Surfing is good. A bit tough to pick the right peak in the predawn light, and maybe a little less punch than yesterday, but nice shape...

"In the middle i'd call it a fair- again. It's smaller than yesterday at about chest high but it's slightly more organized. An ever so slight tide dro ..."

"I'm pretty sure I saw waveslave get shacked in a monster barrel. That gangster lean into the tube, pushing back like a man gets him the coverups :)"

"Paddled out w/@H20 & the elusive @crypto & had the same experience @jesse had... Tough to pick the right spot when you can't see the water from shore ..."

Great weather, fun semi-clean rides,good times. Stoked

"Stacey waited patiently on the beach. I tied her to the pole there by the r0cks. Coupla gals in bikins pet her, she sniffed around, barked when I go ..."

"She's picky bro, and in therapy to boot. Gunna drive another dog crazy."

Surfed ###### from about 10-11:30. Shoulder to a lil' bit overhead. There were a few sets pushing through outside, but mostly not connecting. Although there were a lot of walled closeout sections there were definitely some lined up shoulders if you could hunt em' down. Semi-crowded, but mellow. Pretty fun overall and the weather's absolutely gorgeous. Hurry up before the wind gets on it. Me thinks fall's coming...

"beautiful weather and fun, racy sections. if you can get out of work, school or (in my case) diaper duties, it's worth the trip to the beach."

"was cursing the stacked up wind swell churn on the inside (I'm still cleaning sand out of my ears) but then was smiling when some nice ones that came ..."

"Don't mean to be mean, but I think @tcannon and I agree...near miss for swimmer = good surfing...heh :)"

Was a fun sunny morning. Waves weren't breaking with exceptional power and the paddle was ok if you timed it right and zig-zagged through the peaks. Saw some decent rides out there. Choose your wave wisely though - getting caught inside was a real energy drain.

Fair-
The swell jumped up a few notches over night but it's pretty disorganized. Looks to be about chest/shoulder high/Windswelly short little rides that I didn't see too many people getting after looking at it for a half an hour. It's a nice day out there with not a breath of wind and sunny skies. Happy September!

"Went out for a session at the M-N-O-P-Q-R areas. Why so many? Well, you put in at M and you get out an hour or more later at R. Loads of current. Defi ..."

"I found my way out three times, and to the cliffs of despair twice. There were some clean sets on the outside, but the inner bar was just brutally imp ..."

"Yep, that inner bar would make you pay for trying to ride an outside wave a bit too long. I caught a few and got tired pretty quick. Need to get in sh ..."

The buoys would have you believe SFOB was utter crap. It's better than that. WH-CH longboardably fun. Textured but nice lines. Light wind.

"went in at dawn it was glassy for about 30 minutes before the texture showed up. No outside peaks at all where I was. Was some fun waist to shoulder ..."

"It was waist high by my house with no push at all. I was giving up and walking home when I spotted a little racey wave, surfed it for another hour. St ..."

"I was out by ###### and it was really fun with waist to chest high glassy wedging barrels coming through. I am throughly stoked. I give it a Fair+ als ..."

Caught it before the wind really picked up between 10 and 12:00. It was junky, but, kind of fun with the occasional peak. Its about waist to chest high and doubling up really bad with plenty of chop. By the time I got out it was totally like poop. Most enjoyment I had was the sea lion playing around me while I waited for sets. Otherwise, its yucky!

"Oh how quickly things change! "

Sfob junky.... too much wind

@Duck dive picked A good day to go to Canada.
A brisk north west wind over 10 kts with waist high crumbly nothing waves; really doesn't look very surfable. Catch up on sleep, catch up on work, it'll get better soon!

"Frank was out there."

"Was he angry? "

"Wind died quite a bit, much more fun than it looked. Still poor plus plus, the extra plus is for only 2 other people in the water. Quickly Surfed 930 ..."

Nada surf on this end. In fact it's been awhile since it was this flat. Plus vehicle access to parking areas are blocked due to an event. So if you're really feelin' froggy this AM, plan on hiking in...with some flotation.

"bike race til 11am... Gotta take 19th or bike. looks like Theres some waves by my house with a sw breeze but still kinda clean on the outside. Round s ..."

It's Saturday. Sadly the wind is howling at the beach and the Ocean is whitecapped to the horizon. Ocean beach is an unrideable junky mess of shoulder to head high whitewater. If you have time. Drive south.

REQUEST: I'm out of town for the next week in Canadia for a canoe camping trip. It would be great if someone could try to submit a regular OB morning report. Thanks!!

"Have fun in Kannuckistan. Always remember.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kT8rTsaHI4"

"yep. Lest we forget there's a great surf scene :) Go Lance Johnson! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHx2R49Bots"

Friday morning brings us familiar overcast skies and a blustery onshore wind. The SW swell has gone and we're left with windswell and local chop. It's pretty junky/messy but you could make a go of it if you were motivated. Looks head high-ish.

"After taking a look at all of OB & shaking my head in disgust, I took @David's advice & took a drive south. I was stoked w/what I ended up finding. S ..."

I am paddling out no matter what. The wind is in my face and my wetsuit is sandy but I donʻt care. South peaks at ######...
