No wind and a nice little tight period swell. Waist to chest in Cocoa Beach and breaking on the outside. The right sandbar makes all the difference.

Weiland agrees.

I sure hope the next swell is better than this oddball thing we've had for the last few days.

The buoys have only been telling part of the story. Better than zip tho. Skills retention program.

While this past run of surf was only OK it paid to look around. There were "rip bowls" everywhere(most were useless) . It seems that the surf was arguably better in Cocoa Beach than many regular spots to the south. I performed an extensive search from Patrick to CB streets looking for a possible good "rip bowl" setup. It paid off on Sunday morning where I enjoyed a "X marks the spot" peak to myself with a defined channel on the right. I used my longboard for the first time in quite a while and was on a 5 minute max wait between waves. Three others eventually noticed the setup and rotated through. It was best first thing in the morning 7:30ish with the higher tide. I seem to recall Paradise had a really good "rip bowl" setup a while back that lasted a week or so. On the other hand the TOD or "trough of death" seems to be in full effect at most spots. I guess the high tide inside/shore break is our compensation for the current issue with the outside sandbar.

Kiddie Pool seems to be the only spot with a decent bottom, if the swell can overcome the shadow

I was stoked to see some variation in the bars. 10' deep holes and shin deep bars made for some unusually dumpy peaky surf. I saw the rip bowls mentioned above which is way cooler to me than the normal outside to inside dribble. First time seeing some little tubes in CFL in a while!
