Nice sunrise

The surf is missing in action though. Knee high dribble breaking close to shore. Light NE breeze has put some wrinkle on the water. There must be some stuff swinging in from the south once in a while because the crew (9 of them) are sitting pretty far outside. A wavejet would be the board of choice this morning. Making a wake for everyone else to surf on.

Have a good one aloha

Friday Surf

Good conditions, inconsistent waist to chest surf; larger on the sets. Fair shape but the larger sets are closed out. Plenty of room to move about with only about 16 people out. Mostly concentrated right on the reef. Tide's coming up so that will take the edge off a little. 20th street, however, is pitching some rather sick barrels.

Have a good one

Big wind; moderate swell

Wind is out of the south this morning which is messin' with the surf quality. Waves are still in the waist to chest to shoulder range with poor to fair shape. The sets are closed out but the in-between stuff can offer up a decent ride now and again. Not Del Mar at its finest (wind and swell direction have seen to that) but not it's worst either. So, to all you furloughed federal government workers, you've got nothing else to do for a while so get on out and catch a few waves. It will make you feel better.

Some size!

Waist to chest high and head high on the sets. A NE wind pattern. Fair surface conditions with a slight amount of bump. This is mostly a NW swell with just a tad more west than Del Mar likes. So the shape isn't all that good and the sets are simply closing out cleaning up the line up in the process. There are some peaks and shoulders here and there but you have to hunt them down. About 20 guys out.

It's lobsta season. Boats are out setting their traps and reef free divers are coming up with some keepers. Did you know that the California Spiny Lobster does not have claws? It's true; google it if you don't believe me.

Have a good one
