Behind The Rock
Good afternoon all, Visual Collective is coming to you from Snapper Rocks. Another incredible day of surf here on the GC, with all the points lighting up with this new swell. I spent my mornings around Snapper capturing all the pros take apart some epic rides and barrels behind the rock at Snapper and down into the bay. The swell is slightly decreasing tomorrow into the 2-3ft range and is predicted to stay around that mark for the rest of the week. If I've captured you in any

Weekend Catch Up
Good afternoon all, Visual Collective is coming to you from the Gold Coast Another incredible weekend of surf here on the GC, with all the points lighting up over the past few days. I spent my mornings around Burleigh and Coolangatta capturing all the action from the points and the beachies. With some of the standout waves coming through at Froggies and of course behind the rock at Snapper. The Dbah sand pump was busy over the weekend, feeding sand into the southern points, g

Burleigh Gold
Good afternoon all, Visual Collective is coming to you from Burleigh Heads Another absolute cracker start to the day here on the Gold Coast and my day started at Burleigh for sunrise. Sharkies and The Cove were the pick on the morning low with some drainers coming through on the south sets and the barrel weaving locals getting some long rides. The swell is slightly increasing tomorrow into the 2-4ft range and is predicted to increase further for the weekend. Saturday is looki

Sliding
Good evening all, Visual Collective is coming to you from Kirra. I bit of a cold and wet start to the day here on the Gold Coast, but it cleared mid morning for a pretty decent arvo. Kirra and the points had some fun waves, with the swell hanging around the 2-3ft mark and good south winds throughout. There was the usual crew of longboard and local rippers out early, I was tempted to jump in the ocean, but the weather got the best of me and I shot from the land trying to perfe

The Reef
Good evening all, Visual Collective is coming to you from Kirra. Another great autumn day here on the coast and my day started down at Kirra for sunrise at the point, followed by a paddle out to the reef to see what was around. If you haven't been out there, it's well worth the short paddle from the beach near the second groyne or out from the surf break, heading north/east. I normally paddle my board out, but swimming from the beach is equally as doable. The reef is full of

Happy Easter
Good afternoon, Visual Collective is coming to you from Currumbin Alley. Happy Easter everyone, I hope you're all staying safe and healthy over this unpredictable time...it's been hard for a lot of people but let's hope we can get a handle on it soon. Another awesome looking autumn day here on the Gold Coast and a fun 2-3ft swell hitting the beaches. I spent the morning surfing / snapping my second board for the month and floating around the Alley shooting these perfect autum

Surfers Sunrise
Good afternoon all, Visual Collective is coming to you from Surfers Paradise. I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy over this unpredictable time...it's been hard for a lot of people but let's hope we can get a handle on it soon. The Gold Coast awoke to a stunning sunrise and some pretty fun waves out front of the glitter strip. Only small this morning with some clean 2-3 ft sets still holding shape on the low-tide banks up and down the stretch giving plenty of options f

Mixed Bag
Good evening all, Visual Collective is coming to you from Burleigh and Kirra. We definitely had a mixed bag of weather today on the coast and from the photos you wouldn't believe they were all taken today. I started my day down at Burleigh Beach for sunrise that had potential for being a good one but unfortunately fizzled out as the sun came up. But on the plus side it did produce some nice moody light. With the sun coming out around lunch, we headed down to Kirra for another

Autumn Feels
Good afternoon all, Visual Collective is coming to you from Currumbin Beach. Another stunning Gold Coast day is on the cards for Sunday and it's starting to feel a lot like Autumn. It started a little chilly with perfect, clean 2ft offshore waves along the Currumbin stretch and plenty of crew having fun. I swam out at sunrise and shot for a few hours and when a left wedge popped up in the corner of the rock, I swapped the camera for the board. I can never say no to a good wed

Kirra Magic
Good afternoon all, Visual Collective is coming to you from Kirra. What more can I say about the consistency and quality of swell the Gold Coast has been having over the past month, but it's been unreal. Kirra was magic this morning with a good pulse of E-SE swell still hanging around the 3-5ft mark and light SW winds early. I managed to jag a few waves before taking the housing out for a 1.5hr swim. Cramps in both legs, big paddle in and just making it back to shore was all

Cyclone Gretel
Good afternoon all, Visual Collective is coming to you from ex tropical cyclone Gretel. The Gold Coast has been firing of late, with at least a good month of waves so far and no sigh of it slowing down in the foreseeable future,we've been damn lucky. The latest offering was produced by ex tropical cyclone Gretel which has now moved offshore towards NZ and like most cyclone swells, it was a little over hyped. It was predicted to be 6-8ft for a few days, but it was more like 4-

Clarity's Back
Good afternoon all, Visual Collective is coming to you from the weekend. It's great to see the clarity back after all the rain we've had on Gold Coast. I spent the last few days enjoying the sun and the balmy 27- degree water surfing and floating with the housing. ( once again is leaking ) thanks Meikon.... The water and surf conditions will only be improving from now on moving into autumn and winter so stay tuned for more blogs from the ocean. The waves are increasing slight

Log Sessions
Good afternoon all, Visual Collective is coming to you from Kirra. I've spent the last couple of mornings surfing and shooting with some of the lads at Kirra. The conditions weren't big by any means, but perfect for the dusting off the logs for some long rides inside the point. It was good to get back in the water after waiting to replace my dome port and camera due to some water damage...having the camera in the water always sparks conversation and it's always good to meet n

Grovel
Good morning all, Visual Collective is coming to you from Dbah. Well I can't say much about the quality of waves this morning with strong northerlies up all night, making for some bumpy and challenging conditions. The only saving grace was the size and the decent banks currently on the Dbah stretch. The waves are decreasing slightly tomorrow into the 2-4ft range and continue to sit around the 2-3 foot mark for the remainder of the week. Looks like another week of N-NE winds s

Morning Sesh
Good afternoon all, Visual Collective is coming to you from Miami. With the mornings here on the Gold Coast getting much cooler, as surfers we know what that means....morning offshores that continue throughout the day and perfect crystal clear waters. As a surfer and photographer I love this time of year. Definitely some fun waves around this morning in the 2-3ft mark and some nice barrels on the lower tide. The waves are predicted to stay in the 2-4ft range for the next few

Red Bull Airborne
Good afternoon all, Visual Collective is coming to you from Duranbah Beach. It was a wet and gloomy start to the day on the Gold Coast, but that didn't stop the Red Bull Airborne trails kicking off at Dbah. This competition gives the best aerialist from local boardriders a chance to compete in the Boost air show, running in conjunction with the upcoming 2019 Quicksilver Pro. With the conditions on the small side, this didn't stop the competitors giving it all with some great
