E's Surf Report

TGIF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

made the SF to SC county run before work... pretty underwhelming swell but a few fun ones here and there, glassy barrels but kinda walled and inco

talked robme into paddling out this morning. glassy. some bigger sets rolling through once and a while. south swell? hard to get 'em. fog horns a blowin. fun session.

looks pretty good out there right now, cleaning up w/ tide, b4 the wind.

Shred the surfff

saw the vicious backhand attack of one
top-sider sporting canuck this a.m.
a few decent waves to be had amidst the
fogs and the logs. pretty weak overall
but fun as always. i'll give it a 5.

bet the falling tide will stand those pups
up a bit. if you have a flex schedule flex
it soon. the wind, she's a gonna blow....

cheers.

What you don't understand, is that I make love to my hand. So, I don't need you honey, cuz I beat my dick like it owes me money! I say fuck it...

good on ya lerm and robme! i'm jealous.

wonderful album! holy mackeral!

Que Hondas NICENESS AMIGOS!

Scoring in El Salvador. The first 3 days, 6-8 foot point break perfection. Great to be able to experience with different boards and fins for once without jockeying for a wave. Got to the spot, ONE OTHER GUY OUT. Surfed my brains out. We also got Punta Roca by ourselves really fun. It just breaks right on the urchin-infested rocks. I´ve met some amazing people so far including two guys from SF. Matt and Kirk, don´t know their last names, but rad guys and fun to meet people from home. Anyway, the swell picked up a lot down here, but the winds on it. Hope everyone is scoring. adios!

Not trying to ruin the party, but driving from SF to Santa Cruz for basicly the same waves that were in SF, contributes a bit to global warming, wars and noise pollution.

where are you in El Sal? 59?

so does your surfboard, hippy.

I went out last night for a while just before dead high tide. There was only one other person in the water and he went in shortly after I got out. So mostly a solo session. It was kinda glassy but hard to catch. Some would start to break and die out others were musshy but OK. Prolly woulda had more fun on a longboard. Had one nice racy left that almost pitched but... The sidehore took me to no mans land where the waves either didn't break or the peak shifted so fast and the bump got so big it was nearly impossible to catch. All-in-all, it was good to get out cuz I've been dry since Sunday.

I had a dream this morning that I was paddling my board in a lake that I learned to swim in when I was a kid. A shark appeared not far away and was was heading right for me. It may have been inspired by a creepy feeling I got last night while surfing and not seeing any life in the water other than myself. Where's all the seals?

Contributed about half as much as bbr to global warming and hit a spot with two guys out, who immediately left. Glassy, enough size to be fun, but mucho randomness shape-wise; close-outs, fizzlers, ... The most promising part of the spot had a lot of "critical" take-offs, where waves would go from bumps to pitching in no time flat; I kooked most of them. A couple good rides, though. (No seals there, either.)

I'll run over you on your bike hippy POS in my SUV.

so does waking up in the morning. everything we do has some effect. but we have to live and we definitely have to surf. and if you thinks it's all the same waves in that region you are so missing out. but please continue to stay put. no one needs your judgment. we all do our best and if you can stay satisfied always walking/biking to your spot, that's awesome!
don't why i responded to that flame, i guess i'm really bored.

I'll burn your SUV to the ground, bruiser, then put the torch to your suburban POS pre-fab home.

ian, does Matt have long blond hair and look and sound like Spicoli?

Oh, the funnest part was the belly-ride in; a reflected wave gave me serious air. Danny Way has nothing on me.

steamwand: nice work on the CYA shut-down/tranformation work, what a travesty of an institution. i'm guessing your work overlaps with that of with lenore a.? tell her that mike from the old BAPW days said hi.

That reminds me steamwand. About CYA. What is the alternative plan if it gets shut down? I think it's a nescessary evil though it does need some reform. My only real experience in this area is working with kids (in a security capacity) that came from there for pshiatric evaluation at St Mary's Hopsital. I had to wrestle with quite a few violent street gang kid's, several of them over 6' and more than 200 lbs. These kids were dangerous to others as well as themselves. Hospitals are too expensive for long term care and the kids are not safe to be on the streets even with outpatient care.

not-a-hippy-a-butthole...sounds like some suit and tie
pissed in YOUR cornflakes and you should
be driving down the coast burning fossil fuels
trying to put a goddamn smile on your face.

i drove to the surf today and i am so stoked
i did. : )

HOORAY for frickin' IAN!
send some pics you chump!!! score some for us fog lovers!!
and get to CR at some point. i hear mexi is bored....

are any of you heads and peeps watching morgan spurlocks 30 Days program?

this weeks was about living off the grid, growing your own food, driving on veggie oil, and no flush toilets. check it out good tv.

i agree driving to sc to surf the same stuff that can be had closer is a bit of waste.

i added 15miles to my normal 6mile commute to dawn patrol the skatepark.

i am a banana republic wearing hippy.

peace

Nice Ian- Watch out for that "full stop rock" and tear it up! enjoy the pupusas while you can!

i have no idea what to say to this

J - weird article. I thought the most disturbing part was that only 33 states consider bestiality a crime.

