A day with Carl Gonsalves
The first section of a two part series...

living on the popular Northern Beaches these days limits you in terms of wave variety with wind and swell lacking to aline frequently & large crowds surfing the limited waves make for frustrating sessions. Myself, good friend Carl Gonsalves and his girlfriend Anna, headed south to a place that I had been to once, not traditionally known as a longboarding wave, more for bodyboarders... We left early and made our way to the Coal Coast, after driving for a few hours and numerous stops we reached the somewhat empty, typical American suburban community, every house resembling the one next to it, we drove through national parks and stumbled down muddy tracks, perfect waves awaited, the sun was out, the water crystal clear and next to nobody out...

What you see here was what we found and surfed that day for a few hours.. quick sections, stalls, nose rides, bottom turns and head dips...
