Crescent Head.

So the family's going up to Crescent Head on Friday to hopefully catch some good waves and relax. It will be good practise for March when the Crescent nationals will be held. We're staying there for eight days or so. Should be good.

HOLIDAYS!!!

Just got on holidays and it's great. I've been surfing every day on my new log. I reckon I've got the hang of it now. Hopefully there will be some alright waves over the next week. My board has had some okay waves but nothing brilliant.

Merry Christmas everybody

NOTE


Surfed my new board at Boings this morning, and I absolutely loved it. It pivots off the tail really well, it's an unbelievable nose rider and the board rides so smooth. It also looks sick on the wave.

I've been surfing Possos a lot this week. It's been pretty good too. The usual crew have been out and sharing the waves. A guy from a new mag called Foam Magazine was out taking some photos of Sasha, there going to be doing an article of her in the magazine. Here's a few photos he took of me and dad.

They're trying that new format at SOUL tomorrow. I don't know if I'll compete or not. It's supposed to be going SW around noon tomorrow also. Dad and I are going for a surf in the morning then we'll see what happens.

I went to see the board that Jordan and Sean are making for me at NOTE Surfboards today. It looks sweet. Can't wait until it's ready. Nice guys, stoked to be riding their boards.

Posca markers.

Today i picked a couple of Posca markers to do some cool art on my surfboards. I'm starting off by practising on my old and broken boards. They're really thick and are water resistant. The only down side to them is the are quite pricey. There are 3 sizes. The small ones are $4.80, the medium ones are $5.60 and the big ones are $7.20. I got the medium ones, blue and red. When i get better at my art I'll do it on my boards i actually ride.
Possos is looking the goods from Monday to Thursday. NW winds and ranging from 2 to 4 foot. might see you there. in the mornings only though as i have school.

Here's a couple photos Dad took of me at the Grove the other day


The Wahu shortboard comp.

I competed in the Wahu short board comp today. I had to surf a heat, a semi then a final. I came 2ND in my heat, 2ND in my semi then i finished off with a 4Th out of 5 in my final. The surf was clean but unbelievably small. I rode my Dad's thick 6,1 mod squad. It helped me a bit in the small conditions. It was a really fun day.

Soul comp

The comp was held at Boings this week. It was small which is ideal for me. There was some nice clean waves coming through early in the morning but then the wind started to chop it up,the low tide wasn't helping either. Once again i had a pretty full day entering the trad, juniors and open A.I bombed out in my open heat and the others were both straight finals. I won the trad and juniors which i was pretty stoked about. We then finished the day with a nice presentation with a silent auction. Myles and i were battling for the same tee shirt and i won at $40.10 as he went home. This was the last comp of the year, although we are having a comp to try out something new. The points will not go towards the end of year score though.

Will the comp be on????

Doesn't look like there is going to be a comp on the weekend.The swell is extremely small. I don't know if that's good for me or not. I guess we will see at the end of year presentation.

Happy Birthday to my dad, Lee Considine

My dad turned 48 today. He got the day off work too because of Melbourne Cup. We had a surf at possoes this morning too. It was Really fun. Only 2 and a half foot but had a nice shape on them. Us loggers don't need big waves anyway.
I'm gonna be gettin on Jordan Noble's boards soon. Thanks jordan, i'm STOKED......
I just spent a week in NSW at the HPC camp. Really great experience. There were some great Juniors up there. They taught me how to do HP stuff, I'm still working it out but it's still all about loggin for me.
Pictures to follow.

No surf!!!!

It's a bad week for the surf, there is going to be southerly winds everyday up until Saturday. Lorne won't be clean because of the south east. But i guess this is what happens at this time of the year.

Lorne fun.




Saturday morning, Lorne was around 2 ft and some fun.The east wind was getting to it a but the wave faces kept clean. There were about 50 paddle boarders out,boards were flying everywhere. i was having some fun on a little left to the left of the club. The point wasn't working because of the high tide, I don't know if it worked later on. Hopefully the surf will turn on tomorrow,it's the last day of school holidays.They go too quickly.
Saturday morning, windy, Lorne looking kinda clean, road trip!
