Thoughtful Thursday Surf & Culture Report

February 26, 2026

Lost Boys & Co... W atch out who you hang out with in high school because you might find yourself skiing with them like 50 years later. Yeah, it's Tim, Frank and Brian up at Brundage causing problems wherever they go. To their credit they did help those folks who ran off the road, but everyone else would say something like, "Oh you guys again…" B eautiful morning in the South Bay, with good visibility under a hazy sun. Winds are out of the west by 1 to 2kts and the sea surface is smooth. The air is 59.6 º and the water is 59.9 º. With a little sun we might see it hit 60 again. High tide early at 4:34am +5.3' and low tide follows at 12:27pm -0.8'. There's a west swell out of 261 º at 3.0'and it's 3' to 4' and could be a fine day to exercise your chops. O ur sympathies to Clarke who lost his sister this week. He needs a hug! "When the surf breaks, we'll fix it" The Professor!!

Wrecking Crew Wednesday Surf & Culture Report

February 25, 2026

Lost Boys & Co... S o, we'd had a good day skidding around the slopes and we were feeling pretty saucy when we came around this corner and saw this car that had launched itself over the edge of the road and was trying to bend to gravity and roll the recast of the ay down the embankment. We spun around and leaped out offering our assistance. Now Herkimer, shown here (#1) standing in the doorway was dead set on going down with the ship. The Professor suggested he get out of the vehicle and he responded by saying "Says who?!" The Professor said, "Okay jump in the car and get on with your own bad self!" Along with Herkimer was his girlfriend Bambi, two dogs and their ward, 4 year old Louis. Shortly the fire department showed up and we took our leave, but we left them pretty disoriented and a bit wacked. Turns out Herky had passed out, gone across the road and blew over the edge. Better have that checked Herk… M eanwhile at home it was ha...

Impossible Major Appliances Monday Surf & Culture Report

February 23, 2026

Lost Boys & Co... I s an air conditioner considered a major appliance? L ooked like an excellent day in the South Bay this morning. Lola on the other hand was getting off the mountain (#1)after shusbooming down the mountain and keeping up wid da boys. Low was 54.5 and it was about 57 at checkout. The water was 58.6 and let's hope a little sunshine brings it back up to the 60.0 mark. Low tide was at 8:17am +0.62' and high tide was at 2:39pm +2.46' which is a mere bump. It's a west swell out of 275 at 2.3'. Ankle biters my dear Watson… Snow mañana, so we'll be keeping track of the weather and let you know how the rest of the world winters!

Tomorrow Land Thursday Surf & Culture Report

February 19, 2026

Lost Boys & Co... O nce again we have ventured the frozen or semi-frozen north to do some sliding around on the snow. But the surf still calls and here's what we gleaned from our mostly reliable sources on the ground. S even miles visibility under cloudy skies with some evidence of rain. Winds are onshore, scheduled to get fierce during the day, 7 to 10th at checkout. The air temp was 48.0 and the water is 60.4. High tide was at 9:55am +5.2' and low tide follows at 4:19pm -0.2'. It's a west swell out of 272 at 5.6' and that translates to 6 to 8' and trying to find organization among the chaos… B ack to curling before it disappears for four years.

Big & Wild Wednesday Surf & Culture Report

February 18, 2026

Lost Boys & Co... Y esterday... Yesterday might have been the best day we've ever seen at the Avenues. Not the biggest, mind you, but absolutely the best consistent shape we've ever seen. It immediately brought to mind Puerto Escondido and the tubing shorebreak that it's famous for. (#1.) Was Second Pole Burnout and there were probably 15 guys out. Despite the horrid water quality there were just some folks who couldn't let it go... T hat was yesterday. Today, after a night of winds sometimes reaching almost 50mph, the ocean is stormy and wild. The good news is that it's chewing up the beach at a rapid rate, scalloping the berm (#2) and you could almost see some of the sand bars it was creating. Despite the wind the air temperature was 51.0 º and the water is 60.8 º . High tide was at 9:16am +5.7' and low tide will be at 3:53pm -0.6'. It's a 11.2' west swell out of 274 º and who knows how big some of...
