Just after the big "blow" most of the metro beaches finally got some banks after a long dismal summer

Nice one Micko.

If your up for a wave on Saturday there are a few of us heading to bombing range, maybe catch you there.

cheers

Lefties will be a better option for you guys as it looks like a bit of south in the easterly. Bombing Range will be sideshore, tide looks good for Lefties too. I'm working saturday but monday looks good. 3m+ and e-ne.

Gday gents, pretty interested in what has developed from here regarding WA kneeboarders. I live in Perth and have been a kneeboarder since about '86 and love it, I would be very interested in getting involved in the club / group / gatherings that come from this forum.

Check this out on swellnet. Now it's just a matter of where to go. Wind looks to be northerly from Perth south from Monday thru Thursday

Lancelin is NE Monday but 3.5m is way too big for Bombing Range. Maybe Backbeach??
Hole in the Wall will look like Backdoor without an exit. South Passage will close out and too much north in it for Lefties.
3.5m is maxing at Spot but Nails might be on. Dewars should be ALLTIME.
If we get more east Surfbeach is where I'm gonna be.
Party at Griz's

Down south was still my favorite, especially at this place....need a good fwd, but Eric told me the walk in from Sugarloaf isnt too bad

gets crowded, but this is where i met alot of local kneelos.

Waka had a few good ones 3 weeks back at Ellensbrook and Borenup, looked at bears, wasnt quite doing it, being really full wasnt quite right (and a crowd).Heading down next week end to sort out some things on the house build but looks like the weathers up to sh#*t

fingers crossed.

Had a good session behind Eddie Island today, big swell but messy. Heaps of dolphins swimming around us which was cool especially after I worked out what they were!!

So who scored waves over the last couple of days?? Monday was NW early locally and didn't have time to hit Lano's. Got skunked this morning too as I was tied up till about 1pm. Rest of the week looks likes shite. Rotto woulda been soooooo good today, perfect Bullets day.

Hey Austo, Spalmz, Can you guys PM me your contact details and I'll add you to the list of memebers.

Yeah I scored bombing range on Saturday with Dean and Michael. Perfect conditions and low crowd factor.... joy. Went out yesterday but it was a bit munted in the metro area. Standups were confused with 3 kneelos in the water..

So just to keep everyone updated. The club is registered with Dept of Sport and Rec and I'm just wading through the other paperwork, but I reckon we can keep it pretty simple.

SurfingWA need to know the members list for insurance purposes for those competing. So I've decided to wait till the end of the month to get everyones names together who want to join and compete before finalising the list. So if your not on the list yet let me know and if you know any others interested let me have there contact details.

Cheers
