Petey and I head out for some shortboarding at sands during an evening glass off. While checking Deveraux along the cliff I saw three whale spouts out in the water up towards the point. A lot of activity in the parking area, a lot of people gearing up to go out. Deveraux was longboardable yet looking a little peaky and disorganized. Sands was it's typical sprintime self, peaky windswell that would ocaiosonaly produce a nicely organized peak. Pete and I traded rights and lefts for an hour and froze everything off ourselves. Had some super screaming fast rail grabbing lefts and failed to hit the lip backside, but managed some cutbacks to the wash. Frontside was easier and even got a tiny little head dip down in front of the cliff where it was jacking up a little bit. It was mostly stu's out there, but one of my favorite Sands ripsters was out. A guy who wears a lot of sunscreen on his face whom I've dubbed "Braveheart". Braveheart shreds out there.
