Gnaraloo 2003 was again epic. Read the typical conversation heard shortly after getting back to
chilly Perth...
You: So, you just got back from Gnaraloo, how was it?
| Me: Yep farkin sick mate, farkin sick
| You: Really? When did you go?
| Me: I was there from Sunday the 10th of August to Sunday the 16th
| You: Cool...and the waves?
| Me: Yea it was stormy as hell for the first couple of days as a massive swell thumped the coast. Then it cleared up and it was crazy, really heavy.
| You: Aww I dunno, you and me might have different ideas about what to call heavy
| Me: I see - check the sequence to the right, or better yet, i have a video of the same wave here
| You: (after viewing the pictures and seeing the video) Fark thats crazy! Did you get any waves??
| Me: No way, I tried to paddle out and got blasted into the lagoon, it took me over 20minutes just to get in, the current was really bad. Shortly after I got in, a set that was atleast 12ft+ broke halfway between bombie and tombstones. I was glad to be in the carpark at that time
| You: Shiat! So what was it like the rest of the time?
| Me: After that it dropped off, but still stayed around the 3-6ft mark for the remainder of the trip. A couple of the days were all day offshores
| You: Oh right on, got any more photos of that ?
Me: Yerp click here
You: Excrement. What did you use to take photos?
| Me: I used a video camera, and then pulled the stills from the footage. Some of the other photos were taken with a regular camera...
| You: Yea like the ones without that munted blue-ish colour. What happened there?
| Me: Well apparently as I was filming I was messing with the light settings on the camera, and so it came out all weird. Typical ay...
| You: You idiot !
| Me: Hey... f--k you buddy...
