President's Day,
The conditions are somewhat calm, light onshore winds, not much texture on the water, most likely a little morning sickness and should clear if and when the sun does come out turning winds into the favorable prevailing WNW direction. The surf at the moment is having a hard time showing me what it is made of. This is because there is a 6 ft high tide peaking in just a few minutes. I did see a series of swells come in cleanly and break off the middle groin bar, but there frequency was infrequent. With less water I am sure this will be a much more surfable day.
Channel: waiting for the tide to back off, about 3 surfers in the water.
Occasional nice waist high walled up wave.
Patch: Not yet, but maybe in a bit.
New logs in the shop. Resin tinted and Volan cloth - a classic combination. Big wide noses and fins. Soft, buttery rails to cruise, glide and trim. These are both 10.0' and were shaped by master craftsman, Bob Miller, out of Santa Cruz. These are the last coming out of his shaping bay for a while as he is sailing off to warmer waters. If you want a board to rule the Patch come take a look.
2012 Tide Logs are finally in. Come by to pick one up.
Just a reminder to pack your trash!!! PACK IT IN, PACK IT OUT. Respect the Beach.
