| Comments: |
A relief after yesterday's debacle
despite the poor conditions and mediocre waves. Landed
a few really late drops and floaters, but had trouble with
the weak shoulders that would look steep but die fast when
I tried to crank a top turn. Stayed out too long looking for
that one last wave in and settled for a little one in the
rivermouth.
