Good day sunshine

"Good day sunshine" I could tell at the start of the day it was going to be fun.

Sunrise Session

"Sweet Sunrise Session" today at Malibu
Swell droped a bit and so did the crowds.

Still plenty of Southern Hemi in the water.


Inside section was real good today.



1972 Liddle Hull


Just liked this shot.

I think everyone was surfed out. Plenty of waves to go around.


Swapped boards for a few waves with Alex Knost. This board was made for him. The boards core is computer cut cardboard and glassed over.


Rode my 6'10" hull today the board I call Merlot.

A little summer left

Surfed San O in the AM. The local beach breaks were still a little closed out. So I opted for a mellow session. The conditions were great. There was still "A little summer left".


Southern hemi still in the water. Tide was high and the point was fun.

Winds were nice. Glassy and a little offshore from time to time for most of the AM.

David N. going left.



Danger Bob on a set.

All in all a classic summer type morning.

Rode my 7'-9" hull again today. Worked really good on the inside high tide point waves. The sets were a little mussy so I let the loggers burn each other on them.

A little help from my friends.

Scored some nice shaped waves thanks to "A little help from my friend" who gave me yesterdays report. I have been getting alot of beach break surf with marginal shape. So today was a nice change.
Great conditions and perfect swell direction.

Lots of people on it but can you blame them. I started out slow at dark and ended with a bang scoring a flurry of sets. Sometimes you just end up in the right spot even with the crowds.


Sweet southwest swell



Plenty of hulls out in the water today.




Even at high tide the waves were really good. I hated to have to leave.

Started at dark. Rode my 7'9" Owl Hull which ended up to be a perfect choice. I started out a little funky due to riding my bonzers for the last two weeks. The transition somtimes is hard. But by the end of the session it was working like magic.

Surf stoke and broken toe

Vollyball and soccer for fun. Except I tried my luck with in barefoot soccer and ended up with a "Broken Toe"


With the storm approaching we were a little nervous. But fun was had by all including Britney . Oh and it was at Doheny and had some fun logging to boot. Before the broken toe.
