good morning. small ripples around the island again today. knee/waist high everywhere. north and south. trades back so look for some wind swell. had a blast last night hanging out with friends and listening to awesome live music. as far as i remember, i took some photos. going to download them now… anyway, get your sunscreen out today because it’s going to be HOT!!! see ya…
**i grew up surfing sandy beach and i swear sandy’s ain’t as good as it use to be. i remember back in the 80’s watching barry mamiya getting 6 second grab rail barrels, taz doing sick el rollo’s on his surfboard, and mickey neilson ruling out there. then you had jack the ripper drop kneeing on his morey boogie board right into the barrel. we were the groms back then surfing marco’s and pipe littles. we only paddled out to half point when the boys weren’t out. anyway, found this video of the 2007 USBA bodyboard sandy beach pro at half point. gosh, the waves were pretty dam good. not as good as the 80’s but still dam good…. might have to go surf there today….
