Still Here…
June 14th, 2009
I haven’t forgotten about the site, but the conditions haven’t been very good for over a month now so I haven’t been checking the skim too much. Fortunately the sand has been building up and there are some south swells on the way so things might be getting better at last. The skim looked decent at Marine St. today but a bit troughy. I had one pretty good session at Windansea a while ago but that’s been about it. Anybody else getting any skim? Comment or post in the forum if you’ve been getting any waves… I’d be interested to hear. Looking forward to some fun summer days. See you all out there.

i went to marine st today and yesterday..it would have been perfect if it wasn’t troughy. the slope is great and the swell was pretty good. i looked at the wall today and windansea yesterday. the wall looked kelpy and not great. there were 4 skimmers there, but i’m not sure why. there were about 7 at marine today. yesterday, windansea honestly looked the best of the 3 but there was a ton of touristy looking people and kids playing in the water, and the rocks were all exposed. hopefully the trough will go away and marine will be good sometime this week, maybe next weekend? does someone with more knowledge of how these beaches work know how long till that will go away?
Ya the trough has been the big problem recently. There’s no specific time when that goes away – it comes back and goes away at random intervals during the summer, same as the Wall during winter. Usually late summer conditions (august september) are better than early (June July).
