2014.10.20

WARNING: Fast rising storm swell today; expect waves to be expert only by 15:00

Looking small but it's clear that the NW is here. Buoy is reading intermittent 20 sec period since 22:30 yesterday. Wind is light to non-existent but there is a big bad cloud front on the horizon that'll probably bring some rain and turbulence with it. Waves are waist to chest high now likely going head high to a little overhead by early afternoon then morphing into big angry beast by low tide. Longboards get here NOW, shorboards best between 11-1 and bodysurfing primetime anytime after that. 0.7ft high @ 10:00 then a low of 1.11ft at 16:10.

  1. Cool go pro shot! Were you holding it in your hand? I got a wrist mount but i'm not sure if it works too well only tried it a couple times so far

  2. Nope, I was holding it in my mouth. Got a custom mouth mount (key chain floaty duck taped around the plastic mount) and it works pretty well. A little funky to get used to but doesn't interfere with my surfing and allows me to film other people as well. I feel like a wrist mount would only really be good bodysurfing or buggy boarding.
