Daily Surf Report - 6/30/2012

Gradually clearing overcast with a current temp of 59F. Again no wind and again micro waves. We have shin-burners and barnacle-bashers rolling through today.
Suggestions: Add a few feet to your longest board and you may have a chance of riding waves today. Bring a book to the beach and wait for the tide to fill in. Pray to the surf totems for more swell. Stop by the shop and buy a new board.

Channel: Utlra smooth, glassy and very, very small. Inside middle bar waves in the ankle/knee high size. Not completely flat but close. Inner bar Mali-Bo reform again has a small right that is ankle to calf high. Currently 2 people out in the water - nice.


Patch: Flat and glassy - no bueno for surfing. Lake Bolinas right now. Good for SUPs, kayaks and swimmers today. We may see some improvement at this location later in the day as tide fills in. Small waves could appear in the evening.

Summer Time = Simmons Time.

If you haven't seen or tried the Mini-Simmons now is the time. Old and new ideas come together, this displacement hull and almost no rocker has been improved by ending the tail with a double concave and a quad fin setup. The fastest and funnest board I've ever ridden. So buttery and skatey on the turns with speed for days. Works insane in all conditions and ridden ridiculously small. We now have a 5'10" DEMO board in the shop that you can rent to experience the difference. Stock sizes in the rack are 5.6, 5.8, 5.10 and 6.0



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