oh snap!
offshores!!!
but... the waves are still crrraaapppy.
Geeez.
A couple kernals and mushy ramps and half-second sweet spots.
Mostly warbled, mopey, wonkish funky mediocrity.
Not that paddling and catching waves in the ocean isn't a total, unabashed blessing. cause it is.. but.. the idealist in each of us holds out hope for the sight of offshore-licked, head-high, funnelling inner-bar A-frame perfection with just a few friends.
A few drops and things and stuff this morn.
A tad smoother than yesterday morning but more good rides on offer yesterday with the meatier swell.
October is the new July.

Posted by: bagel at October 28, 2005 10:53 AMooo. shoulda finished that thought. but the waves just weren't that great.
Posted by: lerm at October 28, 2005 10:55 AMstayed non-great mid-morning. so many different kinds of waves it's like a lottery. a pumpy wall, some lurchy wave puzzles. nice to see spindrift.
Posted by: kloo at October 28, 2005 11:02 AMGot fun last night- waaay better than it looked...glad to see most people passed...
Posted by: Blah Blah at October 28, 2005 11:08 AMSo whats up for the weekend?!? More shitty waves!!?!?!
Posted by: depressed in SF at October 28, 2005 11:13 AMHey 3to5 - what's up in Boulder Creek? It seems like the entire town is selling out. I was looking at Craigslist for houses in SC--just a hobby. Almost every listing was in BC.
Posted by: Dennis at October 28, 2005 11:19 AMFirst time out in a week last night, I've been dealing with a shoulder injury, doc said to go surf! I was happy to hear that. I think I'm using the fish too much, I need to start using the normal short board more and use el pescado on mush point waves and Sloat only.
Posted by: Mexi at October 28, 2005 11:20 AMThis weekend is Party Weekend. Who gives a shit how the waves will be. Spend your time working on your costume.
Posted by: friend #1 at October 28, 2005 11:27 AMI have my costume aleady done and ready to go...

Posted by: Hb at October 28, 2005 11:38 AMI surfed the north end in the dark this morning (first out, zero dark thirty) and thought I got some pretty smokin lefts....maybe I just had my head up my butt.

Posted by: Eric at October 28, 2005 02:50 PMLast winter, I started to believe it was always good. Perhaps due to some long term weather changes or something. I was amazed by how good it was. This winter so far I'm starting to believe the opposite... not just in SF either... A little driving hasn't helped much. But still early. Hopefully soon.

Posted by: Q at October 28, 2005 03:29 PMThat excruciatingly dull "Pez" post has been there for months-- at the very top of your site. E, you'r clearly you're too busy or not into updating it, maybe do something else with the space. What's up bro?, you're so completely on it otherwise..
Posted by: on the positive side, you do a great job at October 28, 2005 03:30 PMi agree its been a long time. ill suggest a tide chart or one of the brigade's posts..
-ready to go home now
Posted by: bagel at October 28, 2005 04:07 PMtide chart! and not the kind with the damn ebb and flow.
Posted by: steamwand at October 28, 2005 04:13 PMdoes anyone know where loon is? did his wife deliver?
I honestly think the photog on the inside went over the falls in that vid clip "Q" just posted. Just murderous! God, T-Poo isn't a wave -- it's a God-forsaken slab of undulating wet cement!!!
Posted by: Monkey Milk at October 28, 2005 04:27 PMguys help me

Beware of sea monsters
Posted by: at October 28, 2005 07:00 PMso here the thing...you break into my truck, reach your hand into my board bag and then only take 2 of the 3 fins off the board while dinging it...well you suck. why do people continue to take things that are of no value to anyone but me, leave them there ya arseholes. jeeze.
Posted by: zebra at October 28, 2005 07:17 PMI had had freind years ago that was sick of breakins at our local beach.He taped open razor blades at key areas near the radio,door handles,and around his camper shell door.Sure nuf the next day a thiefman was running away with a trail of blood behind.The MDC police found him behind a bush bleeding. Thay assumed he had been in a knife fight so he got arrested.Ha
Posted by: toneman at October 28, 2005 07:46 PMJust dont forget where you taped the razors.
I think today was the worst I have ever read on this cool ass surf site. People making fun of an African woman with her beautiful child living in a harsh world. People throwing up lame owned pictures. People complaining about how the surf was even though they go to go out and play in the ocean today when others, including me, didn't have a chance to surf. People posting random girl pics for no reason (and yes Kaisers pics always hit at the right time, he's got it down).
Sucks because E started it off with some sweet schwacks by the best and it dissolved into a turd.
Oh well. I think the 3to5 post summed it up and made it all worthwhile.
Surf. Rip. Skate. Score. Dig. Burn. Feel. Listen. Smile. Surf.

Miami fuccing rocks! even after this hurricane, everyone is so nice, friendly, and it is warm and like a Corona commercial. I have realized, after coming on this blog, and living in Cali for a long time, that Cali and its people suck ass.

Posted by: Blah Blah at October 29, 2005 01:57 PMGreetings from Todos Santos! The waves are sweet, the light winds come up late and the water is 76 degrees. From what I can put together, I’m sorry to have missed that whole day of Kdalle worship posts. Personally, I’ve decided to devote an entire chapter in my book to him entitled, “Sitting outside, licking his eyebrows.” That twin fin longboard really sounded interesting, especially considering the general character of our local break. I’d expect speed down the line with considerably more drive than a single fin. And then, of course, there’s the looks you get on your way through the bone yard. Cheers.

Posted by: bbr at October 29, 2005 03:30 PMAhh the daylight savings rocks... More time to surf before heading to cubicle jail.
Posted by: mofo at October 30, 2005 12:08 PMWas out surfing near low tide today, and saw this longboarder coming down the line. Nearly ran me over. Kook. Short, skinny dude riding a 9+ ft long Stewart white longboard with blue rails. Anyway, at the end of his wave he kicks out and nearly kills someone with his projectile board!
Then kharma came around. The leash snapped, the board released, and BVB had to swim for it. Dangerous board ditching can have consequences.
