I spoke with the kid taking these pics when I got out of the water on Saturday morning.

I snapped my legrope......had a two leg simultaneous cramp...went over the falls...swam a long long way...got caught inside...got flogged...tied my legrope back together ( making other surfers a little nervous )...then got some cracking barrels.

the next day the swell was gonski...so were my cramps.

oh one other thing...
there was a big fat dead bloated dolphin washed up on the beach with bites out of it.
A couple of humpbacks out the back and huge schools of fish everywhere....so my swim back to my board was a quick one.

many in the water? how was era?

Nice to know you scored Farbz.

A few but there were waves everywhere.

I didn't see era but a mate said it was good until a group of 6 blokes all jumped in and sat on the only take off spot.

Era is good for sick days in non school hols.

nice wave how long of a swim?

Yeah, last Friday and Saturday were great. Surfed Cronulla Point both days. Saturday was cleaner and a tad more solid. Hit the water on Saturday morning at around 5.30am had second reef with just two other guys for two hours - a nice swell like that spreads the crowd around. Point boys finally decided to run the club contest and then the crowd moved in. Did a quick check on Windy Point and it was going off too - as good as I have ever seen it at around the 5 to 6 foot mark - very hollow, very fast.

Have checked Garie a few times lately - mostly on the smaller swells hoping the wave magnet is working - but its been too small or onshore early. It looks like there's a nice bank up near the creek. Also seems to be a lot of sand at Era at the moment which can have a negative inpact on the point.
