Just got back from a fun SanO morning. No crowds, waves with some push, and a little off shore spray to boot ;D

I caught a shoulder high wave of the day. Hit the lip twice, speeded thru two sections and kicked out with a bunch of speed. I looked at the beach to see if my buddy Paulie was shooting me on that one. Nope! He's talking to some chicks....... Figures.
It's not overhead to me!

Nice one TD. I love that the weather and ocean are finally getting back to normal. What's the water temp down there?

I surfed the last two mornings with small but clean conditions and semi-clear water.

I hope we are on track for a good spring.

Water is still a bit nippy, but that didn't keep me from trunk'in it. Here's a couple of me just fun'in around on some shin slappers.

Roads open and basically 20 or so less parking spaces now. Wasn't a problem today:)

Bill, you got gypped out surf and weather wise this winter in SoCal. I was hoping we'd get at least a few sessions together. Glad you got your Riders Club fix. This has just been one of those winters. Our fence got blow over in the back yard. A large tree also fell over in our back yard and just missed one of our cars. This will be the summer of unavoidable home maintenance for me.
