Waitress, A Napkin! Wednesday Surf & Culture Report



Lost Boys & Co...

Lilly Panda Cheeseburger (#1) in her role as alien flower girl for Aubrie and Adam's nuptials.  Dress and mask by Redondo Beachin' Couture...

Aub's herself (#2) and the Barahona CoCo de Aubrieland Model.  She and Adam are due in town Wednesday for a surf and brekky!

Cloudy this morning and almost looked like rain might fall.  Winds were out of the SE by 7kts and changed pretty early to whip things up.  The air temperature was 53.6º and the water can keep getting warmer at 61.5º.  High tide was at 4:58am +4.3' and low tide was at 12:25pm +0.0'.  We have a west swell out of 280º at 4.9' and it was 4' to 6' with some fat, wild, sets coming through.  It was Redondo Vs. Palos Verdes this morning and the Sea Hawks managed to dethrone the Sea Kings 80 to 67.  Turns out the determining heats featured the women!  They surfed strong and powerfully and made the big difference in the score...

Who's behind those Foster/Grants?  It's Jah Morgan checking the tides and getting ready for Saturday evening's celebration...  Alcohol doesn't affect you so much at low tide...

The Sensei Joey and LadysPaine (#4) playing for their a couple of days ago brekky.  After a day of pretty big surf they were ready for some eats...  They also played for Aubrie's wedding ceremony... 

Happy Birthday to LoLa as she celebrates another turn around the hydrogen bomb we call the sun...

Lost Boys & Co... P rofessor, This is a shot taken last week at a secret spot that is less than 30 miles away from you guys. Any guesses?  My buddy Dave sent it from Salta Verde Point on the backside of Catalina. Only accessible by boat or if you know someone with the key. Tip: The guy in the pic is the guy with the key! Sea Wolf... S o, apparently if you decide to leave Avalon and head to the backside you might score on a south swell.  For some reason this place looks like there might be some rocks on the inside.  No indications of that other than the boils following the guy with the key... C loudless skies this morning with 20+miles visibility.  Winds were off to 2.2kts and the sea surface had a residual bump that held all day.  The air temperature was 79.3˚ and the water was 66.4˚, apparently affected by the wind and upwelling.  High tide was at 6:55am +3.9' and low tide will be at 11:46am +2.8' for a little less than a foot differential.  There's a SW swell out of

Lost Boys & Co... S ancho, on this morning's Sruf Familia thread said it best, "Somber rainy day for Jimmy."  J immy Buffett died Friday, September 1.  He was 76 years old and had recently been struggling with health issues.  A Lost Boy of the first order his music was the sound-track for our lives. B ut he might have said it best: "But there's one particular harbor/ So far yet so near/ Where I see the days as they fade away/ And finally disappear." S ail on Jimmy Buffett and we hope on the corner of that one particular harbor there's a wave that you can surf through eternity.  Aloha Jimmy... ✠ "When the surf breaks, we'll fix it" The Professor!!

Lost Boys & Co... W ho's behind those Foster-Grants?  Well, we'll bet that he's NEVER worn a pair of F-G's.  Are those Oliver People's?  Cartier's, Garrett Leight's?  We'll say Tom Ford's and he should be their poster boy.  Yep, it's Jetski in the arena at the US Open.  Looking rather trim in his court-side togs, we're waiting for his description of the action... W e continue our assault on some of the smallest waves ever ridden!  We'll have to check the Guinness book, but we think we're on to something.  So it was ten miles visibility under partly cloudy skies and winds were offshore by 5 to 7kts.  The3 air temp was 63.9º and the water was 70.7º at the ever popular #46221 Santa Monica Buoy.  High tide was at 11:01am +5.5' and low tide follows at 4:52pm +0.7'.  It turns out we observed that low tide and even with the afternoon south wind howling around 10kts, Sapphire still looked fairly smooth.  We had a south swell out o
