Daily Surf Report - 8/6/2013

 

 

Inspirational crystal quote of the day:
"Be cool, dude. Don't harsh my buzz." -Barrett

 

Good morning everyone and welcome to another gray summer morning here at the beach. The temperature is slipping in at a cool but comfortable 56 degrees and again, no wind as of yet making the water surface glassy and shinier than Michael Jordan's head. The tiny drawback here is that the little swell we had as done up and left.... pretty much. Janitorial gear or the time to wait out the low tide with a HUGE board could make the difference between gliding at the Channel or working on your resume.  

 

 

CHANNEL:  Exposed sand bars. Yes, the tide is sagging lower than a wannabe gangsta from Larkspur's pants. There is a teeny knee (+/-) wave trying to break on the outside but there isn't really too much push today. Again, with the incoming tide, the sand bars eventually becoming covered there may be a little something-something later today. BIG boards could be the answer. No one here yet as I write this.

 

 

PATCH:  Glassy as the eyes of a blond dreaded, Fairfax 'Trustafarian' after a huge bong rip of the NorCal sticky-icky BUT the waves are very small and generally dissipate into the murky abyss. Long period waits as these little teasers start inside of the Rock/Bulk Head/Meeting Rock at knee (+/-) and either crumble towards the exposed rocks or just go away. Maybe later when the tide recedes but don't hold your breath. Only Russ on his SUP there today searching for waves and for the meaning of life. Sail on, Sailor.

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
