Eh, almost didn't want to ruin the day with a less than stellar session, but I had to take advantage of the day off (Veteran's Day). Ended up getting a few outside waves, which was a surprise. Stayed out way past sunset. I could see well due to the nice orange clouds on the horizon and the almost full moon. There was a couple out on longboards. Typical boyfriend/drill instructor type teacher. She wanted to stay out, but he was hounding her to come in.

Great day! Nice size, a bit mush, but every wave was makeable. Crowd was there, but never had to fight for a wave. Started to get a little more hallow and fast, but then the wind took over.

Size: 5-7' sets to 8!
Board: Wedding Board
Water Temp: 63

I was excited last night when I saw the forecast, but didn't know it would come with wind. Strong wind and a fast side shore current that took me south quick. Not a lot of surfers out, but many kiteboards and windsurfers. Struggled to get out even though the waves weren't that big or powerful, just a lot of water moving. Hope it cleans up...
