Unhinged Conspiracy Theory Wednesday Surf & Culture Report



Lost Boys & Co...

Meanwhile, when asked to describe the events in his own words, the Professor, in his role as "Sub-Commandanté Baba Au Ru3mi" (#1) (the 3 is silent), declared:  "Misto delgato con pronta bebe poon taka taka taka.  Bonga tai roomba de quaga na wommi.  Et figgy, had figgy, shwo figgy de nunco emblaniez.  Sha zoot."

Later he is shown with Commandanté Bacallao (#2) in front of the Pride Tower, demonstrating that a little Cuban and a little Portagee can do great things, IF they have the paint...  Outside the weather was partly cloudy and the winds were trying to blow onshore at 5 to 7kts.  The sea surface was cluttered with windswept debris which included Doc ?, the Professor and Zacky-Boy.  The air temperature was 63.3º and the water was 64.2º and unless your body temp was below 60º it felt chilly.  High tide was at 9:39am +3.9' and low tide followed at 2:16pm +1.9' to no perceptible improvement.  We have a SSW swell out of 190º at 4.3', but the wind was knocking it down and turning the whole thing to mush.  Might be better tomorrow if the wind holds off for a few hours...

On the Tower of Pride (#3) with Tarsan, Doc ?, a Lifeguard and the Professor.  We are not counting the people on the pier  Tarsan took this photo with an ordinary Leica spy camera attached to his phone with duct tape and rubber bands...  What do you mean you can't find the lifeguard?

"Surfing Sleds Of Famous South Bay Surfers" (#4)  We have this '57 Chevy Bel-Aire Wagon with a trio of Kris Hall's sticking out the back.  Kris either owns it or stole it and put his blades in the back.  Still a bitchin' whip...

Maybe a report mañana, but don't hold your breath.  Heading out to Idaho for a trip to Anne Morrison Park and a session at the standing wave there and a haircut with the almost-as-famous-as Karg-but-more-famous-in-Idaho salonista, Aubrie.  Back on Monday with more foolishness...

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
