The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get into it.
We’ve got a solid run of surf lined up over the next couple of weeks, but it’s not all perfect. The first couple of days are a bit of a mixed bag, but the quality really ramps up, especially for the dawn patrol sessions. The real standout is going to be the weekend of the 2nd and 3rd of August, with some truly glassy conditions. Later on, we see some serious size, but the wind gets tricky.
The only spot on the radar is Bondo Kodi, a point break that needs a solid SW swell to light up. This place is fairly consistent and for the advanced crew only, so don’t bring the soft-top. It can get a bit of a crowd, but that’s the price of a good wave. The water temp is sitting right around 79°, which is pretty much what you’d expect for this time of year, so no surprises there.
We kick off on Friday afternoon, July 31st, with a 4ft SW swell showing a very long period of 17 seconds. The wind is cross/off from the SSE, which puts a bit of a bump on it. The combined energy is moderate at 1160, and the call is marginal. It’s a bit soft and messy, so not the best way to start.
Saturday morning, August 1st, is a different story. The swell bumps up to 4ft from the SSW, still a very long 16 seconds, and the wind drops to nothing. We’re talking glassy conditions. The energy is solid at 1303. This is a proper window for the experienced surfer. The afternoon holds similar promise with a 5ft SW swell and a light offshore breeze from the SE, keeping it clean and glassy. Energy is up to 1321.
Sunday, August 2nd, is the other big standout. Another morning with zero wind, just dead calm and glassy. The swell is a clean 6ft from the SW with a 16-second period, and the energy is pumping at 1674. This is the best of the best for the early session. The afternoon gets a bit cross/off, but it’s still a solid 6ft if you’re desperate.
Monday, August 3rd, keeps the good times rolling. Morning sees a 6ft SSW swell, 15-second period, and a clean cross-off breeze from the east. The energy is 1234. It’s excellent for the experienced. The next few mornings, like Tuesday the 4th and Wednesday the 5th, follow the same pattern: glassy dawn patrols with 5ft SW swell, though the period drops to 14 seconds on Tuesday. Energy is around 1049-1202. The afternoons get a bit cross-on and choppy, so be an early bird.
The second week kicks off with a big jump in size. Thursday the 6th of August sees 7ft SSW swell, and it stays solid through the weekend. The problem is the wind. It’s mostly cross or cross-on from the SSE and SE, putting a chop on the face. The energy is cranked up, hitting 2998 on Thursday morning and climbing to over 3500 by Friday the 7th. At 8ft, this is expert territory. The conditions are marginal, but the power is there for those who can handle it.
The real wild card comes on Tuesday, August 11th. The swell jumps to a massive 10ft from the SSW with an 18-second period, and the energy is a staggering 6979. The wind is light and offshore from the WSW in the morning. This is a very long period groundswell, and on a point break like Bondo Kodi, that’s a dream scenario. The waves will be big, powerful, and lined up. It’s a solid 6 out of 10 internally, but with that kind of size, it’s strictly for the experts. The afternoon gets a bit cross-on, but the morning is the one to chase.
The run continues with 8ft to 10ft swells through to the 15th of August, all with that very long period. The wind is a mixed bag of offshore and cross-onshore, so you’ll need to pick your windows. The 15th of August morning looks promising again with a 10ft SW swell and light cross-on wind, but the energy is still massive at 5314. It’s a powerful end to the forecast period.
This is Rusty, signing off.
