Martin Bramley lived and surfed in Albany WA for 7 yrs in the 1980’s.
Martin Bramley. “September 1984 and I’d just got back from a three-month surf trip in Sri Lanka and Indo. A freak Cyclone hit Albany, which pumped waves into the Middleton Beach Jetty which never breaks. It was huge everywhere else, so we got out there, a novelty wave really! After surfing the tropics. I had a very cold session with the regular hard-core locals.
I hope some of the Old Crew from Albany see this, we were a tight Group. Jodie Cooper when not on Tour, used to surf with us.
I now live in the Bay of Plenty NZ….I still attempt to get out for a surf but due to a broken back in ’80s and old age 68, I don’t get out much.😅 “
