Shot up to Oaro, and had an epic time, the swell had vanished almost, but there was 1-2ft rolling through on a sweet little shallow reef, with a bit of fin grinding i managed to score a few rides before the tide went out..
then a little off the logriding.. and onto some aotearoa seafood..
scoured the rock pools and scored some good size paua, and these little beauties, "kina" best eaten straight from the source..
a few other little spots that ooze potential on the right swell..
Here is a good example of a lumpy offshore, spotted on sunday.
Looked like there was a decent wave at brighton on sunday morning.. shame i didnt get out of bed till 11..by the time i reached the pier it had swung onshore.. Suck
Word got around that there was going to be a solid swell on saturday.. so the call was made by andy, and we did a little mission up the coast to somewhat secret spot.. greeted by a ruffled solid 4ft swell and small crowd of surfers?? still there was heaps of waves to be had, heres some digi snaps..
for some reason i have been absolutley useless at taking any decent shots even though christchurch has been pumping with swell the last few weeks.. its insane, this place is surf city!!!
anyway i did manage to take a few shots from my balcony..
