If you're a surfer in Adelaide you'd better have a good seat of wheels.

When an email titled 'Mr Mysto' turned up in my inbox this week I was pretty damn excited.

The barrel and the reo - the two most exhilarating moves a surfer can do.

The east coast is a versatile stretch of coastline. Southerly is the predominant swell direction yet when the lines swing to the east and north the options stay wide open.

Since the New Year the Sunshine Coast has been copping a bit of swell. Nothing sizey mind you, but 2-4 feet of tradewind swell has kept everyone busy.
