In some more regurgitation, Surfline's "California Surf Alert" has piped in about Genevieve, saying because of it's position and angle it will most likely give us some good surf. They also claimed it would be a Hurricane by 4am this morning but the 2am discussion says it is still a Tropical Storm.
Last night's session was smaller then the night before but more organized. In addition, crowds were much bigger. Rincon, in all it's knee to waist high glory, had upwards of 20 people in the cove at dusk, whereas the day before had one.
Also there was a surf kayaker out there who was one of kind because he:
1) respected wave priority
2) didn't sit outside and try to dominate the peak
3) didn't scream out of control down the line nearly killing me
4) let you know when he wasn't going to make it so you had a shot.
this is the first surf kayaker i've seen that followed the unwritten code of wave-riding etiquette. If more of them did the same, maybe we wouldn't be so bitter at them (maybe).
