Know there are a few surfers on here. Sounds like the Bells contest (live from about 10pm on the world surf league facebook / website) should have some pretty solid waves the next couple of days.

Bells was the venue for the final scenes in point break, hence the title, for the non-surf-savvy.

I’ve not surfed much the last few years, and totally lost interest in watching contests when one manouver waves started to be scored highly, but I’m pretty excited to watch this later (or more likely on replay as its AUS time).

Anyone else?

No ones been out, no ones going out…

Maybe you’re just not doing it right.

Let’s just hope it’s not a 50 year long Brazilian storm…

Theres cliffs on both sides, i’m not gonna paddle to New Zealand….

And it wasn’t actually filmed at bells beach.

Ah really? Always thought it was, can’t really remember the film.

Either way if its 8ft bells it’s going to be epic. Instagram has lots of big boards being posted. Fingers crossed.

Yeah Bells is a lot more open than the bay at the end of Point Break*. Think it’s filmed in the US so not even Aus!!

Hance the really shite Aussie accent, “ya lid im gid awaaaaay”…

*I bloody love Point Break.

It’s on, women up at the moment. Looking a bit blustery!

Cross-shore 6 foot Bells.. not really epic 50 year conditions.
Looks tricky to find a good one.

Point Break is the worst so-called surfing movie of all time

@ twodogs – until “Point Break 2015” 😉

point break is brilliant.

That’s because it’s not a surf film. It’s a Hollywood blockbuster with some surfing in.

I mean the first sequence with them watching Bodhi surf, four completely different waves in about 30s from memory.

day 4 highlights looked pretty brutal conditions.

Yeah watch a bit in the middle of the night, lots of broken boards and ripped out leash plugs. Didn’t seem that much bigger than I rembver seeing in previous years, maybe tonigh if the wind is better and a bit less warp in the ocen they might stand up more. crazy how short boards they were talking about riding.

i didn’t see in the highlights but were they shuttling them to the lineup with skis?

Yeah. But then they were sitting on the inside to get ones with half reasonable shape and wearing 8ft mushburgers on the head. After one wipeout Italo Ferrera got washed all the way into the winkipop lineup!

Painting pictures with words! I have no idea what any of that means, except for someone getting wiped out.
