Rain, Rock lice and Rocky Detours.....oh and Waves

FINALLY got some decent waves today! The NW was trickelling through, the swell was pulsing and oh boy the reef was definitely cranking! After a 5am start and almost 2 hours of driving, we were greeted by spitting barrels and warm water. We didnt hesitate to get in there and as the morning progressd things couldnt have been more perfect. 4 friends sharing a lonely reef that was defintely doing its part to make us happy. The kelp beds got slightly annoying however this didnt deter us one bit, except for those awkward moments when it rubs up against your upper thigh :/ Thats just slightly creepy....Heres a few of the fruits we harvested in images for you to drool over....



Above: What felt like the great trek due to nobody listening to my directions and taking the "safer" road route....always fun finding new ways to rediscover a spot...

Above: We were eventually greeted by this sight with only ourselves and a couple of rock lice in the vicinity to appreciate it...









Above: Our view while getting changed....lets just say we were excited on the inside. Very excited...

Overall was definitely worth the mission to finally get decent waves. Dry spell in Cape Town recently was starting to take its toll. Make sure you watch this space for more to come, summer is on its way and Iv got a feeling we gona get some good old West Coast real soon! Yewwwww
