Summary
Given how small the waves are, this surf was amazingly refreshing and fun. There were some decent shaped, small sized but peaky waves. Zuma is a safe bet if the swell is jarbled, because something is working somewhere on it. There were some decent cross/offshore winds, I think the leftovers of a light Santa Ana flow from yesterday.
2/31 complete
Waves
Decent. Usually not much time for more than drop, race, snap, but even those were pretty fun. The waves were a little choppy as the windswell giving us these is pretty local, but nonetheless quite doable.
Crowds
Surprisingly there were at least a hundred out up and down Zuma. I guess it's not surprising being fall and all in Malibu, plus I went quite a bit later than I usually do. No issue with crowds, though, as there was plenty of room for everyone.
Weather
Beautifully sunny, relatively warm, some light cross/off (just beginning to turn more onshore as I was leaving).
Forecast
Looks pretty tasty. What with a full moon tomorrow and all, the little 3-5ft S swell should prove to be quite fun in the coming days. I might head up to Jalama tomorrow morning with a friend, it's up in the air but there is certainly some swell up North and conditions are looking pretty optimistic. I am hopeful.
Eventful Stuff
Some old guy on the beach had a heart attack (guessing). An ambulance and half a dozen emergency vehicles. Excessive show of force Malibu...
Wave of the Day
Ah, there were a lot of fun little rights. I would have to say my WOTD was a waist high right, drop, race, see the closeout coming so I snapped the face in the perfect spot, ended up on top of the wish wash shooting to shore. Pretty awesome.
