another fun morning
another morning of pleasurable, soul-enriching surf in our little coastal burg. Shoulder/head-high windswell waves mellowly peeling along semi-shallow sandbars. If yesterday was a 7.5.. today was a 6. Waves had a similar shape and consistency.. but lacked a certain magic and oomph that was present yesterday morning. but.. that perspective could be the product of my subjective experience. I hit up Sliz without checking the rest of the beach. The situation looked so glassy and inviting from the lot at 6:40 that i couldn't restrain myself and just jumped in. I managed a few lip-flicks and a resounding gouge or two. i also somehow took off into a barrelly wave without my board!! i don't know what happened.. but i ended up bodysurfing down the face and then getting pummelled.. dragging my board by its leash the whole time. I tried a few of those light-footed frontside 360s but never really got past 200. There were quite a few close-outs out there.. but also a healthy helping of bowly, peeling shore-dumpers. not too crowded either. I want to give props to the little asian girl out there just north of sloat on her longboard. i watched as wave after wave erupted on her head and just tried to pound her into oblivion.. but.. with much pluck and determination she made it outside.. minutes later i see her confidently stand up and take off into a sizeable wave.. only to get a short ride and then get pounded again by the rest of the set.. but 10 minutes later she was back outside.. smiling even!! nice work lady charger!!
what else? A girl-surfer friend of mine went to court yesterday for an incident that happened last winter at the VFWs parking lot. I guess she was just chilling near her car.. watching the waves and contemplating a session.. when this dude pulls up next to her in his car... he whips his thing out and starts masterbating right in her view.. looking at her the whole time!!!! fucking nasty right! He doesn't stop there though.. he then gets out of his car and continues to get down with himself right in front of my friend... My friend starts screaming at him and just screaming in general but the guy doesn't stop for a while.. just keeps going for it and staring her down... she finally raises enough of a ruckus to scare him off. he gets back in his car and drives away.. but not before she memorizes his plate number.. she reported him to the police and i guess she finally went to court about it yesterday. She says that she always sees dudes masterbating in the VFers parking lot!!! which.. i thought a little weird.. i've never seen that. have any of you? weird, eh? sketchy SF dealings!
also.. there is a surfrider club beach cleanup this weekend!!! cruise down and help Adam and company pick up the beer-bottles, cardboard, rusty nails, glass, secret decoder rings, pirate treasure maps, mermaid scales and the like from our beloved beach:
It's on sunday the 20th at OB and Judah, from 10-12am, people
can stop by at any time in between.
SLO county
I was wondering what that sticky shiz was on the bottom of my bootie this morning!
Yeah, makes me feel good that I slurfed VFW's this a.m. Thanks E! I am dry cleaning my wetsuit as we speak. That is sick. If I see you macking pud in the VFW's parking lot, watch out because there is likely a flying orbital coming at your front windshield.
BTW, I gave VFW's a 4 today. Gutless and weak but stuck to my board like glue!
Posted by: Kaiser at July 18, 2003 10:20 AMHey Niceness crew,
I'm heading back east next week and I'm flying back with my mom's old Hobie 9'8" shaped by Gary Propper. The board's pretty beat up: dings galore, delam, lots of water stains. It's close to 35 years old and it's seen a lot of neglect over the last decade.
I heard of a guy in Pacifica that supposedly does a decent resto job on old boards. Do you guys have any suggestions on who would be able work on something like that? I'd love to get it cleaned up and give it back to her as a 50th b-day gift.
Yeah mom!
Also, I'll be hitting the northern Atlantic breaks from my youth (York Beach, Maine and vicinity). Anyone slurf there lately?
Thanks-
Nate

Posted by: Phunski at July 18, 2003 10:53 AMe - you're posting pics of her in a bikini a year last winter on the niceness report, and now she's your friend. My how times have changed. It was quite good to see her pursue that sort of harassment - shout out to our mystery woman (who was in the water in my locale this morning). I gave her commendations myself this morning after the session.
Surfed on my street, again, was good. Second one in, surfed about two hours. Many a wave was had. I agree, it lacked a little of the ooomph of yesterday, but there were plenty of waves coming through. After a while, a certain peak got really crowded - which wouldn't be so bad except that the people crowding it were all really good. I felt like a total kook. I dragged my tired self out of the water, another good UFO session, and still can't wait to make the next one. If only work weren't the crusha for the next week...
nate, there are options for board restoration. The best is to do it yourself. You can get all the stuff for FAR FAR cheaper than it will cost to get multiple dings/delams fixed. Someone posted Alex Martins (that would be Brazilian Alex) phone info a week or two ago on the blog here, he is local, does good work, is fast, and cheaper than shops. If you have more time than money, though, I'd grab a repair manual, about $30-40 bucks in glass, resin, and sandpaper, and DIY.
Posted by: blakestah at July 18, 2003 11:02 AMfor shizzle...ob is a pretty shady as far as beach goers go..my session at mid beach today gets a 6.5, half a point better than yesterday as i was out about an hour longer..i had a dream last night that i found a really good right point a little north of half moon bay last night..ill give that dream a 7 because i woke up as i was paddling out..sad
Posted by: bagel at July 18, 2003 11:04 AMThat's weird, I've never seen anything like that or heard other girls say that's ever happened, but VFW is full of weirdos just like any other part of the city.
Posted by: Douglas at July 18, 2003 11:06 AMKaiser,
Should have known a niceness crew member could pull a joke out of that parking lot freak story. Thanks for the laugh on a Friday morning.
Hit OB last night with my old tanker. Got some good rides until the sun set. Found an empty peak - always fun.

