2012 NL WEST CHAMPIONS
A little fog keeping things on the down low. The haze is misting through, shrouding the super clean conditions out there. Sun poking it's head out here and there, we should see it burn off soon, hopefully...not too much swell out there but plenty of people making there way out into the water, a great beginner day.
CHANNEL: tons of surfers out enjoying the warm water and clean conditions. Not much swell but there are bits and pieces here and there. Some shin to knee and occasional thigh high rollers coming through. ABout 15 longboarders on it and a few SUPers. Super glassy, grab your biggest floaty board and catch some cruisers.
PATCH: not much going on currently, double over flea out there...waves, when they do come, are only about ankle to shin slappers on the inside. No one currently out.

Hey everyone! I have exciting news...
The "Aloha Pass" (an all event pass getting you in to see all 5 features, at least 8 shorts and The Mermen performing at 10pm) went on sale a minute ago. The price of the Aloha Pass is $65 (does not include tax and fees). FYI, Tickets to each Set will cost $10 and the concert by The Mermen is $25. I really want to give you all and other local surfers the first crack at getting this pass before we announce to the general public. . We think they are going to go fast. Here is the link to buy tickets.
