All my best days had good-but-not-epic surf but were all nice days and most importantly, were uncrowded.

1. Father's Day at Rincon.
   I usually avoid the Con like the plague due to crowds and vibes but this day had only about 8 guys in the cove (plus me) for about an hour. Chest high west swell and super fun - great Father's day!

2. A warm and sunny Sunday afternoon in December at Hammies.
   Another one of those "only 6 guys out for about an hour before the crowd showed up" kind of days. Shoulder high and fun. One of the 6 was Shaun Tomson and unlike most pros was definitely not hogging all the waves, but definitely was shredding.

3. Lunch hour go-out last winter at Campus.

   I think the stu's were on vacation or something because there were only about 3 or 4 other guys out - warm and sunny and head high and better than usual form. Too bad I only had an hour!
