    That looks fun.

    Day three at NBs and it had the heavies today. Just a touch bigger than Friday, but way more umph. Had two waves. The first took me to the beach. Ran up the reef a few hundred yard and popped back out. Got another to the beach and decided to call it a day. I'm becoming fond of the sidewalk when it is just too wonky for the size up north.

    Conditions improve tomorrow. A big swell hits Wednesday.

    Yesterday evening was great. 6-8 foot, glass and a mellow crowd. Had to do some home chores so I made it down around 2 pm. Great fall afternoon
    Keep it coming

    I always tell people that October and November are just the best in San Diego. Great weather, surf gets going and the tourists are gone for the most part. Locals Summer for sure. Car is in the shop getting major work done to prep her for all the winter trips to Mammoth and Tahoe, so no surf for me today or tomorrow. Wednesday should be good.
    Never in U.S. history has the public chosen leadership this malevolent. The moral clarity of their decision is crystalline, particularly knowing how Trump will regard his slim margin as a “mandate” to do his worst. We’ve learned something about America that we didn’t know, or perhaps didn’t believe, and it’ll forever color our individual judgments of who and what we are.

    +1 on the best time of year.

    Swell dropped considerably. Headed. Roth. Glaaaaaassssy. A fair bit under gunned on the 6.0. Couple feet OH, fast, thick and heavy. The ledge was a ledge. Good times. Can't wait to get my step up back.

    Wednesday looks big.

    OB offshore and a little overhead. Super clean, shoulders/arms are still on fire. HyptoKrypto starting to work with enough juice.

    Edit: Damn, Wednesday IS gonna be big.

    Good tip, thanks. I need to get out more and explore some of those nooks south of here.

    But, plenty of fun up here today. Outside VFW was a couple feet overhead/maybe just scratching DOH and clean, lined up, and offshore this morning. Big thick slabby barrels on the inside bar too for those not feeling the long paddle.

    Been quite the run; shoulders are past numb and I've definitely found the limit of my 6'6". Might be time to invest in one of those cool-guy big boards.

    I have not seen it today. Looks thumping on the steamers cam. Prepping the house for guests. Oh well, tomorrow. I had a window yesterday and found some fun head high waves. It was kind of fun surfing on such small waves. Gave no fucks about getting caught inside.

    Walked the dogs past the local beach break today, that faces more south and it was just these BIG walls. So I said, errr, not today. Tomorrow looks like it is smaller, so I will give it a go then.

    It dropped pretty quickly up here. Surfed this morning and ended up heading up the coast. Rode my 7.6. Not very fond of that board, but it gets you in. DOH with some plus this morning. 4 or 5 of us out. Cleaaaaaaan. Surfed again this evening, a little closer to town, and it was much smaller. 3'OH or so. Enjoyed the 6.0 this evening very much.

    What a run. 11 sessions in 11 days. Surf is back up to solid size today. Summer is forgotten. Arms tired. Packing the truck with one of those big boy guns.

    I live behind Vince Broglio. His jet skis have been in and out a few days already this season. He said Wednesday was huuuge.

    We had two drownings in town Wed, so that sucks. Vibes for the family, friends and SAR involved. One was a surfer. The other I'm not sure.

    Swift St was super fun today once the tide dropped. Perfect ten foot walls on the 6.6 again. So much fun.

    Wind and weather have been perfect with glassy to offshore pretty much everyday, Wednesday night just before dark was as good as it gets. Light to moderate offshores with 8-10' sets and only a few guys out. Swell filling back in, sore as hell but will get it done again tomorrow

    Yeah, that shot sucks. We seem to have someone swept off the rocks here or in Monterey each year. There was a newlywed couple a few years back. One got swept off the rocks and the other jumped in after them to save them. The would be rescuer was never seen again. The other made it back to shore. Talk about suck.

    In the not so sick, Scotts was fun this morning. Uncrowded (just three of us for a good hour plus, then about 10), and small enough for my 6.6. About DOH to a little plus. It was wonky, but I got a number of well lined up walls.

    The area between uppers and cottons was good this weekend. Pushing head high with nice shape. Found a corner and had it almost to myself for a while. The water is still not bad, I wore a long-sleeved spring.

    Glad you guys are getting after it. No snow yet in UT, but bought a MTB and have been riding quite a bit this fall.

    Been back to SD a few times for work but the swell and tides didn't line up enough for me to feel like paddling out. Back again in 2 weeks for a few days, guessing the wave situation will be better then.

    Get urself up the coast. Today was a down day. About a foot OH, clean and running about 100 yards down the reef, with a few really fun ones that would line up solid for the entire run. Two other guys out. One who I have known for years surfing all the nooks and crannies and the other I know from the break. Another guy paddled out at some point, but he was so far inside, I barely noticed him. Only wish I had more than 50 minutes to surf.

    Another pulse is filling in right now. 11@17 at Cape Mendoncino. That will work down the coast tonight. So will some brisk onshore. Will need to see what the morning brings.

    Lil left point delivered this morning, along with a smashed wrist on a 6" submerged rock. No, not that point, the one east of it. Drove south with the wettie on, and Montara was the biz. Pulled over, wife and cooler down to the beach, Matuse zipper came off in my hand. Still went out and bagged one. Lots of energy, and a fucking Titan's roster paddling out as I came in. Dropped crab pots after, making roughly 7 hours in the water. Neighbor is going to drive tomorrow/today, OT, where you at?

    Ended up at swift for a few. NBs was too small IMO. Swell looked good all day. Just happy the house will be peaceful again tomorrow. Looks like the morning could be decent ahead of the next system.

    It's not big south of Point Conception. San Diego, Ventura and El Porto are picking it up but Orange County is not bigger than shoulder high, at least according to surf line. I'm going to Mammoth this afternoon and I have things to do this morning but if I had nothing to do today I would drive down to north SD county, it is a bit bigger down there. Some good waves to be had, just not big like it is up north and not much in OC.

    I believe that. It is much smaller in town and out on the open coast.

    Scotts had some size this morning. The bull kelps is crazy. My biggest wave I was paddling through bull kelp so think, I could barely move. I paddled out toward the channel when I saw the wave, not wanting to take it on the head in the thicket. The wave had size and as it pushed in all the kelp around me and just inside of me disappeared, so I swiveled, pointed and went. Drop was big for the 6.6. About 15'. I could feel board vibrating, then I was at the bottom making my turn. The 200 yards went by fairly quickly. It was a long paddle back out knowing that that would not be topped.

    Tomorrow looks good ahead of the storm.
