Seasonal Changes
The lack of posting on this site can be explained by three things:
- Derdesteen just isn't working anymore. In the last 6 weeks I've had one moderate surf. For the rest, the swell has either been too flat (not unusual in Spring/Summer) or just not working. I've been forced to surf at Big Bay, where it tends to close out and is typically very crowded. The sad fact of Derdesteen is that it is particularly vulnerable to seasonal changes, more so than most other beach breaks in Cape Town. Towards the end of winter the sands shift severely, rendering Derdesteen a washed-out mess for virtually all conditions.
- the swell has been dire
- I've been busy recruiting a new surf buddy. More details on that later.
