Lost Boys & Co...

Nothing like a new blade to make it all seem worthwhile...  Bob Gnarly was the first one out this morning at 6:45 to get his new Barahona baptized...

Happy hour is at Shade (next to the Cheesecake Factory) at 5:30pm.  Make sure you wear your woollies.  You'll need them if we don't get a fireplace...

20 miles visibility under clear skies.  Winds were calm at checkout, but the surface was still a bit bumped.  The air temp was 38.3 (yeah, you read that right) and the water was 58.8.  High tide was at 7:29am +5.6' and low tide will follow at 2:24pm -0.7'.  We have a 4.3' west swell out of the west at 271º.  It was 3' to 4' between the bumps and fun enough for the conditions...

It was only a matter of time before Californglish superseded Spanglish.  In all fairness it incorporates a bit of Spanglish as well.  Lesson #1 is included.  Yeah, yeah...

Geez, we've had our share of rain this year, but the real problem half the time has been the wind.  #3 is Sapphire yesterday.  Perfectly good size, clear skies and windier than shit...

Pecking Order Thursday Surf & Culture Report

Lost Boys & Co... W hat we have here (above) is Doc drawing our attention to a hapless paddler who, first, jumped in by the tower and is now somewhere near 4th St.  He then proceeded to get caught in a rip, pushed into an outside set that tested his leash and his resolve. He managed to get back in to shore, but needed a few minutes to gather himself... J umbled conditions from the winds last night and they're predicted to blow again today and this evening.  Currently its anywhere from 6 to 20kts and the sea surface is chopped up.  The air was chilly this morning at 47.5 º  and the water is 62.4 º , but that might drop with these winds.  Low tide at 6:46am +2.1' and high tide follows at 112:17pm +4.2'.  It's a blustery west swell out of 268 º  at 6.6' and it looks like about 4' to 7' with the wind knocking down some of the peaks.  Swell looks strong though and if the winds change it could be good...
