The wind was definitely stronger today, but at least the direction was good. Nearly straight offshore.

Lucy's rail to rail surfing continues to improve. Pretty close to textbook form during her bottom turn here.

Asher is consistently ripping. He was on a bigger board, but roped through some smooth turns.

A little cross-step carve haha! I guess this board is about as closest thing to a longboard that I've ever seen Asher ride.

It worked well with on the corners as the tide filled in. It let him carry speed through to the inside effortlessly.

No one was sitting at the deep north peak. It was slow there, but clean and playful when the sets came.

It was a good day for the lefts! I think the swell direction turned slightly more south as there weren't as many draining rights as yesterday.

Another day of fun waves! Hopefully the size doesn't drop too much tomorrow. But it is forecasted to drop notably. Hasta manana.
