Things Are Closer Than They Appear Thursday Surf & Culture Report



Lost Boys & Co...

When you're ready for your burrito nothing like a mere-shmere screen is going to get in your way.  But honestly staring at Yoshi while he's making your "Soul Surfer with pinto and bacon" isn't going to make it go faster.  Of course unless you look up and see the puppy looking so forlorn... that works as long as you're not Kristi Noem...

Then of course the surf this morning was a bit smaller than yesterday.  It was 7 miles visibility under overcast skies with a lively south wind blowing out of 180º.  A bit of texture on the surface.  The air was 57.3º and felt like 48º, according to our mayor (like he should know), and the water at the buoy is 59.4º which would be wonderful if it were true.  Still feels like 58.  Low tide is at 11:50am -0.2'.  A west swell out of 272º at 2.6' and it was 2' to 3'.

Of course we have our favorite director Anna Burns showing two of her films at the Dana Point Film Festival.  On Friday she's premiering her new movie "Beyond Normal" and one of her older flicks.  Starts tomorrow and goes through Sunday check out their web site at www.danapointfilmfestival.org!

Teach A Fish To Fly Friday Surf & Culture Report

Lost Boys & Co... Wouldn't it be nice to have some surf to report about?  The simple answer is "yes."  But, and it's a big BUT, we're going to forge ahead and give you the particulars anyway.  5 miles visibility and pretty hazy conditions although it looks like the sun is trying to melt the haze.  Winds were offshore by 1 to 3kts. and the sea surface is smooth.  The air temp was 64.5º and the water is 65.8º.  High tide is at 10:14am +5.6' and low tide follows at 4:55pm +0.6' (Maybe good for a walk on the hard sand.  Don't step on a bee.  Been lots of them on the shallow sand.)  SSW swell out of 206º at 2.3' and it was half of that on the beach.  Just to whet your appetite we've included this shot of the Professor in Nicaragua at "Soupbowls", or "Chicken Soup", or "Noodles".  They were all lefts... Some of you know that the Professor has sparred with some health issues recently.  He submitted this (Attachment) t

We Came On Different Ships, But We're All In The Same Boat Thursday Surf & Culture Report

Lost Boys & Co... F ound these cool sweatshirts (#1) at Spyder on the Plaza.  They show all of the cool South Bay surf spots and wave magnets.  We managed to get these cool women to show off the threads... H eavy overcast and not quite 7 miles visibility.  Winds were onshore by 2 to 4kts and the surface was generously textured.  The air was 58.5º and the water is 58.5º.  Overcast, windy and chilly, this isn't sounding great is it?  Low tide is at 11:46am +0.6' and high tide follows late at 6:44pm +4.3'.  It's a SSW swell out of 212º at 2.3' and that's about how big it was with a few fatter outsides. F or those of you who knew Brian Sullivan his funeral will be held at St. Lawrence Church at 1pm on Saturday.  Still can't quite believe he's gone... ✠ "When the surf breaks, we'll fix it" The Professor!!
