Description:

I knew the swell was coming.But at 9am, it was completely flat. And I have to surf before 12 because we will go for a trip.

I decided to come back at 10h30. Waves were 50cm... I wait half an hour and waves increase until 70cm. I jumped into the water just to surf something.

But after 20mn, swell increased and I get fun 1,20m waves:

0808japan016 the right started to work

But the swell continued to increased until 1,50 solid!

As I was alone and the outside current was strong, I decided to stop.
