just inattention. But whatever it was, it was good and it gave me an hour and a half of uncrowded conditions in very consistent waist to occasional chest high walled up, fast reeling and peeling zippers.I paddled out to four people in the line-up. Codi had been out for a while and bailed almost right away. The two longboarders were sitting too far over, got frustrated and paddled in after about a half hour. That left me and fellow Angulo 10-2 stand up surfer Dave C alone with about 30 or 40 waves. We surfed by ourselves for an hour.
Near the end of the session, Gunnar paddled out on his 10-6 Jr. Lifeguard competition paddleboard and proceeded to rip, riding on his knees and even standing up a couple times. A testament to incredible balance. John S. paddled
out on his 10-10 Angulo but by then, the tide had dropped way below where it should have been to produce the necessary water depth and anyway, I was done. I was surprised that it was as good as it was for that spot, and that it lasted as long as it did, given the very low tide.Rest tomorrow and prep for Thanksgiving Day.
