Daily Surf Report - 3/8/2014



Inspirational crystal quote of the day:  
“To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don’t need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself.” - Thich Nhat Hanh

Welcome to the weekend!  We have sunny skies and no wind with a morning temp of 52F.  Get ready for a nice bit of weather.  Diminishing swells fade away but still give up some rideable waves.  Think of it as leftovers for breakfast.  It was better the day before but still worth riding today.  Longboards are the call and there are plenty scattered about this morning.  Dropping tide pushes back to late morning so take advantage now and ride again later.  Perfect beach day.


CHANNEL:  A few lefts of the Groin and a few rights in the Channel.  Smooth when they show and size is waist high.  Not too organized so be prepared to wait for the better waves to arrive while catching a few sectioning ones in between.  Still best on a longboard today as the push is less and the tide is draining to low.  Smoothness at times and a beautiful morning to be in the water. 



PATCH:  If you have a 9.6 longboard then please bring it to the Patch to ride.  Lovely logging morning with softening peaks that will let you in then disappear or not.  Playing a bit of a game called "Wave or Not Wave" today.  The extra length on your board will help you get in and make sections.  Size is almost waist high a few will run all the way to the beach from way outside - most don't.  Inside at the Snags there are boils to avoid with the dropping water but rights that will wall up and reel to the sand.  Fast, fun and short but smooth and glassy this morning.  Get in and get some today then check it again as the tide fills in tonight.  Those with imbedded crystals in their boards will have the best results.


PACK IT IN, PACK IT OUT. 
Respect the Beach.
