Spring Fair

Vicco has fared better than most states on the Spring surf report card. As the whole East Coast is waylaid by an extended flat spell they've woken to yet another mid-size swell - 3 feet west of Melbourne, 5 feet+ to the east.

The photos below were taken by Steve Arklay two weeks ago on a great day of Spring surf. Keep an eye out for a more recent session from Steve that will appear on Swellnet shortly.

The Hook Up

The water photographer hook up... Unless the wave is a compact and predictable reef hooking up with a well-ridden barrel is one of the hardest things a photographer can do. For his part, Darren does his best to stay concentrated on the job at hand, knowing all the while that Steve has hooked him up on a screamer. Sequence by Steven Arklay.//STUART NETTLE
