While a classic winter south swell hit Tahiti, a rare unseasonal east swell has been gracing the Queensland and northern NSW points. The Superbank has been lining up better than it has in six months, while Kirra has been breaking better than it has in - what? - years. The day after the Quik Pro 2013 was probably the last time it was this good.

Phil Gallagher is the head honcho at le Boogie magazine and took to the Kirra sweep on Monday.
