AI Was NOT Used In The Production Of This Wednesday Surf & Culture Report



Lost Boys & Co...
Gray this morning with a severe case of June Gloom (Juneas Gloomis).  But it didn't last all morning and by 9am the sun was on it's way out.  Zach hit it early and stayed late (#1).  Winds were light out of the west and the sea surface was textured but not chopped.  The air temperature was 61.3º and the water is 60.6º, disappointingly chillier than earlier in the week.  Low tide at 6:20am -0.4' and high tide will be at 1:18pm +3.3'.  It's a SSW swell out of 200º at 3.3' and it was a solid 3'.  Doc found all of the corners this morning, which leads us to...

How many times have you needed a square hole instead of a round one?  We were gifted this multi-tool and suddenly the world was filled with right angles and perpendicular cuts.  Look closely (#2) and you can see our brain being sucked through this square black hole.  We always thought it would be more whirl-pool like...

Red Car Wednesday Surf & Culture Report

Image
Lost Boys & Co... T here's a spot outside of about 14th St. that they call "Cable Cars."  It only breaks when it's huge and then it might almost qualify as a tow-in spot.  So to begin with it should be called "Red Cars" because that's what they sank there to create an artificial reef.  The Pacific Electric Railroad was going the way of the dinosaurs and they had all of these Red Cars gathering dust.  They sank a bunch of these, in what could be considered a relative underwater desert, then monitored the reef to see if it attracted fish.  Well it did and it inspired J.G. and his crew to consider larger more stable reefs.  It wasn't long before worms ate away most of the wood, but for years the steel wheels looked like pick-up-sticks on the bottom. W e could have used a reef this morning, or more accurately a swell. It was partly cloudy and visibility was 10 miles.  Winds were out of the south 1 to 3kts freshening to 15kts by noon.  Lots of bump...

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... H ere we have Doc on his soap box preaching t...
