Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
Usual on Low to mid tide but it will take a higher tide on big swells... best swell direction= sw... straight south doesn't get in.. west swells are unruly here..a nw will get in here if it is 10+ everywhere else... that's when Cropley's might break providing there has been enough sand pushed out to form a sand bar from trafalgar creek... this wave is gutless under head high... and gets good head high to double overhead..... |

1st time
First time to surf! Took a lesson from a great teacher. Got up first time! I am hooked. Very sore a few days later, need to get a board and a wet suit and get back out there!

First trip out after softball season ended. Nobody from the group showed and there were only about 20 people out at all of San O. Surfed straight out at Old Man's. Waves were rollers, and small. Got a few decent ones.
