Home Perfection

Posted on 18 January 2011

Well what a week for waves.. unfortunately it come with some sad news, with all the horrific floods in queensland.  Over 3/4 of Queensland got flooded. Extremely sad. My thoughts go out to you all.

Only an hour south of this natural disaster the waves were firing. For three days straight I got to finally use my new ski and get out in some solid swell. It only really got to 6 foot but it was a clean ground swell. My local wave was going off, thick pits behind the rock and then running down the point. This is the first time I've also been able to try the Foilz out my local when its big and they didn't disappoint. So fast in the barrell meant I could get even deeper out there. If you're going to a barrelling wave make sure you take a set of Foilz with you.  You will be surprised the difference they make.

I've also been waiting to get the right swell for Kirra, the perfect testing ground for the Foilz. It finally started to work in this swell, my mate was dropping me off at big groyne and I was surfing down to North Kirra then jumping on the ski and getting a lift back out, no paddling was awesome...

But the best part was how crazy the Foilz were working out there.  I kinda expected them to perform in these conditions and they really did.  I honestly suggest anyone living or going to places like this to just try a set.  You won't turn back after using them in the tube..

We also had a teams event (Jim Beam Surftag) on the weekend while the swell was around.... they ran it at Greenmount. Such a fun comp with all the boys turning up. We ended up having a massive day of surfing and came out on top so we're off to the nationals in Sydney next month, should be fun..

Looks like we have a couple of cyclones lining up as well so hopefully to don't add to the current disaster but deliver some epic waves, fingers crossed...

stay posted for the next swell.. yew Corey
