Todays weather is just amazing.

Its so cold you can see your breath,

but warm enough under the sun to walk around without a shirt.

The water is really calm with a slight breeze.

It is truly a day to relax.

So here are todays pics.

Also a medium swell is hitting this friday

and I shall have a friend to take some pics for me

might even have some pics of me trying to teach her.

Anyway enjoy guys.

Also should I change this blog about my life rather than just surfing.

Let me know in the comments below.

Im back.

2011-07-16T16:03:00.000-07:00

It's a dope place to work, and the workmates seem really cool.

I also changed the outlay and look of the blog.

Today I'm doing a giant post for you guys.

I've included the pics I'd promised from my friends.

Its not completely finished so I just took pics of the main interesting rooms

that were finished, but they will be at the bottom of todays post.

Now back on track, A swell is hitting New Zealands eastcoast

over the next couple of days.

Todays morning surf wasn't great but was surfable.

Unfortunately my battery in my cellphone died so I could record this afternoons

surfing session, but I recorded this mornings session.

Here's todays pics.

Great conditions with a offshore wind and the sun shining.

Here you can see the sets slowly building up.

I just loved this picture and just felt I had to share it with you guys.

Here's todays morning video. Excuse the horrible video editing.

But enjoy anyway.

If you guys want to know the song it is:

'Sink' by 'Against me' (acoustic version)

As I promised here are the pics mentioned at the top of this post.

The cool modern kitchen.

WoW on the 1080hd Projector.

And the most important game CS:S

Hope you guys enjoy todays post.

Day Five.

2011-05-05T15:41:00.000-07:00

Today hasn't been looking too promising.

Woke up with dark clouds above threatening rain.

Surf was messy, wind was picking up as an offshore wind.

I had decided today's not going to be a surf day.

I guess my week on end for surfing might be coming to its end.

So I decided to snooze in, but a hour or so later I was woken up by

the sun pouring in my room.

Which is always welcome in my books.

Well here you can see the surf is pretty flat. But its been picking up maybe

I'll be able to hit some surf later on today.

Who knows because here in New Zealand on the east coast.

The surf can be unpredictable.

Here in this pic you can see the ocean comes all the way in at high tide.

Well I hope you guys enjoy today's post.

I'm going to one of my mates houses later tonight.

And well he just has an awesome house.

I will post some pics of it if I remember.

Enjoy.

Day four morning.

2011-05-04T15:11:00.000-07:00

As always I get this urge to wake up.

But when I woke up there was fog and couldn't see anything from my room

so decided to try snooze, I couldn't for some reason,

but I awoke to find this.

An amazing set just taken here.

And you can see the fog in the distance that I was talking about.

A few of you guys wanted to see some videos.

Well sorry guys Ive only got my phone to record.

I know that its not great but it does so off the sets.

Unfortunately the battery died really early on during my session.

So you don't see me catch any waves.

But enjoy anyway.

Now I want to celebrate for over 2000 views.
And also my 100 followers.
I can't believe how fast this blog is growing.
So I would like to thank all of you.
So heres a pic of my beautiful dog Lucky chilling on my surfboard.

Enjoy guys.

Great conditions.

2011-05-03T13:45:00.000-07:00

For some reason this morning I woke up earlier than I would usually.
I had this urge to look out my window.

Quite happy I did to find this.

Sun, clean sets and high tide.

And also not a jellyfish in sight.

^This is a view from my lounge. Good shot to show off the sets.

^And whats my blog without a picture of some form of coffee.

^View from my kitchen. Suns still rising, and so are the sets.

Hope you guys are enjoying my blog.

Went out to find jelly fish.

2011-05-02T21:07:00.000-07:00

I went out with a mate, all wet suited up

to go for a afternoon surf,

but when entering the water saw some jellyfish,

we decided that we would walk down the each a bit to where

we went this morning

but to find dozens of washed up jellyfish.

Supposed 20 mins from where I am there has been

tornados ripping up houses and even some of the beaches.

I guess that's how this little sucker got here.

Went out earlier this morning,
was a early start but was so worth it.

The surf was in sets and had even a few 6 foot waves out there.

I know you cant see much the size of the waves in this pic.

But I'm hoping to get some footage of me surfing,

and eventually a waterproof camera for some first person footage.

Here's some of today's pics.

And first pic was my breakfast. =P

I know shes not much, but she does the job and I love her.

Thanks for the interest guys.

I will try do another post later this afternoon.

Enjoy.

I went out earlier today with a friend that was over,

he was kind enough to help take a pic for this blog.

Here is a pic of me looking out for where the waves were breaking.

I know it looks like there is no surf but I was riding some 5 foot waves out

there having the time of my life.

I freezing my arse off, but stayed out there more than a hour.

Now time to grab a well earned bite.

Todays conditions.

2011-05-01T14:43:00.000-07:00

So this is what the the surf looks like today.
I live on the east coast for some of you who don't know that.

And there is a huge easterly so waves aren't staying up long at all today.
But I will probably head out a little later today if it clears up a bit.
I know it looks like there are no waves,
but this is a elevated shot.
The waves in this picture, towards the the middle back are around 5foot.

Reply to all the comment.

Went surfing out today. The water has been really messy, a lot of white wash. But going out where its breaking I'm catching about 5 foot waves. And where the current is the waves last about 12-15 seconds before they start to break,leaving me with some good surf time. I will post a pic of the surf conditions tomorrow morning when I go out.

Waters been cold, but its worth it.

About me.

2011-04-30T23:27:00.000-07:00

So I live in Orewa beachfront, Auckland, which is in New Zealand.

I've lived here my whole life. I was born and raised in Orewa and the North Shore's Takapuna.

I'm constantly been looking out my sliding door every morning.

Thinking there is surf yet I'm not out there.

So I have recently picked up surfing.

I will post my progress and any tips I pick up along my way.

Here is a few pics of what my beach looks like

I know its beautiful.
I'm glad I can share it with you.

Me just starting out.

2011-04-29T01:07:00.001-07:00

Me just starting out. Give me some advice what, you, the viewer would like to see.
