Saturday May 15
Time: In the water at 10:30
Location: Staircase: Just south of County Line
I was in the water for a little over an hour and a half, the whole area was incredibly crowded, as the weather was pretty nice, and we had a nice swell crossing up from the N and SSW. About waist to shoulder high on the best sets, water was fairly chilly with a slight onshore breeze. Really fun day, only a handful of guys in the line up, was able to get a number of really nice rides. Rode my usual board, 6.0 Kennedy thruster, and despite it being a beachbreak board (my main board for El Porto), it still handles superbly at a pointbreak like Staircase. Worked on my cutbacks, and on pulling harder snapbacks. The larger sets tended to closeout, so the waves helped me in getting a little speed to launch off the lip. On a funny note, saw a very friendly seal, and sat next to two guys from Norway. In all honesty, I had no idea they even had surf there.
Overall, a great session
