It's been a great start to spring 2012 with a nice low pressure sitting out in the Atlantic and a blocking high over the UK meaning offshore winds and plenty of small, clean swell every day! Even the sun is shinging and we have highs of 18 degrees all weekend :)
I had an insanely perfect surf after work on Weds evening. 3-4ft reef with only 3 surfers in and good vibes. I had some lovely waves, nice, steep, fast and hollow take offs and my board is flying with the new 3 fin set up I'm trying out.
The lefts were lining up perfectly over the reef with a slower section followed by a racing hollow slab on the inside to make or break you. I went right on a few kamikaze waves and only bounced off the bottom once - great fun though and not too dangerous with a big tide over the reef :)
The only thing messing things up slightly are the tides as they've been huge so earl surfs have been tricky!
More clean waves today so an after work surf is definitely on the cards followed by some cold ale.
The weekend looks insane and then there's next week to look forward too and the clocks go forward today so we can all enjoy some 5am dawn patrols shortly.
