When Everywhere Pumped: Classic Perfect Winter Surf In Australia

We knew it’d be good. We didn’t know it’d be this good. The swell that doubled down along the Australian east coast on the weekend had been lurking around the forecast charts for at least a week. It looked like a classic mid-winter reversal of form — a swell from the east after three months of south? This is kinda predictable, we all hope for it. But as the winds began to build in the northern Tasman Sea last Thursday night, some kind of switch was flicked, and within 48 hours, everywhere from Straddie to Sydney was lighting up. It was the kind of surf people travel thousands of k’s to find, yet here it was, right on everyone’s doorsteps. Here’s a look at 2024’s best weekend so far.

Mick Fanning at PERFECT Pumping Snapper Rocks

Australia's Gold Coast recently came alive with a never ending run of back-to-back swells. In late April, as the WSL's Championship Tour was doing business on Australia's southern and west coasts, the more northern Gold Coast came alive, and Simon "Shagga" Saffigna (legendary longtime friend and filmer to Mick Fanning), Joel Parkinson and Dean "Dingo" Morrison, was there to capture all of the action.

When the dusted had settled we needed to investigate, so we rang Mick to get the down low. After a marathon stint of waves you'd forgive a surfer for sounding a little low on energy but when Mick answered our call he was full of life and happy to have a chat. So happy, in fact, that we turned the conversation into the soundtrack for the edit above. We think you'll agree it explains the crazy visuals perfectly.

From the incredible waves to the wild wipeouts and the celebrated surfers in the water to the sheer volume of humans in general, Mick was candid and engaging.

8x World Champion - Stephanie Gilmore

“I’m so proud to be involved in women’s professional surfing, and women’s surfing in general. Every single place we go to around the world we have a huge number of young girls and women in the surf who you can tell are so inspired by what we do on tour, and that's the best part of what we do. We are pushing the sport into a new place but the part that makes me happy is seeing women in the water. That's my job, if I can get more women in the water, then I’m doing the right thing”. Stephanie Gilmore

8x World Champ and inspiration to the next generation of women’s surfers around the world (including best friend, Dimity Stoyle)
