What Say Ye?

So how's it looking out there? Gonna be crowded, no doubt. (Hype.)

We need all the miscreants to return to school. Some of the kids go back today, but the extremely problematic college-student demographic still has until Aug. 21. Get thee to class, you punks.

Retro

BTW, yesterday morning I had the Right-hander to myself for about half an hour, and it was inconsistent but excellent. Ideal direction, head-high to over-head, and lined-up. Immediately caught about six waves that were the best rides I've had in some time. Then the tide bottomed and the sets died. That's when two other guys joined me. But there were still some fun ones coming in.

My board was working awesomely. Overall, I had fun. And I'm not sure about the angle, but since the A-framer was working there must've been some west in it. To me, it looked like direct south with some east-y-ness.

Scouting

Just got a report from a friend who surfed the Left-hander this morning. Said it sucked. About the same as yesterday--not much change in size--and packed to the max with "goons." Apparently, it's crowded everywhere, which is no surprise.

About the same size and conditions. Getting better now, I think, with more wave action. Beware: crowded--Kook City.

Pretty crappy. Small and mushy (onshore) but some head-high sets out of nowhere (freak or new energy?).

Awfulness. I was wondering if someone could do me a favor and round up all the kooks on the island and take them to my regular spot ASAP. Oh, never mind, it's already been done.

It was showing definite signs of new energy. Then it died. Don’t know what happened.
