Waves on the way

Hi there, it has been a bit smaller than expected the last few days, never really getting above head high at the Peak, and a bit bigger at Tullan. Those SW swells just miss us by a bit sometimes. Some reports of heavy waves being surfed down in Clare by Fergal Smith and others. Not for the average surfer those heavy slabs dish up some heavy beatings. Fair play for taking them on. These guys are really pushing Irish surfing to the next level. You can see a clip of the type of waves at this link The DVD is called Relentless and maybe available again with future issues of Carve magazine.

Fins magazine has been published for the last time. The most recent issue had loads of Bundoran stuff and was all surfing and nothing else. On the cover is Glen Hall who is Aussie/Irish and doing well on the WQS under an Irish passport. Could this guy be the first Irish person on the WCT? Keep an eye on him. Glen is currently ranked number 46 on the WQS.

There is a new Irish surf and weather forecasting site online called AskMoby. Click here to try it out. You can get forecasts sent to your mobile.

There is also a new surf travel website set up by Irish surfers. Although still in its infancy these guys have a lot of surf travel experience and know what they are talking about. Click here.
