Daily Surf Report - 3/13/2011

As of 12:50 pm:

Conditions pretty much the same with the wave height dropping in accordance with the tide. Patch is not surfable at this time.
There are a few people out in the channel mostly waiting, but catching something here and there, thigh high.

Will be closing early today... around 4pm


Good Morning.

This morning we've got high overcast skies. There is still some swell showing in the water, unfortunately today it is accompanied by a stiff onshore breeze.

Channel/Groin: Waves are breaking in the waist high range. Again not real clean due to the wind but definitly rideable. There are four people out right now.

Patch: Disorganized breaking outside the rock and inside as well.
Outside waves are not clean, inside waves are cleaner but smaller.
A few people on the inside catching thigh high waves.

I'll update later...


NEWS: Mini Simmons Surfboards -
New batch of Mini Simmons boards are in the shop! Come by and be one of the first to get your hands on the boards. Buy and ride today - it works insane.

With the return of retro and classic surfboards, many surfers love the feel of riding a Mini Simmons board. Based on the early designs of Bob Simmons, who was light years ahead of his peers, the boards were considered revolutionary at the time. They have enjoyed resurgence in the last few years with a massive decrease in their length, and a modernization of their features. The best way to describe these boards is short and wide. The board is a revelation to ride. They are loose, oh so skatey and the fastest board you’ll feel under your feet -period.
Designed so that even the heaviest of riders can go small in size, these boards are ridden ridiculously small, rarely getting over the 6’0” mark. An awesome alternative to the swallow-tail fish which can tend to be tippy and doesn’t handle bigger surf well.


We have new locally shaped SK8 Hand Planes in the shop made from recycled skateboards. Pair it with a set of Churchill fins and you will always have a smile on your face after your session. Each plane is unique and has individual signed artwork. Come by the shop and check them out. Makes a great gift for the surfer in the family.

Awesome board bags from Deeper Visions are flying out the door. Hand-made by a local Bolinas artist. A perfect way to store your board and all are one of a kind. Check out our current selection or ask about a custom order.

Just a reminder to pack your trash!!! PACK IT IN, PACK IT OUT. Respect the Beach.
