Never seen so much rain, 72 hours of heavy rain. I took a look at long beach but headed to Chestermann's. Big clean surf in front of the small rock island, but had to stick 30 meters to the right with some 'advanced' surfers as it was my first day (+no buddy). Rip current swept a beginner surfer out, bobbing along in torrential rain, he just disappeared, hope he is well ....
No windsurfers, kiters or sup's around.
Got a few waves, short rides, given the wave size I should've had lots of fun ... but they would close out too fast without a proper break. Other surfers didn't get much either (and my old 6'3 surfboard,no volume, was just right).
Dave, thanks for going to Wreck Beach and taking pictures Saturday morning (hb 0.8m), I though it would be slightly bigger.
Tuesday there may be some surf, I can't tell from forecast. But I think you are getting good at it. If wind tanks and you are headed for SUP I'll join you.
