Hey there and Happy Saturday! How about we start out with how it really looked when I rolled up to the beach earlier this morning? Sitting and waiting for sets is all about the beach check process. Sometimes you score right when get there and see what is maybe the set of the day, or maybe thereā€™s swell but thereā€™s a long interval or at the very least long lulls in between what could be potentially super sick waves for the day, or maybe nothing comes through at allā€¦???? How you wanna roll the dice on todays morning wavesā€¦. letā€™s check it out!

Ooooops!!! SO GLAD didnā€™t bounce too soon or I would have missed this! How much do you guys and gals really love this feeling, that feeling when everyone (which for today was only about 4 or 5 people max) haas been sitting inside too long that, that outside bomber set comes in and everyone was out of position and the wave steamrolled through completely unridden!

Dog park was looking pretty fun, but then again, Iā€™m about a mile away looking though a 400mm lens. But I think thereā€™s possibly some potential!

The good old 2 dimensional front straight on angle sometimes doesnā€™t give the waves steepness or extent of how much vert or contour a wave has in it really. But it would be comparable to it like this guyā€™s threading the coping on a poolside grind.

Surf, skate, even snowboarding (the youngest in the action sport realm) the both have been fusing together for almost 3 decades now. Backside air, which isnā€™t an easy air out of airs, but it sure as hell looks rad whichever board is under your feet.

Midget tossing I think is completely Un-PC, like from what I hear these days, so for all you sensitive socialmedialights, mini-me tossing is always a fun beach activity round here!
