With the Cape Sorell buoy rising late Saturday the signs were there for a good Sunday on the Victorian coast. There were no disappointments as the Surf Coast was 4-5 feet at first light and more like 6-8 at midday.

Craig Goode filmed the mid-afternoon session at Winkipop when the swell was at it's biggest, however the wind switching to the south-west took some of the gloss off it.

Certainly got big quick.
The wind went back around a bit later I heard.

Love that wave, never that big but big enough to have lots of pleasure and pain

not sure that's a twin, but just like light blue board at 2.00, they pace the wave very well.
