Winds SE 13. 16m. Rogue Wave Board. Gap Session. Water: murk from chop. Waves: hip high. Short session again due to thunderstorm rolling in. Haven't done wave work in a while! Awesome thing happened: a turtle came up for air right where I was getting into the water. His reaction was priceless! I hope I didn't startle him too much.

Winds: WSW 8-12. 16m. Spleene Board. Gap Session. Water: slight murk for most. Most salad gone. Waves: light chop, otherwise flat. Got in just in time to do a few tacks before the wind died. Oh well. That's August here.

Winds: SW 14. 16m. Spleene Board. Opal Beach Session. Water: pea soup. Waves: just a few hips. Smoother. Phillip snapped a line on his old 14m. At least it waited on the inbound tack. Not as good as yesterday, but I'll take anything I can get during this dry spell.

Winds: W 15. 16m. Both boards, mostly Spleene. Opal Beach Session. Water: pea soup full of june grass. ick. Waves: a few hip high, but still smooth. Good soul session. Had plenty of power. Was afraid to get the salad on me though..first hour my head never got wet. Rode in some nice curlers. Fun. Packed up just in time: big squall came in from the north. Good thing I don't mess around when it comes to weather.

Winds: SW 16. Forecast way off again. 16m. Spleene Board. Opal Beach Session. Water: freaking cabbage soup all the way until second sand bar. Disgusting. Waves: ankle with a little chop, mostly butter. Cancelled early because of thunderstorm growing in the north. Think I have theory on forearms: suntan lotion, then wash hands makes a better grip.

Winds: SW 11-14. Forecast 7. 16m. Spleene Board. Opal Beach Session. Water: couldn't really see the salad within first sandbar, but water was green. Murk further out. Waves: knee high first sandbar, chop. Forecast wrong again, but I managed to squeeze in a session that got better as the sun set. Tourists impressed.
