The Snowy is the longest running SUP event in Sydney (this is its third year) and attracts some big names in our sport from the Manly area and surrounds.

With big waves, sunshine and off-shore winds - it would be well worth getting down to Manly beach, this weekend, to check it all out.

arrrrhhhhhh!!!!!!! its about 3 to 4ft here
just got one of the longest heaving barrels i've had on a sup this morning
driving down soon
Hey dogman it 3-4 foot here now as well and rising, will be on in the morning!!!
Here's a pic from 11am:
I surfed Manly (just south of the North Styne SLSC) around 3 this afternoon and it was waist to head high on the sets (long wait for a set)
I had my name on the wait list (they said it was at the top :), it is a bummer but i won't be in sydney on the saturday. will be up racing at the xcel. I will be there on Monday though. All the best mate
just spoke to Lynden and he actually said there are 3 spots free for the comp...
Just looking through the program looks like you guys up there are in for a fun three days
.
I know the surfing is the main focus but was wondering in there sup race the length is only up to 12ft so does this mean boards like Casso's new 12'6" Custom won't be in the running
,
Cheers.
Good little waves down Manly Beach this morning - still in the waist to head high range.
Looks like people that came for the snowy are starting to head out for a bit of practice - trimming, nose rides and head dips galore going on when I finally came in. Couple stand ups about but not many.
