RETRO POST for Sunday the 4th
Summary
Not bad, but not great. Tides have been sucky these past few days.
Waves
Initially the morning was pretty dang fun. The first few waves were good shape, steep, fun shoulders. Unfortunately after about fifteen minutes as the tide progressively dropped, the waves mushed up and water conditions chopped up.
Low tide at DB is usually mushy crap, but the afternoon was actually as opposite as you can get. I gave big blue a chance to prove itself, and it did not fail. Waves out by a far out sandbar were pretty walled up, but super steep, nice little barreling shoulders. Quick, but super fun.
Crowds
A handful in the early morning, and a bigger handful in the late morning.
Weather
Cold, chilly, breezy offshores all day.
Forecast
Small Monday, big Tuesday, big Wednesday, good conditions throughout.
Eventful Stuff
None.
Wave of the Day
Afternoon sessions waves were ridiculously fun. Steep slabs, pretty much straight shots (though if I were on a more maneuverable board there would have been some sick cutbacks...)
