Mediocrity...

RETRO FOR MONDAY 2/2
Summary

Not as good as I was hoping, but not a bad way to start a week.
Waves
Pretty weak and small, as well as pretty high tide. Unfortunately this ended up having good sized rocks protruding everywhere, making getting a good ride pretty dang hard.
Crowds
Few people, but it was surfable amid a long lull down here, so there were longboarders and shortboarders alike hoping for a decent ride.
Weather
Sunny and a little breezy. Nice but certainly not making up for the poor surf.
Forecast
Looks pretty mediocre for the week. Small and stormy. Yuck!
Eventful Stuff
Nothing. Steve and Mia came and looked at the surf but didn't go out (wtf!) until the afternoon.
Wave of the Day
Once again, nothing spectacular. A right where I ended up almost smashing my board on the rock. I bailed so I wouldn't, but I had a cutback and a nice little whack-a-face-early closer.

Summary:
County Line, Ventura County
6'1" Al Merrick White Dove
6:30-8:45
1-3ft, occasional bigger sets, shortish period
1+/5