Posted by: d looose at July 18, 2003 11:07 AMwierd. that sucks for yer friend. especially the embarrassement of having to deal with that in a court room. south coming in. anybody know what the angle window is up here for souths?
went out middle beach and found a nice bar setup all to my lonesome. a two hour test in patience sesh.
for any of you guitar heads out there, there's a big guitar show going on down at the cow palace today thru sunday.

Posted by: lerm at July 18, 2003 11:15 AMin retrospect i should have gone out at kellys, 1 longboarder out there @ like 7:15 getting some fun looking rights..live and learn
Posted by: bagel at July 18, 2003 11:20 AMcruised the beach this morning...found my own little bowly peak...slipped into my still-damp wetty from my sunset sesh yesterday...was joined by a buddy...and had a totally fun seshie!! nothing epic, but lots of waves to be had. by 7, a few other peeps had joined in, but the vibe was chill and friendly. early in the sesh, snagged a nice left at the peak, accelerated down the face, and (for a change) made it around a cascading section to snug up close to a waist high wrapping wall. went for a little floater at the end as it closed, but messed it horribly and just exploded in the whitewater instead! came up from the turmoil with a big smile on my face! i wasn't out in the morning yesterday so i can compare, but i was pretty fired up about the conditions.
...let's hope it continues through the weekend!!
sick (in a bad way) story, e. some dudes are messed up.
Posted by: ck at July 18, 2003 11:26 AMlerm - I don't know that I would really say a south is coming in. My prediction - forget about the south - it'll be REAL lucky to make 2 feet - I'd put even odds on about 1.2 ft 14-17 sec 175-180 deg up here.
Then again, if you are an eastsider (dano, are you listening), there is a chance you will notice it. But it ain't gonna be a macker. The storm was just not enough.
Posted by: blakestah at July 18, 2003 11:31 AM...oops...i mean "can't compare". sorry about the typo.
Posted by: ck at July 18, 2003 11:35 AMserious props to your friend for spending the time to take that guy to court, e. (and for having the presence of mind to get his plates.) do flashers and jerkoffs think they can get away with stuff like that?...or are they too messed-up to even realize?...or both? or more? crazy men seem to really enjoy GG park and OB...so i'm glad your friend was ok. her taking the time to do something probably kept another chica from experiencing the same shitty thing...which makes her deserving of even more thanks...
happy weekend.
Posted by: friendly at July 18, 2003 12:09 PManyone out there have the link to that mission surf club (or something) website?...there was an illustration from twist on the front page? (avoiding work today)someone posed it up a while back
Posted by: bagel at July 18, 2003 12:15 PMruggles... Rhode Island
Posted by: e at July 18, 2003 12:17 PMThanks all for your board repair tips I think I'll see how far I can get with the DIY route and have Alex bat cleanup if it comes down to it.
E- sick New England pics. I doubt it'll be firing in Maine/NH next week, but it'll be nice to bring some west coast skills back home.
enjoy the weekend.
Posted by: Nate at July 18, 2003 01:23 PME, thanks for the public service announcement. Secret decoder rings! Hilarious because it's true.
Posted by: adam at July 18, 2003 02:08 PMcool to hear you guys got some fun ones the last few days. just got back from SLO area - we got a few. Nothing great - but still fun. Checked most spots from san simeon to grover beach - grover being the most consistent, empty and fun. kinda light peaks, hooting sesh with my SD homies. lots of single fin riding going on. pismo pier had a few also, wed. morning. southside.
Posted by: eightwest at July 18, 2003 02:24 PMgood to surf in different places, love that freshness feeling. ...
Drove by middle of the beach OB today (1:00ish)one the way up north, a few guys getting some racy ones. yeah.
anyone doing the post-work surf-jam? it looks a bit sloppy but maybe doable... hmmm... it's always tempting.. but.. sometimes it's nice to just save it up for the next-day dawnie and wake-up all fresh and frothing to get in the water.. I think that Lerm and i are going to do a little exploration tomorrow early.. hmmm...
hope y'all get fantasmagorically elongated pits from hell this weekend.. and make it out to tell the tale!!

Posted by: e at July 18, 2003 04:44 PMHey heads. Make sure to check out the Billabong Pro on Sunday morning their time (http://www.billabongpro.com/). Looks like it is going to throwing the mack down like 15 ft at 15 sec.
Blakestah... the Point on a weekend day that will probably be sunny?? OMG, you'll be able to walk out on the backs of all the surfers into the lineup. I think I'll stick to weekday DP sessions in the serious fog.
-d
Posted by: dano at July 18, 2003 04:45 PMany reports on OB ? it's about 4:45 -- thinking about a sunset session on my longboard. how's the wind out there ?
have a great weekend, niceness crew.
Posted by: h.h. at July 18, 2003 04:47 PMya, I gotta paddle out now too, and get some vibe out of my system.. H.H. you going? anyone got some beta?
Posted by: bertrand at July 18, 2003 05:02 PMOB looks pretty foggy and flat on surfpulse cam, but I'm thinking about a longboard shesh too though..
Posted by: Nate at July 18, 2003 05:08 PMhmmm... totally foggy. surfline cam at taraval is revealing some clean-ish looking lines. but the winds are onshore at 17 knots. gross. tempted to check out sloat. hope y'all get some.
Posted by: h.h. at July 18, 2003 05:55 PMit cleaned up! south sloat had some micro peaks for some 3-4 second rides. but then all of a sudden the fog lifted and conditions got calm...unfortunately by then it was quittin time.
Posted by: bertrand at July 18, 2003 08:22 PMit even looked nice at VFs as I was driving home! ...well, considering how miserable it looked just two hours before.
i can't believe she got my plate number.
