Notes : Overcast. Shifty w/the high tide – especially w/the backswell which jacked the waves up. A lot of paddling trying to find the shifting peak and at one point it started raining. Last wave ran into a fishing line. Couldn’t get it untangled until I was on the beach

Notes : Couldn’t really connect with these waves. Started out by A lot pump house but dumped it after a half hour and paddled north for more energy. (Actually to where T and T2 were in the lineup.) Managed to start to scratch out some decent rides. Had one very nice right that kept open and was hollow. It left me with no real dismount (i waited too long) so it just walloped me – pretty violent. That what I get for wanting too much of a good thing

Notes : Sunny, Clear and glassy. Micro Peak between taco bell and A lot pumphouse. Larger peak further north near volleyballs/crespi which I opted for. Nice rides somewhat marred by the glare of the sun because I could never feel entirely comfortable if I had noone in front of me- at one point I had to put my hand in front of me to see if the line was clear. It wasn’t and I narrowly avoided someone. Witnessed two glare related collisions. I eventually went to the extreme corner of the peak because it afforded me a clean flight path – just a little harder to actually dig in to the shoulder and catch the wave

Notes : Clean and clear skies. B Lot. Boatdox looked workable but there was a nice right coming through at Taco Bell – which I opted for. Good call- nice clean waits high rights pushing through – that stayed open for a number of decent 100+ yarders. Session was fron loaded for the first hour – the last half hour found less frequent ridable slides to choose from…

Notes : big and choppy and jumbled up. Waves were very shifty and hard to read. It was also reform city with one section puttering out you could kind of bounce onto another section. Also hard to see where people were located becuase of the chop and white caps. After two rides I was done

Notes : Linda was still a big sloppy mess -4400 Jules -albeit no rain and onshores. Headed down to Capitola. Beautiful crumbly outside glasssy breakers. Action was closer to the jetty – just out of view of the cam. would have been a five if the wave had more power- with the right steps you could really milk the waves. Saw of Montreal last night w/Tina so was singing opener Diane Coffee songs in the lineup all morning

Notes : Onshore giant jumbled mess- poring rain to boot. Very uninviting. Some folk were out. Not for me. Turned around and headed back into the SF bound commuter traffic. Realized I fixed Sube Aug 3,4 and 5 where I couldn’t surf. Thus, this run was every day since Aug 6 or 88 days in a row
