Distance Covered:

Some cracking waves to start of for me. Caught a few nice 2 footers attemptin to carve getting some really good rides. Winds picked up gradually throughout the session and waves were increasing all the time.
Went out the back with the big boys and the size of the waves was getting stupid. Was setting myself up on a few of the big ones coming through. Just as the wave was about to break; I wisely chickened out being 6 foot above the flat water below.
Attempted to catch one of the smaller waves coming through but that was too much for me and got chucked into the washing machine. Came out alive and went back to the beginner section near the shoreline. The swell was so strong and once you were chest height it was impossible to get back out again so just catched a few of the waves in on the white water. Good session to start of with but you needed to be good to cope with the big waves at the end
