Tropical storm Andrea kicking off the season in the redneck riviera.
Powerful day, snapped my leash and had to call it a day,

o-man what's ur favorite spot over there on the south side of the island? pyro, my personal favorite spot for south swell is "Lone Tree" aka "Woody's"
Over the years it has delivered quite well for me.
It has a left with a channel back out, and a right that has two great sections.
It can be quite shallow at the end if you take that last sweet hit. You definitely don't want to put your feet down if you can help it.
Woody's has a sketchy launch in that there is only one safe channel with out sea urchins and its rocky.
Woody's is only good up to a little over head or eight foot faces then it starts to close out although the reform is quite rideable and often you just have to sit outside and wait for the smaller waves of the sets.
I have been surfing there quite allot this summer and I have had some of the best sessions that I can remember.
Often I have long sessions with only one to four people out and I usually know them.
Several weeks back we had the best and longest south episode that I have had in the 13 years I have been here and many of the veterans swear it was the 30 year swell.Talk about surfed out!
That was followed by a late season N/W that delivered some great surfing and epic wave sailing right here in my back yard.
Last week it was back over to the wast side for yet another advisory level south swell.

Greg,
If you're from Walnut Creek, do you go to Marin, Ocean Beach or Santa Cruz? Or, do I have it all wrong? I would love to be in any of those places.

I'm from Goleta, next to Santa Barbara, so grew up surfing waves between County Line and Jalama. Up here in the Bay Area, I'm an Ocean Beach guy, and I make forays toward Santa Cruz when OB gets too huge for me to handle.

New surf movie out, the shadow knows.
For nearly five decades filmmakers have tried to capture the essence of surfing.
Only a few of hundreds of films - "The Endless Summer" in 1966, "Five Summer Stories" in 1972, "Riding Giants" in 2004 and "Surfwise" in 2007 - have hit the mark.
Add "Uncharted Waters" - a 90-minute documentary of Wayne Lynch, Australia's golden child of surfing - to the list.
here's a clip:

Good lad, great attitude and oh what a shame Papa Dennis is on longer with us to share the joy of seeing his "kid" gracefully move upward in the world.
