Board : 94
Notes : Pounding all the way down the coast. Sea foam floating onto highway one. At Capitola a tree had fallen from the top of the cliff and crushed half the promenade which was closed off with yellow tape. King high tide with water smashing up against the sea wall. I waited an hour and a half for the tide to lower than paddled out. It was big. Grabbed somme nice big wedges. However got caught inside at one point and had a panic attack. Had to paddle south because –even with the tide getting low- there was no shoreline – I would have just been smashed up against the rocks. The set finally let up and I paddled back around. Took one more wave then paddled back in – even that was a chore because waves were stillpounding against the seawall. New trace – longest ride was only 179 yards – swear it felt much longer.
