I'm from southern California and I may be setting myself up to have fewer and fewer surfs there in the future. Today, I would give G-Land a 4 out of 10. Naturally....there'll be a difference between my 10 and yours. But one thing is for sure, I've been fortunate enough to see high quality waves on almost every section of the reef minus beyond Speedies. Not many people have seen that section either.... My point is that today's 4 here was a 9 out of 10 back home. If I can't permanently live here at Bobby's G-Land Surf Camp, I may have to start searching for a quality tree somewhere near!!!
So...I made it into the line-up at about 10:45, but beautifully there was no one to line-up behind. By 11:30 my head was truly burning up cause I had not stopped surfing/paddling/surfing/etc.. Three souls joined me after my first couple of waves and we traded off waves with a smile. I write souls cause it's much easier to feel that...see that...when your not in the middle of a hungry pack of individuals.
Photog John came up to us, stopped for a brief moment before continuing on up-reef to the more populus pack. Not many more though. Ended up getting that special window. If he parked below us, everyone from Money Trees would have migrated down.
Today's G-Land Surf Report: 3-4 foot (6-8 foot faces)...12 seconds @ 207*...~10 knot offshore....AND every section of the reef having a moment today with exception to Launching Pads and beyond top-end Speedies. That easily misjudgable ledge even had a couple of...well...ledges!
