Surf: 4-7ft. 10ft @ 16s WNW, 308\u00c2\u00b0<\/p>\n

Woo! Another solid day in Santa Cruz. <\/p>\n

The waves were swinging wide of the point with a little bit of warble, but still managed to hold up all the way from the point to 38th. I got one ride so long with so many swoops and cutbacks that my legs were burning by the time I kicked out. Woohoo!<\/p>\n

Chris got a beautiful big wave at the point too. I saw a big arc of spray coming off one of his turns and heard the lineup hooting for him the whole way.<\/p>\n

After a few waves, some waiting in the rain, and one good ragdoll wave by me, we decided to work the smaller inside waves at 38th. I wanted to work on some noseriding moves. Close, but needs more work. <\/p>\n

I’ve also been thinking about my cutbacks and how I need to work on staying in the pocket a little better. I’m certainly better about seeing where I am in relation to the curl and trying to correct, but in these larger waves I’m not really committing to a cutback. It’s more of a bottom turn-stall to get back in position. I’m worried the wave is just going to fold over on me so I’m out-running it half the time. The other half I’m very slowly trying to cut back to get back in position. <\/p>\n

Only solution: more practice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
