Weeks of Offshores
Hey guys it looks like we are into a winter weather cycle at last. The water is cold and rain is falling, but the bright side to it all is the winds are easterly which means swell on the east and offshores on the west. the west coast is known for being blown out and onshore so to have a 4th weekend of offshore waves is outstanding.
The weather wasn't summer but the bars were groomed nicely. All up and down the coast their have been stories of epic surfs. I myself have managed to get in a good 8 hours of surfing over the weekend. The thing you notice when you shot photos in winter, is the quickness of how people get tired and stiff in the water.
Being in Auckland means we should never complain about the cold remember the south island crew surf through rain hail and snow and the videos I have seen from a guy called Jono (surfthesouth) shows how well the southerners surf in very cold conditions. I am stoked that with winter only the committed reap the rewards.
