It's Official ... Wave Season is Here

It looks like the waves are officially here. We've got a small north swell that's been generating some smallish waves on the north shore the last few days. Yesterday was a very fun day on 4.5 with some small shoulder to head high waves at Uppers. Today was very similar. Waves were a little bigger, wind was a little more up and down. But overall, we're starting to get some genuine down the line wave riding. Lowers is still pretty small - about knee to waist high with a couple of slightly smaller sets. There were some very nice clean sets at Uppers in the late afternoon today. Looks like we might be getting our first advisory level swell later this week. That probably means mast-high+ at Uppers, bigger at Hookipa and a bit smaller probably at Lowers. Hookipa is infested this week with the Red Bull Kite Event, so don't plan on getting your sailing in there.

BTW, on an adminstrative level, I've been getting an annoying amount of comment spam lately from losers trying to get links to their totally unrelated sites by posting automated comments. So, I've instituted an increased bit of hassle to leave comments. You have to log in and you have to do the little word verification thing. Pain in the ass I know, but I'm tired of deleting comments from people trolling for links to their French fashion websites. Hopefully this will work. If I still get unrelated comments I'll probably just end up disabling comments altogether.
