Runoff

After coming home from the beach (and taking a long, hot, thawing shower) today, I ended up hunkering down in the warm confines of my home for the rest of the day. Although nice and warm, I ended up getting a little bored staying home for most of the day so I ended up farting around with some of the few clips that I got this morning.

The waves were ok - decent size and relatively long rides - but swamped out from the fat high tide. There was some significant runoff that you can blame on this morning's rather heavy rain.

Side-Shore Winds

I went to the usual spot today, but I was ill prepared for the gusty side-shore winds. Consequently, I ended up leaving shortly after I arrived. Here's a really short vid featuring a few clips that I got before my premature depature.



On the way mauka, I came across a spot that wasn't looking too shabby. While the wind was blowing side-shore at most of the breaks in the area, the wind was actually blowing off-shore at this spot. On top of that, with the exception of a few oblivious fishermen, walkers and bikers, there wasn't a soul in sight.

Much Like Friday

Here's a short video from Saturday. It was pretty much the same as Friday - nice conditions and nice waves - except Saturday was a little bit bigger.

Mid Day Stoke

With a hunch that the conditions were going to be good pretty much all day today, I decided to check out the beach around mid day. Not only did my hunch prove correct, but the waves were better than I expected. On top of that, someone left two hours worth of time in the parking meter where I parked my car. Stoked!

Winter 2012/2013 is Here

After a rather dismal summer and an almost non-existent fall, a nice winter swell was definitely a sight for sore eyes.

Here's some footage of said swell from yesterday:
