G-Land woke me up this morning with the beautiful sound of a new swell. It was the first time since I arrived that my walk up to the beach was overly exciting. I wish I didn't have to write this, but from early morning on through sunset, the wind was the only element out of sync for a high quality day to happen at G-Land.
G-Land could have been epic. Full moon, strong south swell about 205 degrees, and very few surfers in the jungle. I watched Speedies draw the lumped up swell through the high tide, the Ledge receive some explosive peaks at the tides opposite end, Money Trees handle everything, and about 5 Bombora sets break in the later afternoon. It was difficult to see everything have the potential to be working all in one day, but IT DIDN'T. And that was because one element, the proper wind, was missing.
By 4:30, a powerful storm front came across Grajagan Bay and brought with it a booming thunderstorm and dropped a solid amount of rain. It was refreshing to sit under the 2 new bale's out front and watch, feel, and smell the storm go passed us.
Hoping for a more in sync day tomorrow.
Until then....MICHAEL
