I'm keeping my eye on my local beachie for the right conditions.
I wonder if a Tutu will work?
I'll look pretty good dancing up and down the beach jumping in the air waiting to be lifted by the waves.
Do you think it would work better if I reduce my weight by not wearing anything other than the tutu?
Can anyone define "big swell" please?? If I'm looking for head height waves or over, what kind of numbers am I looking for in the graphs?? Thanks for all the help so far.
Ah 'missie , you're a Pup heartbreaker
Big Swell = Big Waves (GOOD)
Reading Graphs = Frustration.(can be better to listen to radio station surf report or better a mate already out there to text you that it's sweet)
Anywhere from Secrets to Madora on about a 2meter swell, look for where wave lines on sand are furtherest towards dunes and hang around for sets. Be sure to follow safe landing proceders while up there.![]()
Very interesting, not sure I'd want to try jumping over a head high wave breaking in a couple of centimetres of water, could get very uncomfortable, especially in a skirt!
A lot of us have launched in shorebreaks, not that I've ever done it in more than waist high, but can't say I've noticed any updraft when the wave breaks.
You'd think this would be noticeable on the rig.
Does wind direction/strength have any bearing?
Off shore certainly creates an updraft on unbroken waves, but can't see the wave breaking increasing that???
Just go vist any metro overcrowded beach break. full of pros . "moses rock" take your camera down there thats were you want to be in big swell !
So the twirler is supported by air pressure, applied to the skirt?
What stops the skirt from, well, you know, being blown up around her head?
I just can't see how any meaningful force could be applied to a skirt without it collapsing upwards.
But I reserve the right to inspect any videos closely

For the record they are called Shories or 'Shore Breaks' here in Aus, not "Dumpers", Dumpers are wayward bogans who dont know what civilisation is (as in, they dump their garbage anywhere), or it could mean a big Poo. (that stupid cu^t from Bar beach houso took a big dump on Cliff steps)
Have we had any progress on this subject Missellie?
