Plenty of swell at Noosa but the westerly was too strong from what I saw

i thought this was going to be an early morning session with sunshine, the kneelo at maroubra.

OK.

I just rewatched it under the assumption that it was a pisstake and I enjoyed it.

Great waves, like a fun day at a South west beachie.

That barrel at minute thirty was sick.

Backlit pits , good surfers and the symphonic implication that Strider, Legolas and Gandalf were about to hit the lineup.....nice.

Not trying to sound like a wanker but there's a beachie an hour from my joint that looks like that pretty much everytime it's 6ft and offshore..

Yep I know, I sound like a wanker

Heaps of others on the sunny coast like that too, it's just that it's six foot and offshore only about once every three years.

The clip is by the same filmmaker who made the surf film Fantasea in the late 70’s. That's some good longevity in the business.

Agreed mate, too much slo-mo is generally excruciating.
Apart from that, it had everything going for it.

Nice waves, quite user friendly. The music sounded like some big screen epic blockbuster! Real time edit would only be 30 seconds and quite normal without the tunes.
