Reunion session with Mank and Greggory, this being Mank's first session in SB since moving to great warm south. My stories of epic days in mid January all seemed like lies when we saw the buoys were not cooperating this weekend. We had to go a anyway, Mank on his DanO shortboard and Greggory and I on our lonboards. Deveraux was showing ankle high peelers and sands wasn't much better. No one was out for miles. For good reason. We traded waves for as long as we could, which in this case was until the sun went down. Even being as small as it was, it was fun. Greggory and I paddled around the point looking to catch on in at Deveraux. This was impossible. There simply was nothing there. The funnest part was paddling over the ledge when a few waves came in. We were in a little too far, the water was uber clear and as the water drained over the ledge we almost got sucked in. That is one long ledge.
