But it seems to be arriving a little late. And buoys are showing a slightly smaller sig swell coming in.

Kathode, it is actually max at 8 ft, and now dwindling through the day. But it is quite a bit better than it has been for months.

It seems like the place is not the same classy break it was forty years ago much of the time. The sand coming around the corner sometimes really helps though and the slot and point can clean up. The ASP Championship isn't even going there anymore. Now it's a Specialty event, The Coldwater Classic.

Skcedric;
I really loved that shot. It's not one of the Humboldt County lagoons, is it? Or are we way further south.

Darwin. It's a bit south of Humbolt. Pillar Point at the North end of Half moon bay.

Gopro's wierdly distort the waves so often you can't tell how big the wave was. Tube shots from behind or hand/mouth held seem to be the best. THat and the squirrel suit shots. My son messing around with his gopro.


A friend of mine riding a 6'4" I made him at a spot just below the UCSD campus. Photo by Dylan Hadley. That whole curtain fell in front of him and he had to punch thru the thing. You can just see it starting to form. Brant making the most of the end of the day at Blacks. Dylan just nailed the color.

That's a sick pit right there.

One of the few places I wished I were goofy.
