Mast-high Memorial Day

We got a beautiful Memorial Day present yesterday in the form of a very late season north swell that brought absolutely spectacular, beautiful mast-high waves to Uppers at Kanaha. The wind was better in the morning, a bit stronger than the afternoon. Once again, 4.5 was the call. The wind dropped and switched to a bit side-off so I was wanting the 5.0 to get upwind and through the break, but the offshore direction cleaned up the waves and made for big, glassy walls of water.

I took the day off from playing today to work and recover, but I hear there are still some waves and it looks like the wind is in the 4.5 to 5.0 range again today. The last few days we've seen the wind go a bit up and down. Nice 4.5 for an hour or so, then it will drop to 5.5 for an hour then come back. You just gotta time it right and you'll be happy though. Long range forecast is calling for more light to moderate trades.
