There's no real storyline here, just a series of early morning starts under fine spring conditions that resulted in a feast of images.

Thanks Tim, just brilliant. Enjoyed it so much. Go the old bodybashers. What's that headland to the north?

Known as the hole in the wall, or indian head. But the hole is no longer there and the head fell off a few years ago.

Brilliant clip .. felt like I was in the water ..

Yeah just brilliant!! HAHA!! Seaweed, bodysurfing 1 foot slop and more seaweed - my favourite. Well done Tim!! Actually I’m amazed at how so much talent has been so misdirected. I usually enjoy most of Tim’s work. - not this time but I agree with some comments which suggest people liked the music.

Nice one Tim.

What a breath of fresh air. That is indeed the other side of the surface that doesn't get enough publicity.
Well done Tim. A great reminder of the other reason we get in the sea.

Intuitive editing making us aware of the natural elements of a very special place. Thank you Tim! Its much appreciated.

Nice. Love being forced to reflect on all the things going on between waves.

Bnkref Tuesday, 19 Oct 2021 at 01:12 pm new

That was excellent.

A welcome change from the standard surf clip.

nicko74 Thursday, 21 Oct 2021 at 10:37 pm new

Not for me

Been doing a fair bit of bodysurfing over the last few years, mainly due to crowds and the fact that a near unsurfably small day can be a lot of fun.

The connection with the wave is something that you don’t get surfing.

That was lovely. A new editor’s work maybe?
