Summary
But it is a heck of a lot better than the other surf spots today, which was marginal in every respect... Fun waves, honestly, but pretty fast, a little mushier than I prefer.
Waves
Quick (but pretty good size) peaks up and down the beachbreak. The point seemed pretty craptastic, not liking the windswell at all. Not super workable, but certainly carvable on the face, had some pretty awesome wrap arounds on some good sized faces. Pretty hard to pull in to but once you're on them they hold up pretty well. Not hollow, a little soft, but dang fun nonetheless.
Crowds
None. There was a kneeboarder (curse you) a sponger (curse you too) and a surfer or two. One guy out when I went out, he went in and I was solo.
Weather
Chilly. Cold. I was wearing a hood and I needed every mm of it. Windswell updwelling really sucks, the water gets so cold.
Forecast
Not. Doesn't look great---windswell, but who knows? Weather looks beautiful the next few days, so we'll see.
Eventful Stuff
Sucky current, but it's decent sized windswell so that shouldn't be a surprise.
Wave of the Day
Lefts. All lefts. Sick chest+ left, steep drop in, no real bottom turn more just a sideish drop, two wraparounds. Not really able to do cutbacks because the power in most of these waves (it's hard to describe) isn't at the top of the wave. Basically fun rides, decently long, but not super rippable waves.
Summary:

6'1" Al Merrick MX
