PM Doublesun

Surf: Waist-Chest High, less consistent. Yay! Freckled and happy. I got to watch a nice looooong sunset and catch a few waves. Wave quality was better in the am but I’m more than happy to doublestack my stoke. I saw both Chris and Aaron get some nice rights. Crowd was crowded, but mostly friendly. Saw [...]

Warm sun!

Surf: Waist-Chest High. Consistent. Look at that blue sky. Blue! And all of a sudden it’s summer in San Francisco. The parking lots were packed and I found myself in the very foreign situation of walking barefoot across hot sand. Yup, hot sand. Just like a beach anywhere else in August. Waves were fun, but [...]

Junky Surf, Pretty Weather

Surf: Knee to Waise high, junky. Yeah, it was junky. Yeah the wind was on it and warbling it up. But hey, it was pretty dang fun. Poor wave quality but def a good time. Like most Linda Mar summer days, it favored those with foam. One spot breaking pretty well but Chris and I [...]

Wild Wildlife

Surf: Knee-Waist High. Junky. Pretty low expectations once again exceeded. Spent about 4 hours paddling around catching waves here and there, running in to friends. In the last hour or so of the session I was looking out to sea and saw a pretty big something jump pretty far away from us. Something big with [...]

Sunset Monday

Surf: Knee high with some pretty strong sideshore winds. Rideable. Snuck out for another afternoon session before the brunt of this week’s work is expected to hit. There was a small group just tearing up this peeling wave at the middle of the beach. Nose riding, all that fancy stuff. I drifted more to the [...]

Another Sunny Friday

Surf: Knee high waves, inconsistent and a little crumbly. Work this week was pretty brutal. After finishing my project I race out the door and on to the waves. Little crowded out there but catchable and offering a few good rides here and there. The mellow waves this summer has offered up are proving some [...]

That’s more like it

Surf: Waist high, surprisingly well shaped given the wind, warm water FULL of jellies. Headed out after work with low expectations. Water was still warm and the waves had shaped up since the day before. Plenty of fun rides. Lots of nice little lefts and sections to chase. I managed to somehow park myself in [...]

Sunset

Surf: Waist high waves. A few chest high sets. Warm water. It’s amazing how warm water can really brighten up a surf session. Had some pretty low expectations for this post work surf, but man was it worth it. The air and water were so warm I skipped the booties for a barefoot ride. It [...]

Big Jetty Sunset

Surf: 4-6ft, some larger sets. Little bit choppy, but surprisingly clean for the size and the howling winds elsewhere. Left work early to sneak in a little sunset surfing. The sunset was beautiful. Big gold waves moody clouds. The surf was big. I tend to get skittish around 4ft on the longboard. It’s a lot [...]

Sunset at the Jetty

Surf: 2-3ft, Inconsistent, Mushy but smooth. Gear: 9’0 Stewart LSP? After wrapping work early, I decided to go for my first double session and catch a few waves at the jetty. Conditions were a little weak, but at that point, so was I. I haven’t done double sessions before (especially after getting up at 5am), [...]
