. Looked small so went in on the log. First 30 mins was smallish and occasionally peeling and very consistent…niceeee. I was either paddling or surfing, Just me and a seal underneath the castle walls. Got joined by another and the swell jumped in size, catching me momentarily on the inside. It was then closing out though so caught the set waves for the fun of it and tried to look for a barrel on the inside. End result being getting planted two or three times with no sign of a cover up. Felt quite beaten up the following morning.

Good surf in amazing location.


Car needs a wash and not quite long enough for my longboard.
