Squally Monday
Monday looked promising initially. When I got to the beach around 2 it looked like really nice 4.5. And it was for about 20 minutes before the squall came through. Squalls typically shut the wind down and sure enough I made it back to shore with about 2 minutes to spare before the wind dropped.
Waited around since often the wind will come back once the squall clears but it stayed cloudy. Stuck the 4.5 on my big board and practiced heli-tacks.
Today it's cranking at Kanaha as I type - 29 but due East. Typically that means a slog and slam scenario. Slog, ankle or knee deep to the windline then get slammed with the full force of the wind. I don't feel like dealing with that today.
Waves are making a Fall comeback. The last few days there's been small waist to shoulder high waves rolling in at Uppers. Lowers isn't seeing any of it yet.
