poor surfing conditions at San Francisco - Ocean Beach

4083
Saturday 8am - San Francisco - Ocean Beach, poor+ surfing

Some serious HH groundswell is coming in from afar. However, up close, we have some gnar sideshore creating absolute havoc. Took the fish out, lost the fish. Swam back in. I found it at the shore, I knew it wouldn't bob around on the inside, because like I said, there's some serious push out there. Size isn't huge, but it's definitely got some punch. The walk of shame was absolutely MISERABLE. Colder than a witches tit out there. Claws barely could get me back into the house. Worth a paddle. You could find something. Poor+ rated on conditions, not lost fish :)

That is quite a fish story, glad you recovered your catch. Thanks for the heads up!

Thanks for the report. I knew between the wind readings and what I was seeing on the cam that it couldn't possibly be as good as shayshay was saying, but I was just about to swallow my disbelief and head out the door. Will get some stuff done around the house today and hope for waves tomorrow.

I wanted to take the wind out back and shoot it this morning.

I would have rated it as Good+. Had a fairly easy paddle out and then picked off some nice OH rides with significant length to them. The off-shore winds were holding them up to make the drops fairly easy but the shoulders had some kick. Things got a little uglier around 10am when the winds picked up a few knots, but by then I had the smile on my face and left stoked.

I would take today again tomorrow...
