Maybe they should have just called it "the Nationals" as throwing the word wave in there was a bit ambitious. Bahahaha

No we are in shorts weather (look at the spectators) but stuck in probably the worst conditions atm, very tropical, humid, although they got wind on Saturday and good swell on Sunday. A westerly front would have brought better wind and swell. More thunderstorms and tonnes of rain expected later this week.

Unfortunately this weekends GKA World tour event wind forecast isnt looking good but typical of Torquay in December.

Noting our best wind direction is sw around to se and a sw swell for waves, not even looking hot enough to pull in an afternoon seabreeze, hope the crew can still put on a show

sorry, but are you joking. I see one guy in shorts and jumper, the rest are in steamers and primary guy at front of shot wearing what looks like something a Eskimo native would wear.

It looks cold
