Small, weak, and mushy--and fun. Don’t know what it was, but I was on it. Everything was working: wave selection, wave catching, execution, timing--everything. One of those days. Had a blast and felt great. Trades are stronger. Not crowded.

The forecasted bump is nowhere to be seen. Much smaller and gutless. Do-able. Kinda crowded.

Very weak and mushy. Some rare head-high. Unusually uncrowded (everyone must be in line buying their Lion King tickets--you silly savages, you).

Seems like new energy--it's definitely bigger. Moderate trades. Not crowded.

Bad. Windy and sloppy but fun at first. Then I got lost and couldn't find anything for the remainder. Horrendous and deeply disappointing. Initially, me and local pro each at our own peak. Then only me. When I was alone, I couldn't snag a wavelet to save my life. I was really out of it and couldn't get it going. Major kook episode.

Really weak. Pure wind swell. Was having a difficult time on the outside, then, finally, after much searching and haphazard wandering, found the inside bowl that was doubling onto the ledge. That kept me occupied for the remainder of the time. Started awfully; ended positively.

Fun at the Right-hander, but too few waves.

Seems like new energy, but it's weak and puffy. Wind is off/on. Not crowded.

Windier but kinda fun. Doubling with the low tide; east angle pretty good with the wind. Not crowded.

About the same. Slightly better form.

Not a good day for me. Kooking more than usual. Smaller and windy, but rippable on the inside. Not crowded.

It's gone. Smaller and sloppy. Still do-able but nothing like yesterday. Not crowded.

The Right-hander was going off this morning. Perfect angle/direction, solid 1-3 (maybe some 4s?). Best I've seen it in recent memory. Crowded. Worth it.

New energy--definitely bigger. Excruciatingly-long waits. Crowded. Moderate trades.

Slightly bigger. Not bad at first, then the sets died.
Paddling was easier, and my body was better acclimated. Still am clumsy. My balance is off and footing is unsure. Difficult to describe, but feels like I can't set up correctly for maneuvers because I can't discern the pivot point. But I'm much more comfortable. One day made a huge difference. New energy tomorrow?

Back Home
I hath returned. Went out this afternoon. My body was aching. Could barely paddle and stand up. Old age. It was crowded. The kooks were in mankai (full bloom).
