Fun Friday

Had to be on the phone early this morning, but made it down around 8:15. Glassy head high waves and a warming trend for the water. Wore a 3/2 for the first time this year. Whoo hoo!

Last Saturday - May 25th

I completely forgot to post over the holiday weekend. So here is last Saturday before the windy part of the weekend:
Decided to go a little later on Saturday so as not to freeze my nads off two days in a row (the water was 57⁰ when I checked the Pier stats early in morning). It was a good call cuz the off shore wind died and it got glassy. The sun was out and the air was warm which made up for the cold water temp. Had a blast and hung around on the beach till i got good and warm. By the time I got home it was cloudy, cool and onshore, which was perfect for an afternoon soccer game in Santa Margarita. Timing is everything.

Finally

After a week of really bad morning winds we finally had a crisp clean morning. Waves were head high and fun. While I only caught a handful of waves a couple of them were gems. FYI - the water was a freezing 57⁰.

Yesterday

Rode down at 10:30. The wind was starting to get on it by the time I paddled out but it was nice to get back in the water. It rained almost the whole time. I really only caught two decent waves. The first one and the last one. Pretty rusty after almost 3 weeks of no surfing. Plus I put on a few pounds in Georgia. Back in control and working it off as fast as I can. It's tougher the older you get.
