Peter and I met up for a Dawn Patrol sesh at Sunset Blvd. It was my first time out since all of the rain so I was looking for a pretty mellow morning, and that is exactly what we got. The crowd was small and we had plenty of room to move around. The waves…
We had a good morning run today with a nice sized tuesday crew: CW, Mike, Peter, Chrissy and me. The waves were clean and mostly waist to chest with bigger sets coming through. There were plenty of overhead waves this am. The bigger waves were walled to closed out, but we were finding all sorts…
This is my favorite board, my trusty log. It goes by several names: The Red Scare, The Red Menace, The Comrade… but Jeff took a ride or two on it and named it “Kruise-chev”, and now that’s the name it is most often called. The shaper was a dude named Ryan Horlacher for a company…
Shortly after I got Kruisechev, I had finished a ride, and was getting ready to paddle back out when a rogue wave came through and knocked everyone off their boards. While I was inside the washing machine my board hit the ocean floor and my fin snapped off. I was never able to find it. …
It was a pretty mellow weekend, we made it out both days for back to back morning sessions. Its that time of year when the water and the air are about the same temperature, and its so nice to not have to wear a wet suit. We took out the logs and got some good…
Although it sounds like a pair of Villains from an old James Bond movie, it was actually just Peter and I paddling out into the glass early this morning. I was riding Kruise-chev, my trusty single fin log. Peter was breaking in a new board that he just picked up: the Scorpion. It is a…
The cold is gone and after a week long dry spell, I finally got back out in the water today…and it was awesome. I took my Harbour Quatro. (I didn’t trust my paddling power after a cold and a week of no surfing.) Aaron brought comrade Kruisechev. (We questioned his board choice so close to…
Super mega fun surf session today at El Porto. The waves weren’t huge, but they were fun and constant. I can’t even tell you how many rides I caught today (a score? a baker’s dozen?), but man was I beat when we called it quits. The waves were these little, but strong 2-3+ foot rollers…
Josh and I paddled out for a session at Sunset this morning. Conditions were pretty much a reset of yesterday, except it was a lot more crowded. Pretty calm, clean, slightly textured 2s and 3s with bigger sets rolling through every 15 or 20 minutes. The waves were a bit more consistent today, and on…
Peter and I paddled out at Sunset blvd this am around 7. It was a barely negative low tide (-.4 ft ) which is usually great for Sunset. The waves were mostly slow rolling 2s and 3s, sometimes less. Bigger sets would come through every 20 minutes or so and they were a lot of…
