Inspirational crystal quote of the day:  

“Keep your eyes open to your mercies. The man who forgets to be thankful has fallen asleep." - Robert Lewis Stevenson

Buenas dias a todos los surfistas del mundo! Es otro dia gloriosos aqui en la playa mientras el sol esta alto y el shinning, listo para hacerla hornear este dia en la playa. Una vez mas, su justa como ayer con no surf a encontrarse, pero el sol esta arriba, la temperatura es de 54 grados y promete darlemas tarde de los anos 80. No windcas de todavia. Entronces, salir y caminar, bicicleta o ser perezoso. Como siempre, torally depende de ti.

CHANNEL:  Nada aqui justo ahora, pero quizas mas adelante...?.

PATCH:   Alta en mejor forma en el tobillo. Toadas las rocas, no surfistas.

Musings from the surf shop guy: To all of you "surfers" out there. If you're itching to come out to the beach and surf because it's sunny just like in all of the groovy surf movies but there isn't any surf, you should realize that by driving all the way here it isn't going to make the surf magically appear. There are a couple of things that actual surfers know and do. These days it's incredible with all of the technology available as you have countless, free websites to access that can assist to inform you if and what is happening at the beach. Some sites are pretty good at this (CDIP), others are not (Surfline). Another thing, know the spot! Know what kind of conditions work here and which don't. Swell directions, tides, storms, etc. Also, it NEVER hurts to follow the weather and their patterns...that's how we did it "way back in the old days,"(aka, before 2000). Lastly, don't come into the shop staring at the wax and asking how the surf is. You only have another 500+ steps to go to do an actual "surf check." Spend a minimum of ten (10) minutes looking at the water and seeing if anything is breaking, how often and where. Putting in the time makes you an even better surfer.

PACK IT IN, PACK IT OUT. 

Respect the Beach.
