fair surfing conditions at San Mateo - Linda Mar

700
Tuesday 10am - San Mateo - Linda Mar, fair surfing

Surfed in front of the pump house from 7-8:30 this morning. Clean with long periods of nothing happening punctuated by fairly mellow waist high waves. Wave frequency picked up, rides got shorter, and take offs got stepper as tide continued to drop. The action moved to ###### as it looked like it was pitching some punchy short board rides. I suspect the short boarders might rate it good based on the number of people out. Rain started to fall as I was wrapping up. Had a good time getting back in the water after a couple weeks.

I was up North from 8-9, saw Greacen socializing in the lineup.

Not sure how to rate it: there were long nothings, some closeout sets, some short rides. I had fun, it was mellow, it wasn't great.

Yeah! I tried to hit each peak from the pumphouse to the northmost part of the beach. A few fun moments on the north side. I paddled back south after hitting my limit. I saw a bunch of folks set up around ######, but didn't really see the waves they were waiting for.

I missed you gamed, were you on your usual board?

I thought the ###### was fantastic before 8am. It started dumping after about 8:30. I was the dude on the Blue Longboard. Who was I talking to? greacen?

OH! youre Graecen? The beard threw me off. I was the girl in the hood on the white board with blue rails.

Yeah, I got at there at the end of the niceness. Sorry if I scared the waves away.

Yes, I'm sporting a beard-y disguise lately. Howdy @cyclona23! @Zurffy, I think I saw you up there, but I don't think we chatted.

I second that. I wasted too much energy from 7-8 on the ###### but wised up and headed north from 8-9. Not a bad morning

Zurffy, you were killing it. I wasted time at ######, and by the time got up to the ###### mostly closeouts for me. I was on a white short board doing nothing at all,couple closeouts. Testing out the head after a whiplash a little while ago, but really just not getting any waves period.We parked next to each other. Hi cyclona. I think I saw you on a longboard?

Hi Maria -- true dat, Zurffy was killin it. Yeah, that was me on the longboard. Havent been on it in a few weeks. You were also in a hood, right? @Gamed -- the dude i saw on the white board with blue stripes had dark black hair, unlike ur profile pic so im thinking it wasnt you.

Hello Maria! I was wondering what happened to you after the lot...

...Its all in the Baby Blue. My buddy shaped that board - Tim Reda, he works at the Arrow Factory. (just a plug for him, good friend of mine). It's really a fantastic board.
But thank you!

Stoke report = Craigslist missed connections!
You: Riding waves, with care free abandon
Me: Crying salt water tears to no avail, as my board was broken in two.

You didn't say anything, except are you OK as you just rolled over the flotsam in nearly perceptible glee as the next clean set was about to come in. See you tomorrow perchance under more auspicious circumstances!

I got there at 9:30 am. I thought it sucked LOL!! I was on a short board. Looked like the long boards were all in front of ######. Surfed ######. Nothing but close outs by the time we got out.

what really slays me is how you guys find these hysterical videos, and seem to have them at your fingertips at a moment's notice. And how the heck do you have the time to find them in the first place?

Maria, we're *from* the Internet.

Ha! exploding thread. Cool.

@Hodad, were you taking pictures in the parkinglot this morning?

Yes @crypto has it: we're from, in, and of these internets.

Probably too rainy to reconvene tomorrow, huh?

It is true. I am too old. Crypto, I do not understand half of what you "say". I am not even sure where to find these things on the keyboard!

@Greacen, Yea , I did take one pic with my phone as I was walking to use the restroom at ######, I sent it to the wife to show I was there and ok HAHA! I also took my boxer for a quick walk before suiting up. I was in a white toyota. Had lunch at ###### about 1 pm I don't head up that often, here and there.

@cyclona23, yea I believe you. My buddy went down and checked it early said it looked fun. Then I showed up and messed it all up HAHA!

@ Maria just say NO to being too old HA!
