Overcast, calm and currently 54F. We have had some strong winds lately but we start this morning calm and glassy. Still have very low tide conditions hampering the waves but south swell is sticking around. Going to need a few hours of incoming water to cover up the rocks and sand then start the wave machine again so later today should be more surfable.
Channel: Sandbars are exposing as we speak. Small waves that are perfectly formed and barrelling on the inside and middle bar closer to the boat ramp but becoming un-surfable. Knee to thigh high now. Should start to improve with more water by late morning and into the afternoon. Currently about 6 in the water.
Patch: Still has some white water out by and past the meeting rock. Some surf on the south side of the rock and a bit inside where rocks are starting to show. Should start to be more loggable in a little while as tide fills in. Thigh high + but not consistent. Keep your eye on this spot for later.
They're Back! Michel Junod surfboards have re-stocked the shop racks. Come by to check out the selection of eggs and classic longboards.
"The “ride everything” movement has sparked interest throughout the surfing world to fine tune previous design movements and incorporate various design aspects of these movements into new exciting shapes that bring unique experiences to the curious and adventuresome surfer.
Living in SC, maintaining my business and shaping custom boards has been my top priority. This remarkable surf town has blessed me not only with many friendships locally, but also has given me the opportunity to build new friendships with people I’ve shaped boards for from all over the world. There is a special joy in receiving compliments from customers who have expressed their gratitude for my making them an exceptional surfboard. I have found that a reputation is built one board at a time."
