Lost Boys & Co.

Lost Boys & Co... O kay, let's wrap up our Palm Springs Surf Awards party trip with a few more shots from the peanut gallery.  #1) No, it's not the Duke, it's actually Coach Frank channeling a bit of Jurassic energy.  You'd imagine he's taking off at Waimea with that stance, but hey, he was looking for style points! N o Hermosa parking had the crew descending on Sapphire on this chilly this gray morning with a low overcast and onshore winds 5 to 10kts.  Chopped things up quite a bit.  The air temp was 61.2 º  (who knows what the wind chill was!) and the water is 62.1 º .  Low tide was a -0.4' at 9:24am and high tide follows at 4:36pm +4.1'.  It's a 3.3' SSW swell out of 195 º  and it was 2' to 3' in skinny water Sappharua... I n #2 we have our own Parker, hot mini-grom, setting for this jacking crystal blue tube.  You will note that in his mouth he is biting do...

Lost Boys & Co... H ey, even the Coaches got to catch a few.  Here (#1) we have Coach Avery snuggling up to a warm Palm Springs freshwater tube.  Apparently the tubes come in adult sizes as well! H azy sun this morning with 12 miles visibility.  Winds were onshore in the 2 to 5kts range and the water was a bit ruffled.  The air temp was 60.0 º  and the water is 62.2 º and we'll attest to the accuracy of that number!  Low tide was at 8:21am -1.5' and high tide follows at 3:34pm +3.8'.  It's a 3.3' SSW swell out of 209 º .  It's slapping the beach at 3' to 4' and fun if you're patient and not expecting perfection... T his pic (#2) describes the hope one has when the wave jacks up like this in front of you.  "I can make this!"  "It's going to hold up!"  "Can I fit into this tube?"  "I'm going for it!" H e...
