Daily Surf Report - 8/14/2013

 

 

Inspirational crystal quote of the day:

“ Man plans, God laughs. ”
—  my mom.

Good morning to all of you on this gloriously beautiful hump day! It's about 54 degrees as the sun is out and the birds are singing in the key of Eva Cassidy and there isn't even the smallest morsel of wind about.... nor is there any surf. However, it's still a bee-u-tee-ful day out which means one could spend the day at the beach lounging about or go hiking but basically just flat-out enjoy this weather while we have it.  

 

CHANNEL: Knee high to a bol-weevil with not much else happening. Weather-wise it's a wonderful day out and maybe later this spot could kick in a little undulation for which one may slide upon. Until then, enjoy the weather! One (1) janitor sweeping up waaaaaaay over by Sea Drift going straight for several yards then..... nuthin'.

 

 

PATCH: Flat as a pool table and twice as green. Maybe later....?

Inspirational crystal quote of the day:
“ Life's more amusing than we thought. ”
— Andrew Lang.

Its a chill day with chilly conditions. Gray skies and an air temperature of 57*f. I spent the last 4 hours aligning the shop crystal collection and meditating on the surf but alas, my efforts were in vain. Surf is a microscopic ankle to calf, and looking not so clean. Two positive ladies headed out now, and no one is following. Polish your crystal ball and look for a hopeful future. However imperfect the conditions may be, entering the ocean always delivers a beautiful day.

 

CHANNEL: I have an apology to make. While trying reason with Zeus and create east winds, I bumped my magic orb and made a slight south-easterly. I know it was reckless of me but I tried my best. The channel is small and bumpy with not many sections to be ridden but plenty of strait lines to be drawn if you have a big board.

 

 

PATCH: Un-crowded, yet consistently un-rideable. I'm seeing rocks with rocky sets breaking on rocks. I'm no spiritual leader, but I'm seeing very spiritual possibilities here. Find the crystal in the rock-bed and be positive.

Inspirational crystal quote of the day:
“There are plenty of crystals in the world to save our souls.” - Anonymous

Possibly Closing Early today, CALL in advance. 

Its as calm as a crystal out there today but not nearly as clear. Foggy skies have enveloped our tiny little town and brought along a sheet o' glass ocean surface. 57*f this morning will sure to enhance your senses and arise the crystal in your heart. Mid low tide isn't very spectacular for the surf but with a pocket full of shinning gems, and heart full of shinning feelings you will have fun. 

 

 

CHANNEL: The sand bars are floating around on the surface but there is a ride-able knee to thigh high pulse cascading under 7 wave hunters rip-sticks. Sets are breaking way out there and every one is in a mood that feels good. Super glue your strongest double terminated tabular point crystal to your board and get some waves.

 

 

PATCH:  Some say I have gone off the deep end, but I say, "No way dude, tides to low and most of the patch is a rock bed." Ankle high bits and pieces are bumping around in an inch or two of water. High tide is the only option today for this spot but with more water far less toes will be stubbed.

Daily Surf Report - 8/11/2013

Inspirational crystal quote of the day:
“Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.”- Ralph Waldo Emmerson

SUN has arrived!! 
No wind and temp is 57F.  Should see sun as overcast is high and there are spots trying to burn through.  Still meager surf offerings as small swell conditions and low tide are in play right now.  Afternoons have been loggable and weather has been nice so the beach may be the place to spend your Sunday.

 

 

CHANNEL:   Fully exposed sand bars this morning as peak LOW tide occurs.  Only 2 surfers currently in the water and the surf does look better than yesterday which means it is rideable on the outside Channel bar with a longboard.  Size is thigh high but the left has a bit of shape and can be ridden.  More water with the incoming tide can only help so giddy up and get wet.   Inside Groin left is a work of perfection yet only 1' in height.  Peels and reels for 100 yards but not enough juice to get a surfboard going.  Nice to watch and mind-surf it.  Seals and pelicans out and about in force.

 

 

PATCH:  Shallow conditions and rocky as well.  Small inside right working on the sandy side of things and knee high in size.  2 are in the water and more will follow.  Incoming tide throughout the day will give this spot potential for cruisable waves.  Keep an open eye and mind today and come to the Patch.  Bring the BIGGEST board.

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

Inspirational crystal quote of the day:
"Your present circumstances don't determine where you can go; they merely determine where you start." - Nido Quebin

 

Calm, overcast and peaceful morning in beautiful West Marin.  Temp is 59F and sun should be out mid-morning with mild temps as well.  Very smooth and nearly flat ocean today.  What little S swell is out there seems to be missing us this time.  It is still a nice beach day and waves will pop up from time to time so surfing is still a possibility.

 

 

CHANNEL:   Fully exposed sand bars this morning as peak LOW tide occurs.  A congregation of surfers and SUPs in a tight pack on the Channel bar.  If I could only be a fly on the wall right now.  Not much surfing going on but probably lots of interesting conversations.   1 knee high left came through that was attacked by all.  Much more tide is required and may help but that wont be until later today.  BIG board is most necessary.  Or communicate with nature and throw your cares and gear away.  Hit the inside bars with the seals and learn to swim and body surf with the masters. 

 

 

PATCH:  Smooth and glassy and lake-like.  Nearly flat with a very small and very inside right in the calf high size being surfed by 3 in the water.  Plenty of exposed rocks this morning but more tide and the potential for the S swell to show keeps hope alive.  Check it later when the tide fills in.  Bring the BIGGEST board.

Inspirational crystal quote of the day:
"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart." - Helen Keller

 

Overcast, coastal cloudiness starts today with morning temp of 57F and very calm conditions.  Sun is a mystery right now but yesterday it was out early and in full force.  No wind and super smooth ocean.  By super smooth we also mean flat.  Just localized wind swell right now but potential S swell hope is on the buoys and may be on the way up.  Bring a big board and a positive attitude and you can ride waves with the seawall crew today.

 

 

CHANNEL:   Fully exposed sand bars right now yielding non-surfable conditions.  Almost knee high lefts breaking in almost 6" of water.  More tide is required and may help but don't expect too much from this spot today.  Empty line up now but expect 40 kids soon. 

 

 

PATCH:  Smooth and glassy but very small to flat.  Periodic rollers at the meeting rock starting to break, reforming, rolling inside and dying.  Big logs can make this work and the surfers eyeing it are trying to rustle up the motivation to be first in the water.  Scamper right on by and get wet.  Have a solo session and enjoy the solitude.  Waves will come and you will ride.  Knee high +

Inspirational crystal quote of the day:
“The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.”- Lao Tzu

 

Drizzly with hope of sun as it is trying to burn through at spots along the way.  Bring the rain coat for now as it is wet, windless and 59F with high humidity.  Super smooth ocean surface with low tide and small bumps to ride.  Fun stuff has been the norm in the afternoon with higher water levels.

 

 

CHANNEL:  Exposed sand bars but the only morning game in town right now.  Small lefts in the knee high size are what the offerings are with the low tide and small swell conditions.    Incoming tide + big board will yield results so a little waiting will pay off today.  Already 5 in the water giving it a whirl.

 

 

PATCH:  Smooth and glassy but very small.  Trying to work but needs more water to have a better chance of success.  Empty line up at this time but will be the spot to check later in the day.  Afternoons have been waist high here but keep it secret.
