I respect the effort and that he held his line through the barrel! He just got clipped on the way out. Little by little the groms are taking over!

You can see the wave shape has been consistent since Wednesday, just that the size has slowly faded. We should start to see more swell tomorrow night! Let's see if it shows up early. Hasta manana.
