After a day of rest Chris convinces me to make another early start in search of waves on saturday morning. We pick up another ex-pat surfer Ben who I enjoyed many waves with back in the UK and set of on a wave safari.
Ben, Chris and I check out a number of different breaks that I haven’t seen before but decide to opt for the waves at Dee Why. You can see all three of us in the line up here.
I had actually surfed here before, but staggeringly forgot to report that I had visited this break back in July. Only discovering that when I was about to report on returning there. It must have got lost in a previous backlog, so I am hoping there are not any more.
The surf is a bit all over the place but certainly the best we saw along the coast.
It doesn’t take me long until I have dropped into a few, and all the time in the water am enjoying the banter between Chris and Ben.
The waves are about head high and there are loads of people in the water, but I certainly manage to get my share of waves while we are here, including one fantastic right which I manage to slalom my way to the shore picking a workable line through the surfer soup.
We are in the water for a few hours and having loads of fun, but as ever fatigue or another appointment means we have to get out.
Chris has a visit scheduled with the tax man here in Dee Why so we get out and enjoy a coffee and a bite to eat whilst enjoying the Australian wildlife walking along the sea front.
I already knew it but this session confirms that you cant beat surfing with your friends.
My smile says why.
