Wishy-Washy Wednesday Surf & Culture Report



Lost Boys & Co...

So, how foggy was it yesterday?  #1 Tells the story pretty well.  Actually, as the fog started to burn off the waves got better and everyone had a really good time.  This morning we had 10 miles visibility under a hazy sun.  Light winds from the north and the sea surface was glassy with a short roll.  The air temperature was 71.5 and the water was 71.1.  High tide was at 10:43am +4.7' and low tide will be at 3:58pm +1.5'.  We have a rather oblique SSW swell out of 200º at 3.0' and it's about 2' and if you were in the right place, like Larry Dairy you might get a zipper all the way to the pier from Scotty's bubbles...

If you zoom in on Suzi and the Sensei Joey (#2) you can see their matching forearm tattoos.  Very chic...

#3 wouldn't be such a big deal if it weren't for the subject.  YES!  This  is Mr. Christian getting ahead of his board on a grinder at El Porto.  The number of wipeout photos he's featured in is really low... like ONE...

Speaking of El Porto, Bobby Warchola (shown in #4 with Sarah Foley) got rousted by some kook and his girlfriend for looking through his binoculars and taking pictures of pretty girls...  which apparently at El Porto is a crime akin to taking up two parking spaces...  But as things turn, Bobby saw him go to his vehicle and pull out a foamy...  Basically, Bobby's head exploded and he began a rant that's still going on.  He started by telling the guy that he would never be a waterman.  He advised him to take up lawn bowling, golf, checkers or paddle tennis, anything but surfing...  He accused him of being a entitled millennial and that he should leave the beach... immediately...

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!!

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...
