Inspirational Crystal Quote Of The Day:
“In memory, everything seems to happen to music." - Tennessee Williams
An intense and eerie mix patch of dense fog and bright, blinding rays of light as we gaze seaward just past dawn. This should pass, as all the makings for a beautiful summer day are in the blender and are being prepared. Take heed if you attempt slides in the early hours, as one can easily miss the slider mere feet from you, as visibility is currently that low. The tide will be soon as well, making current conditions, and those much later in the day what you seek to feed your needs.
CHANNEL: An inside left is currently providing stoke to a single mariner this morn, although the quality of this ride leaves something to be desired, as closeout, last call vibes seem to be the dominant paradigm upon closer inspection. The vectors directly out from the ramp show empty shapes oddly free of logs and log-jammers, but water levels answer those queries quickly enough. Space is the place, just not this particular space.

PATCH: A patchwork of the usual suspects is relying on instinct and muscle memory to attempt rides and slides currently, as sight cannot be trusted. Those voices one is hearing are not yelps of stoke and success, but are being used to alert others of one's whereabouts, and/or the location of exposed rock. A solid inside shape is being enjoyed, but timing is key, and keen wits are a strict requirement. Enjoy it now, or wait on late-day sun vibes for an experience of a very different sort.
Important Note from the Bolinas Fishing Community:
When heading out the Channel, the fishing boats have a very narrow slot to navigate and the fishermen have to "thread the needle" to avoid having their boats dumped by waves. The boats don't have the ability or opportunity to veer away from oncoming waves and must take them straight on. Surfers - please practice Ocean Courtesy when boats are heading in and out of the Channel and paddle out of the boat's path to let them through. This will also help in avoiding being run over by a boat at speed.
PACK IT IN. PACK IT OUT.
