Weekend surf report

There’s promise of a rising swell this weekend as a result of an intense low pressure system of the coast of south-eatern Australia.

North Wall at Ballina had a rideable swell up to 1.5m today, with smaller waves at Flat Rock and Boulder Beach.

Lennox Point could be the place to be if the big swell eventuates.

Meanwhile, young Angourie surfer Laurie Towner is mixing it with some big names after being named a finalist in Billabong’s annual big-wave awards.

He has been named a finalist in the tube riding category after latching onto a monster wave in Tasmania. Check it out at http://www.billabongxxl.com/awards/
