The longest period that I have gone without a surf this year finally came to an end yesterday in the form of a little windy session on the pushing high tide which actually proved to be a lot more fun than it looked (I think thats just the desperation talking to be honest) The fact still remains that you just can’t look at it for too long on the south coast in summer or you’ll talk yourself out of it ! But no complaints…. there was a few bashable ones and fun was had by all ! Thank god for the fish !
Don’t ask why but I always feel a bit ‘guilty’ about looking forward to the end of summer, it just doesn’t feel right ….but this year is different ! I will happily trade the shorter nights, colder water and worsening weather for some consistant surf. As I write my eyes are fixed firmly on the end of week forecast. Perhaps our patience is about to be rewarded ? Early signs are showing the mother of a low pressure heading straight for us. And I guess this is why I’m kinda happy to wave bye bye to summer this year ! Roll on Autumn ! More of these please !
