I heart WOTD
Incredible eh!
Yes, ripper.
Great caption. One of your best.
Cheers. Fifteen years and I can't believe I hadn't thought of it before.
Reminds me of the projectile vomiting I had with dengue fever.
Felt like it had jet propulsion.
Zero credentials to display, but my critique of today’s photo is that it has excellent lighting!

Incredible lighting and imagery the last two days as well. Cracker shots!
Is this the best wave ever captured on the Sunshine Coast?
It like a photo of a unicorn
thought old-mate was in the buff when I first looked at it bleary-eyed.

The Harry Bryant footage of him surfing big lefts out the back of sunshine beach on a 7’0 is still burnt into my pea-brain.
Would that be a once yearly occurrence?

That June 2016 swell really was "As Good As It Gets". Hasn't happened since. Close, but not that. Every 5-10 years.

Be nice if it was more often!!
I remember that clip, insane!
Had to work up around the sunny coast around 03 came back from work one day right outside the window was amazing waves.
Lasted just that day .
Back to work the next morning ........
Great waves, you just have to share them with everyone from Brisbane.
It's a bit like a surf desert though .. Plenty of flater days ...
As a surfer, it must be one of the biggest cocktease coasts, insofar that there's ~100km of surfable coastline with so much potential, and there's usually something to ride, but it hardly ever gets good.

Yeah it can be painful, but like you mention excluding the last 3 months before we started to get some swell, there is usually a surfable grovel somewhere.
A lot of good surfers from area, Kong, Parko, Wilson, Byrant Goodall etc etc.
You just need to travel to get juice.

This wave no longer...
Another once in a blue moon occurrence.
I could see this wave from where i lived for a year or two and surfed it whenever it was surf able trying to find a nugget.
I never got it this good though and it was always a real hard wave to work out and surf as was so shifty it was so much harder to surf than the Goldie points.
Shame it's gone.
^ 23:55 mark. Was a fun day. Jack certainly disguised the crowd.
The wave of the day does it for me big time. Nice work Steen Barnes , Shaun Anderson and Swellnet.
In one photo you've encompassed everything nice about surfing. If I was a wanker I'd say that it was perfect except for the fact he is in a wetsuit. Which it is , it's perfect .....except for the fact he's in a wetsuit.
