Here at Swellnet we've copped a few fruity emails over the lack of South Oz content we've run lately - you're a passionate and parochial mob, you Southerners. But the truth is we haven't run much from the garden state (or is it the 'smart state', I can never remember). In our defence South Oz - especially the Fleurieu Peninsula - has hit a barren patch and good surf shots haven't been forthcoming. For much of the winter the Southern Ocean storm track has been aimed up toward WA leaving parts of SA and Vicco high and dry.
