First day of Christmas break saw some nice 2 meter swell, clean
conditions. Managed to get a few mollydookers along with the dolphins. I love
summer !!!
The term mollydooker I first heard last year in Indonesia. I met a champion bloke from L.A surfing a right hander at a very good but low key location. He referred to the bomb sets as "mollydookers" as in "here comes a mollydooker, it's your turn", he explained that as kids thats what they called the "big sets". I loved the term and use it now quite frequently and being an American based blog I thought it would be appropriate and also curious if anyone else used the term. In this case it has nothing to do with a "lefty". Cheers Bretto

Lovely pics and rides!And looks warm too.
From all the visual evidence I've seen, Brett is living right!
Mollydookers would referto lefts or a left handed person. A southpaw so to speak. These great waves are rights. Splain.
