Santa Barbara Area Surf Report
    
  June Overview 1999 Overview  
    
Date/Time: Tuesday, June 1st, 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
Location: Secos / Leo Carrillo / Arroyo Sequit
Weather: Sunny, calm skies clouding over and going light onshore by midday.
Conditions: Excellent but rapidly deteriorating to fair/poor from noon on with building southerly bump.
Swell: Small combination of southern hemi swells, combined 2-3 ft at 14 and 20 s from 195-205 deg.
Surf: Very setty with long totally flat spells, chest to head high on the sets.
Comments: Early on a crew of about four of us played round-robin on the outside reefs, everyone getting their fair share and very stoked. Waves rolling all the way through and holding unusually steep and peaky but very makeable sections. Lips hanging in mid-air begging to be hit or floated over. Things held on for an hour or so until the tide started coming in and by noon it was getting grim. It took an hour or so for me to get a satisfactory 'one last wave in' at that point, but I finally got it.
