HURICANE MARIA Story-9/30/2017

Hurricane Humberto, welcome to my home break!!!

9/20/2019

Surfline screenshot of my favorite surf point break this morning. Can you blame me for loving this place???

You absolutely cannot better Friday’s surf conditions- full sun, temps in the seventies, clear skies, light westerly breeze for organizing the waves, and six feet at twelve seconds. PLUS, it was a weekday with few people.

Huge waves came in at thirty minute intervals, normally big waves every twenty minutes, and average sets every ten. The power of hurricane waves from an unseen storm that got no press attention was striking.
I hopped in with my shortboard quad. It was THE PERFECT board for this day, performing sharp bottom turns, lefts and rights on steep wave faces propelling me quickly down the line for never ending rides on uncrowded waves. I shared the day with one or two other people- nice, because I shouted “go ahead, take this one” to the guy I was sitting next to. “THANKS!!!”

Its unusual to be polite in hurricane waves. Usually, it’s a cat fight to see who gets to ride each wave.
