That’s not to say there weren’t some fun waves out there. We had some occasional doozies, but most waves were fun drop ins that mushed out shortly after. Josh, Peeb, Sean and I definitely made the best from what was on tap.

Sean and I also ran into Kuch from Harbour Surf Shop and his lovely ladyfriend in the parking lot when we were getting out. They were heading out for some longboarding action.

No nudity this week.
