Patch Time





The Patch is back. No...not the one on my chin....the surf spot. South swell with offshore wind made for some idyllic conditions today.

Strangely as I drove to the coast, I was wondering about Hans who I hadn't seen of late. Guess I'm a little psychic, 'cause there he was when I pulled in. He had surfed the Patch late yesterday and was back for more.

We paddled into waist to chest high waves of dream shape. For a solid hour the place was entirely ours! We traded wave after wave and hoots of enthusiasm. These waves just kept on giving with long workable faces to carve.

Looking at my self portrait, I may also carve off my own scruffy patch pretty soon.

surf CAMP



I caught this flick 'on demand' last night and would give it about 1 ½ stars. No worries, it’s a freebie (not worth paying to view). In fact watching the trailer would likely suffice.... though I admit to finding this over the top Jaws rip off to be kind of a kick.

Yes it is tasteless and lacks character development. However they did throw in some good surf music and some competent wave riding, as well as a giant croc with lots of tude. Kind of an amusing parody of itself really. I only intended to glance at it for several minutes, but hey.
