Month: August 2015

69 yard left on a Saturday (Pacifica 082915)

Wow, so stoked. Surfed 6 days since last Friday and have caught sooo many waves even on less-than-ideal days. The LM of the past seems to have been…

Angled lefts (Pacifica 082815)

Looked smallish and textured with closeouts in the middle so we opted for north of the pumphouse. From land, it didn’t seem like much was happening, but once…

Nonstop rights (Pacifica 082715)

Slept in too long, rushed down to the beach to make it back in time for our meeting. Looked so-so on the south end with choppy highish tide…

Mellow (Pacifica 082615)

Supposed to be fair with some West groundswell filling in. Looked pretty good out without too many closeouts, though smallish. Got my new Xcel 3/2 in the mail…

Small rides and GoPro fun (Pacifica 082415)

Small rides on the south end on a mellow Monday with few people out. Took out the new GoPro Session for the first time with the hand strap…

Kelpy Lefts (Pacifica 082315)

Snoozed for an epic couple of hours this morning just because it was so comfy and it was Sunday. Figured we had missed the good early light offshore…

More lefts! (Pacifica 082115)

Looked kinda crappy out with pretty high WNW winds when we pulled into the main lot. Shortboarders going for closeouts all along the middle sandbar. I was uninspired…

Fun lefts (Pacifica 081915)

Super fun today! It’s been fair with NW windswell the past few days but I’ve had a cold since Friday and through the weekend and finally felt good…

Morning surf check

Lumpy Lefts (Pacifica 081115)

Worked through the weekend and didn’t surf so I was ready to get out today, even though conditions were windswell and small. Windy too but at least it…

Epic 18 waves, plus a shampoo (Capitola 080715)

Wow. Today can only be described as insane. Arrived to overcast skies, a large class out in the lineup and kind of murky-colored water with the kelp farther…

South-end rights (Pacifica 080615)

Some NW windswell starting up again. Looked pretty jumbly from land, but we noticed some good rights happening south. One guy on a blue longboard was running to…

Sweet Tola Rights (Capitola 080515)

So stoked to go down to Tola. Arrived later than we planned. Lucked out with parking on the first try. Lots of summer beach activity and a crowded…

Lefts into the shore break (Pacifica 080315)

Lake Pacifica this morning with a negative tide early. We got down there at lunch and stared at the lake. South end and middle were taken up by…

Tiny (Pacifica 080215)

Slept in to wait for the tide to rise a bit and headed down for a mellow Sunday surf. Not too crowded at the beach since it was…
