600 Hours to go…

…but the forecasts only go out 180 hours.

Going to want to keep an eye on the stormsurfing.com wave prediction model for the full pacific. Watch the systems build from the southern ocean and work their way over open water to Costa Rica!

6/30 – Shoulder high, occasionally overhead waves with good to perfect shape
7/1 – Near epic day here. Light offshore winds early, then strong offshore winds with good shape, overhead on the sets
7/3 – Waist to head high, fair shape but weak and slow on full high tide
7/4 – Clean waist to head high waves with good shape.
7/6 – Arrival of a new swell. It is head high with occasional sets that are a few feet overhead (bigger if you are short)
7/7 – Rain this morning but the skies cleared, the wind turned offshore for a while and it turned out to be a decent session
7/8 – Glassy head high waves with good shape. More than a few cover ups
7/10 – Low tide DP, swell filled in by 8 then chest to a foot overhead with good shape
7/11 – Super clean morning with mild offshore winds, head high glass

In anticipation of Pura Vida 2006

6/16 – Clean, shoulder high to several feet overhead with good shape
6/17 – Waves were head high to occasionally 4 feet over. Shape was good on the high tide and began to section out as the tide dropped
6/18 – Overhead to double overhead waves with good shape
6/19 – Overhead waves but poor shape
6/20 – Offshore winds, head high and very occasionally double overhead with good shape. About as good as it gets here.
6/21 – Less size, less clean, more offshore, more closeouts
6/22 – Sunny skies, no wind, and waist to head high waves.
6/23 – Shoulder to occasionally head high with fair shape
6/27 – Beautiful morning with offshore winds, shoulder to head high with good shape
6/29 – Smaller swell “longboard” day – still looks pretty big to me!
