A Day To Remember.

Thursday the 16th of September... A day to remember.

After having a hell time out the infamous Bells Beach Bowl in the morning, Todd Rosewall and myself got together a crew of frothing groms and decided to swing them into the biggest conditions the Surfcoast has seen in a while. The team was myself, Todd Rosewall, Mitch Baker, Boris Cole, Hazza Mann and Shyama Buttonshaw. Harry "So tall if he fell over he would land in Lorne" Lee took shit shot on departure.

The Cape Sorell Buoy, located off Tasmania, recorded its biggest ever real wave reading at 11am on this fateful day, the one wave was over 18metres high.... The general rule is that it takes 6 hours for the swell hitting Cape Sorell to get to our hometown, so at 5pm we hit it.

2 Tow Teams at Winki. Absolutely no one at Bells.

Upon return to the Fisho's boatramp, the tow boys declared "No one was game enough to paddle..."

Oh how wrong they were.

We parked at Bells, got changed and piled into AJ Lynch's van cheat our way around to Southside for the only ocean access point available.

We had to do the full on paddle from Jarosite Reef around to Bells, much to the excitement of the 10000000 carpark surfers lining the cliffs.

We all got some huge ones and managed to make it in safely just before dark.

Holy shit, it is fair to say that we all love life right now.....
