Flat like Cameron Diaz's chest. But on the brighter side, super beautiful day.

Soouuper looong lulls....but some fun clean glassy chest high sets. It was nice to be reminded what a right point break is.

Started on the west side in the AM, but there wasn't much action. So I took off for a more pleasurable spot in the PM, with long fun WH-SH rights for the longboard.

Nice morning out there,mostly sunny skyes with almost no wind. Things started a little slow but got better with the dropping tide after 9, SH+ lines and only a few guys on the lineup, long lulls but all in all a fun, glassy sesh.
Went to a surfshop and got a rip curl f-bomb 5/4 for 280$, double stoked

Some bumps coming from the west at one of the points over yonder. Pretty shifty, but when they lined up, hoo-wee.... fun stuff. Pretty long lulls, but that's when you could be learning cribbage.

Occasional HH drops into long CH lines. Sunny. No wind during our early shift, but it picked up as we left.

Surfed this am from 6:45 until the tide was high-ish. Fairly decent 3-4' waves with an occasional 5' set that would roll through. good mix of long and shortboards with only a couple grumpy people in the lineup. I'm giving it a good because it was, but not a + or great because the wind is picking up early and I wanted the waves to be bigger, more consistent, and with less people :P

Surfed Eastside a lunchtime, north of where those film crews occupy the parking lot and fill the lineup with boats and boards. Solid 3-5' - light crowds and light winds. Several good waves on my new board that is 2' shorter than what I normally ride - woah! Lots of fun, mellow vibe in the water. Good times had by all.

Woke up with a gut feeling that paid off. Headed down south to a spot that's normally reserved for logs. It took raging NW winds and a massive out of control swell and groomed it into blissful, overhead left walls that were lining up from way outside all the way into a shore break closeout. OB lateral pull paddle training came in handy due to a substantial southerly current. There were a few soft sections, but racing highways outweighed the slight jams. Barrels for those in the know. Yeah, there was a crowd, but I got plenty and everyone in the water was keeping it posi. Amped with jello arms and a burnt up face. Easily my best session of the new year.

Holy frijoles, it's goin off. Nooks that are normally flat as a pancake have regularly scheduled freight trains comin through. Bring your patience for the crowd, but get your stoke on, this prob won't happen again this year

Hi tide, low crowd, rainbows, otters, and occasional head high 200 yd rights. I think most of town was in a green beer fog, friendly and mellow crowd. Empty at sunrise, gettin more crowded as I left. Waitin for the afternoon low tide double sesh.
