Long One From the Outside (Capitola 122313)

Fun sesh! Not that consistent with some lulls but the set waves were pumping. When they came, a steeper line came angling through. During surf check, we watched…

Start of Some Swell (Capitola 122213)

Slept in (thanks to blackout shades at the Fairfield) and waited for the 12:30 high tide to drop. Surf check showed there was some power behind the forecasted…

Everything in Motion (Capitola 102713)

Blissful (Capitola 102613)

Small Waves, Good Times (Capitola 101913)

Lazy Saturday morning. Slept in at the hotel, got Verve, ate breakfast, waited for the tide to drop to 3′ at 2pm. Magically found parking on our first…

Fishy but Fun (Capitola 101813)

Monday Stoke (Capitola 101413)

Afternoon weekday sesh on a 2′ rising tide with a bit of SSW remaining. So fun. Gorgeous, WARM, summery day, whereas yesterday felt like fall. Water was refreshingly…

Serene Sunday (Capitola 101313)

Sunday morning surf. Got up a bit later than expected but it only took an hour (!) to drive down without any traffic between 7-8am. So nice. The…

Mellow (Capitola 100213)

Ten days out of the water with design work and a trip to NYC. Great to revisit a city that was such a part of our life at…

Otherworldly (Capitola 092113)

Hadn’t surfed in three days so I was determined to get down to Capitola early, even if it meant getting up around 6am on a Saturday. Swell wasn’t…

Headed down to Capitola to catch one last surf before this swell eases, to check out a little studio in the village that’s for rent, and to drop…

Festivus (Capitola 091413)

Swell Continues (Capitola 091313)

Looked smaller on the cam today or maybe we were just randomly seeing the lulls. When we arrived at the beach, a nice set was rolling through and…
