Well.......we'll see... The last one was bogus over here,mainly because of the shite winds.Says 190 deg,not the best angle for us.Sounds it may be a bit bigger with more energy.
Surfed cronkhite this am.... Got wet,first plunge after 5 weeks in paradise.The 4th is on sunday...there'll be no road trip!
just back from Coho's...place was a zoo yesterday.. up until 2 hours before sunset...30 + boats, Shaun Tomson and who knows how many surfers...4-6 plus with glassy conditions and xcellent shape...woke up this am too 3 guys out and a awesome session w/Bbruce from Morro..overall a good trip but damn does all of L.A go to the Ranch on every good south??
North of SCruz. Saturday am at fourmile with about 15 other guys and 6-8' faces on the sets, but half of the guys could hardly surf, so that left just a handful of us with our choice of three different takeoff zones. Couple of us kneelos surfing hard. Early on, however, a pretty serious injury to a surfer slipping on the rock shelf as he was about to enter the water, landing hard on a rock on his face, blacking out, breaking a rib or two. A buddy had to do a water rescue and swim him in where he regained consciousness. Paramedics and fire trucks came down and finally got him off the beach and to some real care.
Then this evening at Davnport Lnding, still 6-8' on the best sets and less than 10 out. A bit infrequent, but lots of enjoyable rides. Same two kneelos show up again without any prior arrangements...
I'm having a great time taking my very small wave board (Blast Stubb), shoving in bigger fins and riding it in this larger surf to see if it can still handle. It stayed very stable and the added manueverability was really inspiring to my surfing. Gotta keep doing this...
Surf in Humboldt today was 4-7 on the face
no one in the water reeling spitting rights so I said WTF and charged solo
praying the landlord is down south surf for two hours until the wind came up
but damn does all of L.A go to the Ranch on every good south??[/quote]
YES! All of Central Calif -San Diego goes to the Ranch on EVERY swell. Out at the Channel Islands( 38 mile boatride each way) there were 16 boats and a little overhead.. total joke !...Save money and travel!!
