Daily Surf Report - 8/3/2013

 

 

Grizzled morning with fog on the deck enveloping us in a misty blanket.  Gives us glassy conditions as the swell fades to oblivion.  The surf community becomes taciturn, waiting for the next pulse from Mother Ocean.  Fear not as there are still smooth, yet small waves to ride and Poseidon is brewing up another dose of S swell scheduled to arrive tonight!  No wind at this time and temp is 55F.  Sun is coming and yesterday was warm and fine overall.  Tides are favorable and summer is in full swing so turn that frown upside down and come out to the beach for the day. 

 

 

CHANNEL:  Small Channel lefts in the thigh high size but still shapely and rideable. Put the fish away and pull out the longboard today.  Better yet, strap on some fins and a hand plane and body surf the inside bars.  Learn from the masters as 2 seals are frolicking about and giving tips to those wise enough to pay attention - I did. Incoming tide may give that extra push to help out while we wait for the next swell to arrive.  Plenty of beach and lots of sand to set up camp on.

 

 

PATCH:  Decreasing is size but still log-able.  Mid-way and inside rights can be ridden and size is thigh +.  Great day for beginners and enthusiasts alike.  Decent lulls between wave bursts but un-crowded at the moment.  Tide coming up and all rocks will soon be covered. 

Adult Surf Camp will be offered from August 12th to August 15th for $320 per person. Camp will last from 10:30 am to 2:30 pm and will include over 3 hours of instruction per day. Students will receive instruction on the beach and in the water and have the opportunity to surf both of the breaks in Bolinas in a range of tides and conditions. Adult Surf camps are the perfect way to quickly improve your surfing skills or learn the basics. Camp size is kept small (4 to 6 people) to ensure students receive the personal attention needed to improve. Advanced registration is required to attend and you can sign up HERE.  Surf equipment (board, wetsuit and boots) will be available to rent from the 2 Mile Surf Shop for your clinic and will be $50/day
