Browsing flickr on my lunch I saw they have a page up for Mavs photos. I know lots of stokereporters were out snapping some great shots, many of which are on flickr. Nice to see the flickr blog give a little love to Vonstanger! While we're at it, anyone else want to share their Mavs pics?

Saturday 12pm - Half Moon Bay, poor surfing

Jetty was ARG!tastic from 11-12. Big, angry, jumbled up, double stacked. It was doing it's best Ocean Beach impression. After I packed up, things really mellowed: cleaner, more moderate size. Saw good rides both while I was out and as I was leaving.

Monday 7am - Linda Mar

Teeny at SMLM but some peely little shoulders that I'm hoping will be longboardable. Waist high inconsistent. http://yfrog.com/3i2vlgj

Ever wonder what happens when a surfer's balls/boobs freeze off? Evidently they wash up on shore en mass. These odd natural formations seem to be cause by a mix of wind, temperature, wave action and snowfall. The phenomenon has occurred in several places around Lake Michigan. Swedes recently found very large ice balls washed up on their shore too.

Thursday 4pm - Linda Mar, fair surfing

Holy crap I had a lot of fun at Linda Mar today. Surfed from 10-1 (pic is from 10). Sure, it was inconsistent, but there were Shoulder-HH waves up north an mostly holding up waist-smaller waves for me between taco bell and the pump house. Things picked up as the tide dropped giving the still smallish waves a little more ommph. Still not huge, but pretty fun. A little patience and I nice long log and you've got yourself a day. Sun came out, people in the middle were nice and friendly. Little crowded, especially as the afternoon went on, but I certainly had fun. Feels good to be back!

Wednesday 2pm - Linda Mar, fair surfing

Waves were clean and mellow at LM from 11:45-1:30. Sets were pulling in shoulder high waves, but average was around 2-3ft with some long lulls. Low crowds. Sun was coming out as I left.

Surfed Cowells from 1-3p. Negative tide and moderate to lower crowd made for some beautiful nice long rides. Great sun, friendly people, and ride after ride. 3ft or so and clean. Great longbaording day.
