Have to agree with Hooper on that. Sept through to Dec are our worst surfing months. If you do go to Gisborne (which would be a good bet ) we could probably arrange for a few of us to meet up over there. Not sure what happens down Taranaki way at that time of the year but probably mostly onshores.

Mid January through to March/April (cyclone season) can be pretty good if we get the cyclones like we are at present.
