  • The waves have turned on in California, We scored some epic 56th street in Newport Beach and then we hiked down to Lower Trestles so get some epic waves with no one out!
    Also I just wanted to shed some light on the massive sewage spill in LA, It has to be know to the company's that control these things that this CAN NOT HAPPEN!!! 17,000,000 MILLION GALLONS WERE SPILLED INTO THE WATER! AHHHHHH

    Aaahhh this reminds of a trip I had when a friend and I surfed 6-8ft lowers with very few people out back in 2014. Mind you it was pretty damn windy, but the waves still held their own and were a blast to ride. I think we surfed for about 5 hours straight. I was so thirsty and hungry afterwards I had a coke, a chocolate shake, burger, fries, and chicken fingers at Ruby’s diner that evening. And then shit my brains out the next day. Good times.

I was super nervous the first time in that pack, I caught something but forget, and had to come in, but went back out and caught a legit left I got the priority in the middle of the pack, that was the hardest part. I didn’t realize the push the left had, I got to drop down some steps in the wave and it was a good wave rode it to the end, I wanna go back when it’s glassy

    Always used to take the road to Uppers and walk down the beach. The MEAT bike generation (Me Me Me, MEAT MEAT MEAT) so seldomly gets to experience the humble trek down with just the bear essentials and Mom or Dad. There used to be a great long mudbank on top of the beach along the inside point at Uppers with lots of shrubbery. More compact earth made the walk easier. Now there is only sand. Also, a huge driftwood tree trunk (lizard haven) used to be the halfway house to stash your stuff and hydrate before surfing Lowers. The thick, deep sand is what makes going that way so difficult, although it's a shorter distance overall. (9:53) That was Trestles in its heyday (2002-2012). Surf Lowers all day. Get a big bombing left all the way to the beach. Step off on the sand. Then go take a post-session selfie with Uppers rifling off in the background. However, I haven't scored great waves at Uppers since Sept 2016. That day I had my own aromatic, potent homegrown seeded chronic. I even gave some away to a total stranger in the hopes that they might grow some for themselves. It was my favorite batch of homegrown chronic that I ever had. The mudbank may be long since washed away, but the herbal essence and spirit of sharing and gratitude remains, no matter how heartless the kids of this generation may be. Because today, what Lowers has come to be all about is no longer who surfs the best, it's all about WHO'S the best at bullying their way into waves. (Remember, ALL of Trestles proper is San Diego county and has only been open to the public for just over 50 years. Meanwhile, Lowers left itself is only about 40 years old.) 💯
