Hey, where is everybody??




Full on Victory at Sea conditions. But there are chest to head high waves everywhere. And nobody out!! There will be a -1.6 tide around 4pm which should be really great for walking and exploring. So get out and move this afternoon!!

Have a good one

At first glance




It looks like a jumbled up mess. On second glance, it's only the sets that look that way. Waist to chest with plus size on the sets. Fair shape but the corners are somewhat elusive. This is a short period swell so the waves are right on top of each other. About 25 people out with some of the o-dark thirty crew already coming in.


Have a good one

There's a new sculpture in town




Small and glassy is what's for breakfast this morning. Knee to waist high with some inconsistent chest high sets. Mostly slow rollers that are backing off even with the low tide. About 12 people out.


And now, about that new sculpture. On Monday Rodney


told me about an interesting creative endeavor taking place at the end of 10th street. A large cypress tree came down leaving a large stump in place. So now someone is using a chain saw to transform the stump into a great dolphin sculpture. This photo doesn't do it justice; you need to go see it for yourself.


Have a good one

Still has some size




Clean conditions, calm wind with waist to shoulder high surf. Larger on the sets. Mostly long lines with some pick and choose corners here and there. Sets are closed out. About 25 guys out evenly spaced out across the reef. Luke just got a nice left on his new board and is now waving for me to come out.

Have a good one
