Entry 022 - Jumbled or Steep?


Yep, thought it was gonna be a good day but the current was nuts. Started at 40th and ended up in front of the Chevron plant.  Water was nice though and I'm thinking its almost time to ditch the booties and gloves.  Went with new earplugs today and they worked out great.  The surf started out jumbled, inconsistent and steep but as low tide approached, things got a little better - or maybe it was just my eventual location.  Either way, caught two nice ones and almost handled to should-head high waves but I couldn't get the board moving they way I wanted.  When things are steep at Porto, the 9' Stewart just doesn't cut it.
