Finally got to surf Bells (big Bells😜) this morning for the first time. It’s been something I’d been wanting to do for years. There were still a few stray 8ft+ sets leftover from Sundays huge swell to keep the adrenaline pumping. I hadn’t surfed for over 6 weeks due to our Tasmanian caravanning sojourn, so I was stoked to get two really good waves out there…before my lack of fitness triumphed 😒 As a bonus, there was the good vibe in the uncrowded lineup, and most guys were on guns or step-ups. Local shaper Matt Shay @palehorsesurfboards was ripping on his single fin mal. The annual Rip Curl Easter Pro starts on 18 April and most of the contest infrastructure is in place. Here’s some random pics from the Nikon and iPhone… . . . . #marksuttonphoto #adventurebeforedementia #driftingaroundaustralia #retiredanddangerous #bellsbeach#hellsbells#bigsurf#nikonz7ii#iphone14 @palehorsesurfboards @driftingaroundaustralia@deanorip1@brandonrooneyphoto@lwbombay
She's an open water line up , ol fashioned paddle fest. We were at Lorne over the weekend. The point was a couple of foot. Hopefully you'll get to surf it. Safe travel 🙏
