Central
Australia, NSW
The central coast has everything from weak beach breaks, to world class reef breaks. The locals are heavy, so just respect them... If you give the locals respect, its cruisy... Packed from november to March. BW
Seasonal swell & wind variations:
Most of the Gnarly Reefs thrive on South East swells, but Many spots go off with the summer nor easters, Fairly varying swell.

why?? - Why the fuk do people put up full descriptions of the waves that we like to have to our selves.... you are all a bunch of kooks... i know i would rather surf with 2 mates of people i see familiar than a bunch of blow ins that are only there because of losers posting info on the net...
cheers for fukking things up...

Crowds!! - Stop your whinging about crowds will ya! U think you got it bad try living on the goldy, YOU DON"T OWN THE WAVES JUST COZ YOU HAPPEN TO LIVE THERE!!
Nothing s%its me more when travelling to a new spot and encountering FIGJAM locals who think there better than everyone else purely based on where they happen to reside than on actual surfing talent!
