beautiful day. . . cold. medium crowds, but nice vibe on the holiday. clean conditions, but the swell is getting swamped by the rising tide, i'm afraid. pretty slim pickin's when i left. did i mention cold? brrrrr!
meh. . . some rideables, but pretty mediocre. long board recommended - these waves have zero power. pretty crowded, but friendly enough. the wind is starting to arrive so you should get on it soon if you're gonna do it!
A few years ago the Beastie Boys headlined Coachella. My girlfriend, myself, and our friends, were all super-amped to see them. It had been an amazing day of discovering new bands and we'd just dropped some happy pills to boot. After their first song they started talking about Iraq. . . for like 5 minutes. It was the biggest buzz-kill you could imagine.
if you're looking for something terrible to do - lindamar is for you!
small, crumbly, windy and cold. there are about 8 surfers, 3 SUPs, 2 kayaks, 4 body-boarders and a young couple curled up behind a huge log watching the utter turd-fest.
yeah, lindy was better than expected. the swell is pretty small but there are relatively frequent sets coming in. the water surface is glassy - a nice change. the sun's out and the fish appear to be celebrating. crowds were pretty thin. i took my big blue board out on the ######. there was a 4-pack of dudes catching a nice left. i hung back and caught the sloppier right. had a couple of nice head-highs that held up.
