California Street fun!

Summary
Why go farther North when the waves over at California Street are so fun? That's a rhetorical question, because I certainly am not going to.
Waves
Go Ventura! Other than the water quality looking (literally) like shit, the ocean was imperfect perfection! I lost count of how many fun peaks I had, but there was quite a handful. Conditions played around, but cleaned up occasionally for one or two good fun clean waves.
Crowds
A decent little clump of people out at the point. Not crowded per say, as there are many takeoff points, but certainly busy.
Weather
Santa Ana winds did not apply to Ventura Proper. Winds shifted from slightly onshore to pretty strong. Not as mushy as one might expect given the conditions, and not as textured of ocean either, but conditions certainly were worsened because of it.
Forecast
Maybe the winds will actually turn into Santa Ana's tomorrow, this high pressure system moves further out, so I am truly hopeful. There should be a comparable swell, 3ft+ 14sec hitting the shore, so having some decent size.
Eventful Stuff
I think I had the most fun drop of my life. All I remember is it was a good sized 5ft face, I was a little too deep in so really charging to stay on the outside. Of course I didn't end up making it, but I was in a perfect pocket for about six seconds before it rolled ontop of me. Damn, that was fun.

Re: County Line: Smaller, not as much fun, too many jerks. I'll call him Italian fatso, but this longboarder literally dropped in on every wave he could, didn't say anything ever, and came across as arrogant white trash. I honestly feel sad for this guy, so truly gross that his life epitomizes depressing. Attitude + attractiveness = will never be loved by anyone...ever. Oh, and Mia, Eric, and Steve popped by County in the evening. Unfortunately conditions were pretty bleak by then---this West swell just doesn't make it to County very well. I saw them as I was getting out and driving away and ended up going right back in. There were some fun ones no doubt, but most of them were ninja'd. I guess I could have put up a fight, but my arms felt like mush at this point anyway...
