Filmmaker Tim Bonython trains his lens at one Sydney's heaviest ledges during a recent south swell. There's snapped boards, blown takeoffs and failed rock jumps - it's carnage a'plenty.

LMAO. Utter chaos. Well done, lads. Awesome to watch them all having a dig. Some serious and beautiful slabs.

"Whose wave?" "Yours ..." lol

@yocal these spots haven't been secret for awhile. Hell, even I know about it and that's saying something. It's one of those places where the reef and waves sort out the lineup - as you can see in the clip haha That said, I guess it always helps for a spot to not be profiled.

ps. is that you in your profile pic? You were in the movie Finding Nemo, right? You had some good lines in that ... ;-)

And we are still waiting for the long anticipated video submission from GONAD_MAN of him making every drop on an overhead double sucking slab.

Stu, that was classic but chapter 36 and beyond is missing. Will it be coming along soon? You left me hanging.
