SW WIND 10 TO 15 KT. WIND WAVES 3 FT. NW SWELL 12 FT AT 12 SECONDS.

I'm generally pretty optimistic about getting out and surfing...

I don't place a ton of faith in buoys, coast cams and forecasts...

But today, at 6am, I didn't even put my board in the car...

And when I pulled up to the sand I saw the tossed ruination...

I made the right call, but still watched marginal waves go unridden...

In the end, even the good waves were flawed, messy and erratic...

So I felt alright about not having committed fully to crappy surf...

That, and I still couldn't bend my left leg.
