November 30th

Small knee-waist chop today with hard onshore/sideshore winds. Pretty nasty out. I need to get in the water so I'll be out there. prob alone. Good Luck!

update: the rip is sucking west pretty hard. waves are getting bigger the later it's getting. Some nice peaks standing up about chest high on the inside and then closing out. Walk back against the wind was kinda brutal. Toasty warm in a 5mil w/boots, and gloves.

November 29th

today: pancake flat. tiny ripple.



tomorrow should bring a little rideable chop which should get bigger through out the day. Wednesday should be shoulder+ range and could get bigger in the afternoon but might be totally blown out. The rest of the week looks ok too could be in the knee to waist range in the better spots, and somewhat clean on the right tides with the right winds.

November 26th

Waves are waist+ with some bigger set waves but really messy and choppy. worth it if your dieing to get out but nothing special. Most guys were on longboards. There are some corners if your in the right place so a shortboard works too. I did get a few pics of myself which is cool.




I wore a 5mil with gloves and boots board is 5'6x 20 5/8

Gobble Gobble.. Happy Thanksgiving to all! Hope everyone enjoys their turkey and day off.

Unfortunately it is totally flat today. Not even a ripple.

I'm hoping for some small but rideable chop tomorrow. prob in the knee - waist range. Forecast's for next week are also looking promising exp. Tues through Wed. Maybe get some NW winds in the afternoon on Wednesday to clean things up. Fingers crossed.

Stay stoked,

small and choppy.. ankle - knee high wind chop. maybe a random bigger peak here or there. not worth it for me. no one out.


Shout out to my boys J.Woz and Reuben for Shipping my boards up here via greyhound. The packing job was incredible. Only one day in transit! They came in perfect and have since been stripped, polished and rewaxed and one even got a new tail pad. Ready to shred!!

Thanks guys!!

Waist to chest today. Clean and Fun in the late morning/afternoon. Bunch of heads in the water. Prob better with a Log, fish, or thick quad but shortboarders are still getting a bunch and shreddding. Great day, beautiful weather. Getting some pics up soon. Go surf if you can.

November 13th

10 AM: Waves are really fun! Clean and glassy, but crowded. Anywhere from shoulder to head high+. It's working the whole way down the beach. This is the end of the latest swell. Enjoy while it lasts. Have fun and stay safe.

PM: Lost some size this afternoon. Still clean and fun but waist to chest with the occ. bigger set. Tons of people in the water and up on the boards watching. Beautiful day.

New pics from today at the top of the photo stream to the left.

November 12th

AM:waves are good. Solid Head high with some + on the sets and some - in between.

Not many early birds out. The pictures don't do it justice but I wanted to get something up here before I get out in the water.

High tide is fattening the wave out a little bit but there are def still some hollow ones coming in. The inside doesn't look to hard to navigate. Although you can see what happened to the guy caught inside in the first pic with the white long board going over the falls. More pics from the day will be at the top of the photo stream on the left. Go Surf!!!

PM:It got bigger and really fun. Head high + with plenty of push. some big drops and thick walls of water but many closeouts on the inside. Not too many people out.


4/3 or better need booties.. long board or short board

-Boz

November 11th

PM update: built a little up until dark. Great sunset, some nice sets came in around chest high. 4-5 minute lulls between sets. Not much wind on it. It was fun but not nearly as big as was predicted. maybe it'll pick up more for tomorrow. a have a couple pics on my phone but there not great. Didn't have a chance to take any with the camera. Tomorrow I'll get some up.

Am: waves are in the waist to chest range. Kinda fat and slow moving but def shreddable. The tide is very high but the swell is showing and producing fun waves with not too many heads in the water. I'll try to get some pics up later. Go surf!

November 10th

Still glassy and flat, small swell pulse starting to show but breaking on the beach about shin high. Not really worth putting pics up. There's no one out. Tomorrow should show us what we can expect throughout the weekend. Reports still look good. Pray for surf.


Update: As of 3pm waves are coming in clean, waist w/some random shoulder sets. maybe 10 guys out. mostly long boards. no hoods, no gloves but 4/3's or better w/ booties. Have fun!

November 8th

Ocean has gone flat again, but not for long. Another E Swell starts to fill in wed afternoon and should stick around through Sunday and even into next week. Expect to get some big cold waves this weekend!!


-Boz

November 7th

Waves are still super fun. waist+ with the occ. shoulder high sets, wind is still off shore so there are some barrels on the inside. Almost zero closeouts. The slow moving waves are a little fat but are just about perfect for a Long Board. Its clean and lined up all the way down the beach. minor easterly drift just past the jetty. About 30 heads in the water. Stoked!



wore a 5mil w/o boots or gloves and my feet are still frozen. The mini long board did its thing again today.



-Boz

November 6th

Just about perfect today. Head high+ clean and glassy with offshore winds. Some closeouts but many, many barrels to be had. 20+ heads in the line-up. Go Surfing!!

There's a grom contest going on at the beach on L. But F is Firing with more waves and seems bigger and more hollow. Word on the boards is that Lido is even bigger.

I got a report that Diehl, NJ was big and super fun yesterday.

A 4/3 would be a good call for today. Everyone's in booties and a lot have gloves and hoods too.

R.I.P. - 3x World Champion surfer Andy Irons who died yesterday of dengue fever in a hotel room in Dallas, TX. He was trying to get back to Hawaii but was refused boarding on to the plane in Dallas. He was found in his hotel room the next morning. Most likely he contracted dengue fever or bone crusher fever from an infected mosquito when he first arrived in Puerto Rico for the Rip Curl pro search contest. He missed his first two heats due to illness and when he decided he would rather see his own doctors in Hawaii, Andy left Puerto Rico and never made it home. He leaves behind a wife and an unborn baby, his brother Bruce, parents, and a shocked surfing community. He was 32.

Going to watch "A Fly in the Champagne" over and over all day.

November 2nd

Still flat.

The Approaching SE ground swell has been down sized a bit for this weekend but still should provide some very fun ride-able waves. Stay stoked LB!

November 1st

No waves today.


We do have a pretty nice looking SE swell working its way in. Friday, Saturday, Sunday should be real fun. Prob in the waist to shoulder range and relatively clean due to the NW winds. Pray for surf!
