August 5-6 2012

G-LAND ...   And we continue onwards with the same conditions from the 3rd and 4th... great winds, swell lining up along the entire point, a good feeling from the surfers in the water, and even the water warming up just a little.  Tomorrow i'm gonna use a thermometer and see what the temp really is.  I'm thinking it's somewhere around 75 degrees now... what's that in Celcius...24 degrees or so.

The 5th  dropped in size from the day before, but still about 10 foot faces.  Today the swell jumped right back up and we had solid double overhead on the sets and tubing on most of the waves.  Moneytrees going strong with the most consistent sets hitting up on the main peak, but the Fang was setting up nicely almost as much.  Launching Pad into the 1st section of Speedies doing nicely too.

Somebody said "it's groundhog day out here."  Pretty amazing scenario to replay itself everyday.  Conditions have been epic.   No massive swells yet this season, but plenty of high quality 2x overhead days this season.  But something solid is showing on the near forecast so maybe i'll be writing about that big swell we've been missing.
