[PT-Racy June barrels at Avalon]

Winter on the Northern Beaches of Sydney offers the best months of the year for die-hard surfers. Writes Alex Marks from Bluesnapper. Although the water and air temps are down a bit the waves are usually amazing. This is the time of year we get solid swells, longer periods and westerly offshore winds. The water’s clear, the skies are often bright blue and the summer crowds thin out slightly. This year we have been lucky, with some amazing swell patterns pushing in to us. The two stand-out swells so far have been the 25th April (Anzac Day) swell, which was a solid 8-10 foot swell from the North East. And the 13th May swell, which was from the South-East with a long 12 second period, lighting up many of our southern corners. Here's three months of the east coast's action.

	lol, i wouldn't consider surfers who wear a 3/2 or even 4/3 wetsuit "die-hards"...try strapping on a 6/5/4 with booties, gloves and a hoodie if you want to really experience winter surfing
