Sunday Morning Surprise

 FUN!

 Air 38 - Water 46

Aloha

A light dusting...

First snow of the season.

Glad it didn't amount to much.

Saturday morning...

Surfed CM in the rain and some rare December lightning & thunder yesterday. Glad I got some of the long log worthy lines that were wrapping in at Grant St. because this morning they seem to have departed. Small leftovers at Grant St. and sloppy Rocks were all the early AM menu had to offer.
Air 37 - Water 50ish

Regrets...

Checked Grant St. after work yesterday. With only 30 minutes before sunset, I talked myself out of suiting up for it...
Side note: I'm not ready for winter.

Turkey Day "AM" leftovers

NW wind howled all night and knocked the swell down a few pegs but there were two hardy souls who were just fine with that.

Big Chris

Chris and Chris had it all to themselves .

 

Wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving! :)

Enjoyed a Swell lunch, with a side order of Wind.

The low pressure system that moved up the coast delivered us some much needed swell this Thanksgiving Eve. Was stoked to see CM looking pretty good on my drive into work this AM. Got a pre-holiday early release from work and headed over to the Rocks after seeing the tide not jiving with the CM hot spots. Chest to head with OH sets and an offshore wind that was howling but holding up some big faces. Managed to get my fill over a couple of hours in the mayhem. Definitely should have packed the heavy rubber today. For sure the last day of the season for my trusty 4mil. Really started to get chilled around the 2hr mark. Air 39 Water 50ish.

The senior statesmen, eyeing it up.

 

I could use a little bit of this today.....

A warm tropical beach to stroll down... Don't think the mercury made it past 30 here today. Brrr!

A surf-worthy wave would be nice too.  ;)

They're just kids.....

 

Pretty impressive kids. IMHO. 

Some GP Profile Photos

She's currently having a few bumps & bruises tended to. Hoping to have her out in the water in the very near future.

The Bad, the Good and the Ugly......

Early: Weak, high tide, lumpy and side shore.

 

 Mid-day: Dropping tide just starting to let the swell light up the new outside bars and the wind was coming around. Clean 2'- 4'  A-Frames with some long rights coming over from the rocks. Just me and my buddy Rob G. trading wave after wave as there was not another surfer was in sight.  Air 63, water 55, and the 9'6" Corky was killing it. STOKED!

Oh, the UGLY! Last wave of the day, one miss step and POW! Rail to the face.
(No post session photos due to me bleeding all over the place.)

No worries. That session was worth every stitch! :)
