Description:
Trip Schedule was to do some "Island hopping" down the S/W coast of France.
Weather conditions are perfect for a shopping walk along the promenades, but surf is totally missing. So we change decisions and go down south to Gironde with a one day stop at Les Conches. Hope to find a bit of swell at the Medoc.

Description:
I see we have jumped a hundred years forward? Anyway good swell all this week! The river was chest to shoulder high + this morning, 6:30AM-9:30AM. Clean, glassy conditions with some nice peaks over by the north wall at Baracudas. Take off deep, run out in front of the wave, then pull a hard bottom turn followed by a backhand snap off the lip, then work the shoulder all the way across Middles to the south wall at Crabs.
Wednesday: Wave of the day: River Bob took off deep on a shoulder high peak, got a cover up and a nice wall all the way across to Crabs.
Thursday: Wave's of the day: Fisherman Mike's head dip deep inside the curl. My steep head high peak, hard, deep, backand bottom turn, smack the lip, line up the bowl, hard off the bottom and smack the lip again, blast out on to the shoulder with the wave breaking on my shoulder, hard cut back ... and fell off ... oh well!
Friday my nose ride across Crabs: (Photo by Tom)
Saturday: Clean conditions with fast glassy walls from Middles to Crabs. Nose ride on a small snapper all the way across Crabs and then stepped right on a Stingray's back ... good luck it did not wack me!
Saturday ... almost the same shot ... notice the hair cut! (Photo by Tom)

Description:
Great day.
Looked deceiving at first. Looked really choppy, the wave periods were probably 4 seconds.
But when I went in, they were fairly powerful for their size.
When low-tide went to high-tide, the breaks were long and good. When high went to low, the waves got shallower towards the shore.
Called my friend Wes halfway through the day, and we surfed to the evening.
Careful on the right towards the mouth of the river. Very shallow beach with a couple rocks.
Gulls started showing up in the middle of the afternoon and swarming the middle of the ocean. Freaked me out because of sharks, but Wes assured me that it's probably just baitfish.

Good first outing - great weather.
Managed to get one great wave - felt like I was going supersonic (til I hit the beach!)
Good fun - just need to work on the timing.
Only problem was the difficulty getting back into the water as the tide came in. As it got closer inland the power in the waves actually kept throwing me back out - not only me but the other three boarders who were also there (so I felt a little better).

Tyler and I caravanned up to Jenness after the waves were dying out in The Wall.
Jenness is always big on the North end after everything else dies out in NH, and today was no different.
Started getting really difficult paddling out because the waves were too close in together. Exhausting, actually.
God Bless the hurricane.
Bad for the Hampton Seafood Festival, though. My wife showed up at the festival afterwards with Joni, and met up with them afterwards for free hot dogs, a burger and ice cream.

Description:
Finally some good waves! Dawn patrol "Ray Bay" San Gabriel Rivermouth, Los Alamitos Bay, Seal Beach. Perfect conditions, after week's of onshore, South 'Catalina Eddy' wind and knee high crumble. Early morning negative, building to a five foot plus late morning high tide and smooth glassy conditions. A mix of fading NW windswelll and building S/SSE groundswell from Chile with bigger southern hemi, coming up from Pitcairn, peaking Thursday plus new swell from New Zealand still in the forecast!
The river was chest to shoulder high with occasional bigger sets on the the tide push. At low tide we had 'point break' lines coming in from the 'Middle's' across 'Crabs'. A little walled with sections but pick the right wave and fun, fun, fun. As the tide came in the break moved over to the north wall at 'Baracuda's' and got bigger and better!
Wave of the morning: Mark Burke's rail grabbing, back-door peak, tube.
For about an hour it was going off! Head high peaks ... long rights across the bowl or snappy short left-handers. Got worked on a big left peak. Took off deep in the bowl, came up and out off the bottom as the lip peeled over, then the backwash and refraction off the breakwater pushed the wave back into itself! It jumped up to a couple of feet overhead and the wall vanished into a square box! I started free falling down the sheer face, then it concussed, boom, on back of my board (thought it was going to break in half). Just swatted my board like a bug and blew me up ... I had my wetsuit top pulled down to my waist and I finished up nose down, with my wetsuit around my knee's and my bare butt sticking up in the soup!
Wednesday morning update:
This morning we had plenty of size from building SE/SW southern hemi swells but no NW to cross it up, so pretty walled out. If you picked the right wave it was "Speed Racer" all the way!
Spooky Movie:
The fog was a big problem, it rolled in so thick, at one point you could barely see the end of your board! I was out at Cuda's by the north wall when visibility vanished. Got totally disorientated, drifted over to the middle of the river mouth and started paddling the wrong way, out to sea! If I had come across another lone surfer with a better sense of direction, I would have finished up in the shipping lanes!
After that nasty shake-up, paddled inside, caught a set wave across and stayed in the pack at Crab's by the south breakwall! Fog never did lift while I was out there, even past 9 AM. You still could not see the breakwall, as I quickly found out. Hooked up on a nice shoulder high screamer across the inside sandbar on my 7'2" Super Fish. Steep take off, couple of quick pumps across the walll and it started to tube, crouched down and grabbed the outside rail ... just grinding; then I saw a dark shape rushing at me, holy shit ... the rocks ... BAIL OUT!
Wave of the morning: Surfer Tom's high line, high speed, wall.
Thursday Morning update:
Clean, clean, clean but smaller and really crowded! Some nice nose ride's across the inside sandbar by Crab's. Photo thanx to Tom.
