Fun Pre-Memorial Day Weekend AM Session
« on: May 24, 2019, 12:24:19 PM »
Paddled out at 5am to small but nice conditions after about an hour the offshore wind really picked up.  No gloves wore 4/3 suit, 3/2 booties, will wear the 3/2 suit from here on out.

I just switched to my 4/3 today. It'll be a while before I can use the 3/2. Still need gloves, boots and occasional hood up here. 

One thing I noticed in the video is that you go right a lot better than I do. The spot where I surf is a left which I like because I'm goofy. I've been surfing there for five years and rarely get the opportunity to go right. I only surf other spots when it's overhead. I really need to work on my rights more.

Rights are more common around here.  In my regular surfing days I surfed rights probably more than lefts.

Nice small waves. And it looked like you had the entire place to yourself to surf.

Hey Rick, so true.  I love how early it gets light this time of year.  Ocean is alive too, my soloshot is suddenly not tracking consistently since the weekend but this morning it did manage to film dolphins and if you look to the right of the screen at
 about 50 secs a whale breaks the surface.

Couple waves the soloshot missed.  Some guy took the pics and must have added color.

I don't know how you guys do it with conditions that cold. I would die :-)

Great conditions. Very smooth style.

Some sweet smooth riding in that early morning glass. Lovin' that early morning light too. Reminded me of my January North Swells vid.

One could go into a mall in Kansas and ask a teenager "What is a surfer looking for?, and the answer will always be, "The perfect wave"