This dog I know tried to date rape me once. We were on a walk in GGP and sat down to soak in the sun. Next thing I know, I wake up, smelling like liver trips, and the dog is all over me. He was like "woof, woof, bark", but I kept saying 'no, sit, heel!' He wouldn't back off! I eventually cried myself into submission and passed out. At least he brought me my slippers in the morning.

The other night something weird happened.

I was sitting on the couch watching tv jerking off when i looked over and my dog was sitting next to me jerking off too. We both looked at each other and sorta didn't know what to do. It was very awkward.

OK - well, back to surfing. It looks pretty good out there right now form the cams. I should could go for some good claen waves.

"fat guy in a nice tube.
fat guy in a nice tube."

that is impressive.....

I am working at Bodega Marine Lab, and I just watched two lingcods fight over a monkeyface eel. So bascically they each had half of the monkeyface down their throats and were kissing, just like in Ladie and the Tramp.

That shot of the big guy getting shacked put "Heroes" in my head.

Sleepily ran up to my jetty at 5:30ish in the mid dark. I jumped back when i almost stepped on a huge mass. It was large dead seal. Poor guy. Saw some dead fish floating out in the ocean too. Weird. Didn't really have a good feeling in my bones with all the death around. Got some chunky fun though, a lot of weird double ups and bumps.

Happy weekend Niceness Heads!

Q—that ROCKS.

the travelling light i have on right
now does not fit as well.

I too drove to SC this am. Westside SC was not happening this morning, except for the Lane. I avoided the crowd and paddled out a bit west of there. The waves were very inconsistent and seemed to be closing out a lot. Plus the water was filthy. I give it 4 on a scale of ten.

Good shows over the weekend, huh?

some fun ones this am with the tide coming out.

but at first they were some strange pulses of energy which reminded me of a different season as I got creamed on an inside sandbar and rolled in the sand

at times it looked promising but ultimately it was not quite lining up but compared to the last fortnight it was most acceptable

Ok i'm done now

ELF....

this ones awesome too if you havent checked it out e..

Finnaly rode this yesterday and today. NO Narrels...nearly lost my eye. Best bring a helmet for this one and your wettie. Water is as cold as in SF in this part of Baja. Crazy. Im in my hooded 5.4 and feeling good. Hood save my face at Razors.

Actully did the Cabo party thing upon arrival as well as hit up La Roca and Zippers in Costa Azul. NO camping in cabo and its expensive. Fine ass chicas though and plenty of party seekers.

Swell will be arriving soon to you heads so go south.

Props to IAN for doing it. Many waves and gals to you my friend.

Props to Rick of Rickland Surfboards for my 6?2. Couldnt make Razors without it!!!!

Tom-
I am still doing that knee thing on my take offs sometimes and still getting tubed.

Oh Jimbo has got nothing on the 50yr old here spitting out of 5ft dry reef tubes!!!

Crazy being feral in Baja, but the surfers and locals here are the best. Re instilled my faith in surfers. Not surfing great yet but still making a lot of progress.

I am in surfers paradise sans the sand,wind, flies, no women, poor acomadations and resources.

Wish I coudl say that I wish you were all here...nah....plenty of spots and waves here for everyone!!! Hope you all get yours!!!!!!!!!

"I want a bump wing squash just like Tommy's"

except for those boots!

pez-sick that you are down there now. you guys are crazy to surf that wave. seriously i sat there for about half an hour just watching the waves churn over the reef and i wasn't havin any of it. but i was by myself as well. and it just did not look makeable. probably wasn't. don't tell me that you are seeing somebody fatter than that dude surfing. i don't believe it. that dude is big. i saw guys like that body surfing in kona but stand-up. no way!

Malibu? I've heard of Malibu! It's an awesome surf spot! Sweet!

yeah pezzer!

steamwand.. that wave needs some swell to be doable. even when it's working with some swell, it's a rock-dance for sure. I hesitated for a while but then just paddled out and took off on a few. I was scared and only took off on the big ones.

love that photo of the big guy! inspiring and kind-of like briley.

holy shit! - movie clip of a bad-ass maneuver

Indy, (stalefish?) fs 360
?????????????????
go ripper guy!

oh yeah ... to revert.

holy ass crack that is sick! rad music too

wow that is some insane shit... who is that guy?

yaba daba doobie!

mighty progressive

shiiiiiiiiiiiiiit.

siiiiiiiiiiiiiick.

Its funny but that Curren board shape really hasnt changed much since then.

Except maybe the price.

You do some really fucking amazing work.

I wasn't trying to flame, it just seems a little piggy to burn 5-10 gallons of gas to ride some mediocre summer waves. I thought surfers were a little better than that. At least they were in the 80's and 90's. The new breed may be more into it for other reasons. Anyway, I surf the closest place to home and that is usually the best waves around.

BTW, Santa Cruz is pretty pussy. Soft, rolly, groomed nut gulper waves.

sometimes you take a chance and hope you can score elsewhere. nothing wrong with that, even in the summer. especially in the summer, when the golden gate winds often drop off dramatically as you head away.

currents pushing me every which way mid-beach today, but got one to line up, and i'm happy. surfing is fun.

The reality of the situation

ugly f'n aggro attitude at lindy friday afternoon.

"get out of my way
don't even talk to me
shut the f up
you continue to act like that you'll get no waves out hear
i got nothing to say to you"
