We get that scenario on the Welly West all the time in the summer. Death NW onshore for days and flat. I feel your pain.
Speaking of the Welly West, looks like a bit of a groundy for Friday/Saturday. Will keep you all posted.

The Kapiti coast is very shallow but most of the Welly West is actually very deep due to proximity to Cook Strait. Indeed if you get a proper groundy over there there are some spots which can pack quite a punch.

However due to a narrow swell window true groundies are pretty rare usually . In the summer the prevailing NNW winds are often actually from a SW airflow and are only NNW through Cook Strait. Consequently the NW winds can be extremely localized and therefor produce no swell at all despite their strength.

LOL turn it up BP!
The only wave I would label as being "superior" is an infamous little rivermouth that IsoMag features a lot, and I'm sure Jelly has shown a few photos of the same spot on this forum as well.
Otherwise, Matata, Coastlands, Airports, Whakatane Heads and one other spot all rule.

Just for the record I didn't post those photos. It's pretty hard to get that spot good but when it's on it breaks boards.

You're a kook, so your opinion isn't worth a damn because your idea of a "good wave" is anything that walls up, crumbles over and never barrels LOL. Just admit it, Coastlands is too heavy for you boi

I smell a shore boys conspiracy. Downsouth and I scored a perfect bank today, then 5 zillas paddled over and were just co(k farmers (thanks Jabes for the exp on that one). I suspect the shoreboys have released the chch secret to the world.

Whole sky was full of naughts and crosses this morn and yesturday (i have footage) There was a weird rainbow in a "U shape" too (upside down)but i couldnt capture it due to the sunlight. Time to start looking up people. And yes im a nutter (thought id get that in before anyone else)
I counted at least 8 chem-trails this morning and told my work mates that there would be a quake in the next few days.....I saw what you saw tasty

If by chem, you mean plane exhaust...Any fine day you will count that many plane trails. If there are 8 planes in the sky, they will all have the same effect.
I used to count heaps of them in Wellington when I was a kid.

Denial is a terrible thing but i understand as alot of people would fall to peices if they accepted what IS happening. Dmand i hope things are well over your side of town, horrible to see footage of the news of people suffering especially at this time of year.

Fark being there Jelly - bird's eye view though. What was it like?
I was outside in Woodend/Rangoon for both of them. Certainly knew all about it, but I'm sure it wasn't a patch on East Chur.
