Thanksgiving Eve Wednesday Surf & Culture Report



Lost Boys & Co...

Here we have Laurie Armor (#1) at Baja Hermosa Malibu building up some real speed to make this excellent corner.  So often we dis Hermosa as being walled up and impossible, but when it's on there can be some really great waves.  This session about  week ago demonstrated how good it can get...

After all that buildup it's foggy this morning with barely a quarter mile visibility.  Hard to tell if it's drizzling or raining or just foggy.  Winds are light out of the NW by 3kts and the sea surface is obscured.  The air is 60.0º and the water is 59.9º.  High tie is at 6:29am +5.5' and low tide will be at 1:23pm +0.5'.  We have a south swell out of 188º at 2.3' and it's 2' when you can see it...

CHECK IT OUT!
Today, Wednesday the 27th we'll be having our own private showing at the VEFA Art Gallery for the "Art Of Surf" exhibit.  Suzi will be our guide and docent and fill us in on all of the particulars.  Tour starts at 1pm and will probably last about an hour.  Tell your surf buds that they don't want to miss this opportunity!  The Gallery is located at 21825 Hawthorne Blvd. Torrance, CA 90503.  For the geographically challenged it's next to the Chic-Fil-A between Carson and Sepulveda.

Looks like the S&CR will most likely be taking the morning off to prepare mentally for dinner.  A better reason is that Brother's will be taking one of their rare holidays off and will be closed.  But don't despair, they'll be back on Friday!

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...

Lost Boys & Co... Out on the Gulf of Mexico riding some interesting three footers in Freeport.  So here we are with the Maharishi after riding the outside at the "Octagon" jetty.  South wind is blowing at 10kts and it's bit textured, but it was fun and a great workout!
