February and March are good months if you’re a surfer on the Gold Coast. Of course, there are LOTS of surfers on the Gold Coast, so we’d wager that a lot of those surfers feel both excited about the waves and angry at the crowds, but the quality of the waves more than makes up for it. Waves like the ones at Snapper Rocks.
Nobody Surf, a YouTube channel that routinely posts raw footage from very good days at very good waves, recently posted the 20 minutes from Snapper you see above. There are lots of locals Joes getting amongst it, but getting amongst those locals are local pros and non-local pros like Mick Fanning, Mikey Wright, Leonardo Fioravanti , Griffin Colapinto, Frederico Morais, Crosby Colapinto, McKenzie Bowden, Nick Vasicek, Chris Zaffis, Wade Carmichael, Mitch Crews, Mitch Parkinson, Lungi Slabb, Matthew McGillivray, Nathan Hedge, Brent Dorrington, Joel Parkinson, Stephanie Gilmore, Ben Webb, Sheldon Simkus, Mitch James, Carlos Munoz, and more.
