Post-session
It's dropped a lot, but there are still some occasional "bombs." Started at the regular place. The waits were long. Seemed pretty dismal. Then some surprising big sets came in, and that offered hope. But much too inconsistent.
Could see that the originally huge crowd at the Right-hander had thinned significantly, so I paddled over because yesterday was so much fun: I wanted more. At first it was slow with a poor angle and all-shoulder and not much wall.
Then, all of a sudden, everything improved, and I started to have a blast. The sets got consistent and the direction shifted to the main bowl and it was lining up all the way across. Super fun.
I was doing well again. My board was working great. I had some incredible rides, truly. Did several straight-up blasts that freaked me out. Then it got crowded again; and then it thinned again. At the end of the session, I was tired/burnt and surfed-out. Would have to say this was my best time this summer so far. I'm thankful that the trades are back.
