Spot "X"....
I just finished my last People to People tour for 2007 and thought I was in desperate need of abit of "ME" time to unwind.After hours of searching through the gigabytes of information on the net and then with my newly obtained knowledge of "The East Coast will be pumping..........."
I headed off to bed.
After the 0810 George FM surf report (good on ya Luke) http://www.georgefm.co.nz/ which went into great detail of the conditions, But I only heard....Clean glassy,3-4 ft northeast,offshore, Pumping Waves, 8/10..... I was off!!
An hour and ahalf drive later......with only about a dozen crew out......I was pretty happy with my decision.
As I was "squeezing" into my brand new 4x3 wetsuit my old mate Peter (ex airforce) pulled up and immediately went about jumping up & down and pretty much "frothing" like a "grommie" yelling & screaming,he stripped,changed and was off (still yelling)
By the way the new wetsuit was AWESOME 1hr.45 minutes later in water temp of 16c and I was still toastie.
Kinda a bad thing really for the whanau as now the Winter chill won’t put me off going out.

I searched your site on the google using keywords of "Paora blog surf" and your site came first on the seaching result page...
It looks awsome waves...I guess we get together and taste some of the east coast waves in the near future.
Your investment for 4x3 suits is very sensible i'd say.... however your statement of "it won't put me off going out on the winter days" is incorrect.
you have been out no matter what... anyway.
