weekend surf

weekend surf update time.

Saturday - uninspiring longboard session at 38th. Pretty small and not that consistent. Neither lefts nor rights that great, but I mostly took lefts. Should've gone leashless.

Sunday - wind was a blowin but made the most of it and hit up Rockaway from about 3 to 5. Definitely the best bet around that area. Linda Mar packed like sardines and small, Montara empty and blown out, Rockaway about 10-15 guys on the northern end getting some good ones. Surfed my 8'10 vernor. Contemplated between it and the 6'9 leaf but longboard was the right call. Got some great waves! As said before I can go left about 3x better than right. So I got some good walled up lefts, flyin' on those! Definitely a pleasant surprise out there to get such a good session in, wasn't expecting to get much on the drive over. New wetsuit is a toaster oven, not even the faintest bit of shivering out there and the water is icy cold now, and the wind was blowing frosty too. xcel 5/4/3 w/ built in hood. hot.

tomorrow supposed to be huge victory at sea out there. I'm in Mt View tonight so I'll head to Linda Mar tomorrow morning and see if there's any possibility of any sort of waves in that type of condition -- nothing like a little first hand research.
