New board by OB shaper, John Schultz. 8' x 22 3/4" x 2 3/4". Slight hull entry with soft rails in front. Slight vee with hard down rails in back. Took it out today for a test drive. Paddles like a Cadillac. Catches waves like crazy. Holds in the face during the initial drop. But it spins out on the bottom turn. Have to work on the fin placement, I guess.

Well, it was quite a bit bigger than it looked where I paddled out. Strangely easy paddle out yielded sitting in the line-up dodging ten foot walls. They were really thick and heavily textured. Super hard for me to figure out. I ended up getting out and walking to a smaller section. Still solid head high and still tricky to read. But got a couple. Looked like some few were having a good day. Have to say just fair because of how shifty and weird it was.

I worked from home today and watched out of the window one of the greatest days of surfing I've ever seen at OB. And me sidlelined with a fever. Hope y'all had fun. Bastards.

Well that was ... interesting. It was marginally OK when I paddled out at 3:30. Deteriorated rapidly. Super duper current situation as well. Got a few.

Saturday 4pm - Ocean Beach, fair surfing

The wave conditions were fair. Sunny, glassy, super shifty and hard to line-up. My personal performance was poor minus. Is there a worse rating I can give my performance? Like Shite minus? Kook minus? Flail minus? Oh well, I got some exercise and got rinsed out. Still stoked.
