Surf Reports by Righteousdewd

Totally fucking blown-out. For those of us who use bay conditions as a proxy for wind at OB, this kind of report is helpful.

I'm calling this spot other-other. I went in search of anything today and found something! It had an alkalai bouquet. This was due to it being served extra-chilled. The terroir was detectable with occasional sediment. It was zippy on the front, but flabby on the finish. Fortunately my palate had been clean for weeks, if not months. So anything not named Charles Shaw was going to be appreciated. I paired it with something more substantial, but I think a fish would be ideal.

It probably would not be worth the distance during our city fall harvest. I wouldn't even call this the Barbera that you drink while waiting for the Barolo. But at this time of year it was akin to the Beaujolais release.

My longboard leash string broke over the weekend. This is the narrow-hole-through-the-fin-box variety. Not the plug and bar.

Rant - Tennis elbow?

I tweaked my elbow surfing in February and it hasn't gone away. It has been tolerable for the last month. But I started taking my paddleboard out last week and my elbow got worse. I just did the dumbest thing one can do on the internet, I self-diagnosed an ailment. But the symptoms fit the tennis elbow description.

I thought the outside looked promising. It turned out to be crossed up in the haze.

Fine here is a report from Sunday afternoon around 2:30, a few hundred yards off the ferry building (sorry if that's too specific). The wake from the redneck rocket boat created something that might have vaguely approximated surfing. Or at least a small amount of glide under the paddleboard. I promptly gave the asshole driving that thing the finger. The tourists did not seem to understand my displeasure.
