Entry 109 - Close To Beach!


Forecast called for very small surf and mushy but I went out anyway. Yes, it was mushy but, no, it wasn't small. It was workable and fun. Crowded with good friends in the lineup. Caught my fair share of good stuff and shared a couple of waves intentionally and unintentionally along the way. One wave I caught I took off left and was surprised to find myself almost on top of the beach. Fun waves and good mid-February session.


Weather: 53 deg, Partly Cloudy

Entry 108 - Lot Full


There's a first time for everything and today was one of them. Porto parking lot at 7 AM was packed. Had to park in the lot up the hill and jog down. Surf was all mixed up on the inside and kinda mushy. Crazy crowded and not a lot to work with out there for me at least. Surf was weak at times with the occasional wall and closeout. The water even seemed to get colder as the session went on. Some guys got some good rides but I caught my one and called it a morning. When does summer start?!


Weather: 53 deg, Clear Skies
Conditions: Waist High, Bumpy, Mid Tide, Mixed Up
Waves Caught: 1

Entry 107 - Finally, Back In


Finally back in the water after almost a month of BIG swell and travel. Glad to be back in. Was on the mushy side today but still fun. Went out with the Stewart which definitely helped. The Brog would have been too short. Caught a couple of good ones and wished I could have stayed out longer but a good session.
