Went up to the inlet this morning to see about a dp session. Got there predawn and the parking lot was already busy with wetsuits being donned. Up in the contest area hiding in the wind shadow of the tent I could see a couple of surfers already on it. Moderately strong NNE winds and about 45 degrees air temp. Very messy but with some good size chunks coming through. I turned around and I saw I had been joined by about a dozen young lady surfers all shivering in their wetsuits. But they got their game face on and headed up the beach for a pre contest surf. Within minutes the line up was full and the girls ripping getting surprisingly good rides. Conditions continued to improve up to contest time with Heat one in the water at 8.
I was going to paddle out but felt a little odd being the only guy among 20 teenage girls. But my morning was made when I saw Carolyn coming out after her surf and was able to congratulate her on this past season and making the 2018 tour. ------------------------- Replace turf grass with native plants that don't need irrigation and synthetic fertilizers or chemicals that can go into our waterways and ocean |
