Yeah, still looks glassy and fun for a couple hours Tuesday morning!

The Cape to the Pier, waist to rib high plus (the swell should be in before daybreak, 3.5 feet at 10 seconds), if its 10 seconds, it may be bigger.  Satellite should see some chest high plus sets.  Winds look to be SSW in the 5 to 8 mph range, which means semi-glass to glass up North here, and Glass in Satellite Beach.

Wednesday morning will be smaller, but should also have some semi-glass to glass, so the only issue is the fact that it is low tide going high.  But there will be plenty of spots breaking, just keep a flexible mind open for your favorite reef breaks.

Have a great Morning!

Tuesday as of tonight, is looking to be a 3.5 foot swell 10 seconds, which may be a ground swell.  Which could mean, Waist to chest at the Cape and Pier, and chest to shoulder high in Satellite Beach.

Right now the winds are showing SSW in the 5 to 10 mph range.

Maybe something like to the left for the Cape.

An awesome collection of footage from Teahupoo this year, incredible drops, Laird Hamilton SUP surfing, and lots of Gnarly wipeouts :)

This is direct from the National Weather Service website “The first tropical storm of the Atlantic tropical season has formed in the Gulf of Mexico. The center of Tropical Storm Andrea is forecast to reach the coast of the Florida Big Bend on Thursday afternoon or evening, and then move over southeastern Georgia and eastern South Carolina Thursday night and Friday. The main concern with Andrea is very heavy rainfall that could lead to flooding.”

MORE CHOP W SOME SIZE FOR TODAY AND SATURDAY in the waist to shoulder high face range down South in Satellite, and smaller at the Cape and Pier with 15 to 20 mph onshore winds.  Sunday could have clean light onshore winds, in the 5 to 8 mph range, with waist high plus waves.

Thursday surf at the Pier, around 6 :30 PM last night was rib to chest maybe, but very fun drops.  If u waited, which I did , some long (longboard rides were to be had).  A brutal paddle out for shore.  Had to walk 1/4 mile south of the Pier (longboard), in order to get out, before the south to north current had me on top of the pier.  But it was worth it.  Had to wait 15 or 20 minutes for a wave, which they were only breaking when I drifted to the Pier (behind it), caught 2 fun waves and headed in.

There were two other guys out, a shortboarder getting plenty of rides, another guy who I couldn’t see much, and myself, picky and waiting for the wave that was worth the paddle back out on a 10.0 foot board :)

The video below, is some nice footage of clips of a Surf contest in Iceland, where the water temp was 2° Fahrenheit, Ouch!  But the guys shredded, and made it look like warm water reflexes :)

IS THIS THE BIGGEST RECORDED WAVE EVER PADDLE INTO? … Well, watch the video :)

>>>Published on May 6, 2013by Billabong (thus the quotes/arrows :)   )

Shawn Dollar (Santa Cruz, CA) describes what led up to his 61-foot world record wave at Cortes Bank on December 21, 2012. At the 2013 Billabong XXL Big Wave Awards, the ride earned Dollar earned $30,000 by sweeping both the Pacifico Paddle Award and the XXL Biggest Wave title. For more info see the event website at http://www.BillabongXXL.com.<<<;

Wednesday, we have a little more surf coming in perhaps, a little 2 to 3 foot wind swell.  Today looks to be some knee high glass at the Pier for the right tide.

TUESDAY MORNING SURF, IS LOOKING AWESOME!  BUT………….The winds have been a little finicky, but as it stands, the Cape is looking to be Chest high and semi-glass in the morning, maybe glass, and in Satellite Beach, look for Shoulder to Head high, with some 1 foot overhead sets.  The actual 14 second period swell rolls in tonight. (yeah we had a 30 hour tease with the first one), more below:  THE VIDEO BELOW, COULD BE COMPARABLE TO WHAT WE HAVE Tuesday AM , but for that good, I will give it only a 50% chance :)

It looks to be SSW winds at daybreak in the 8 to 10 mph range, so in Satellite Beach, that is offshore, but for the Cape, that can be sideshore and/or slight offshore, but at 8 to 10 mph, it won’t be mirror glass, but still fun!  GET OUT EARLY, WHY?  IT LOOKS LIKE THE WINDS WILL BE OFFSHORE UNTIL MAYBE 10:00 AM, so don’t plan on trying to catch mid-tide at 9 am.

Wednesday, could be offshore for 2 to 4 hours also, same size, or a head smaller.  The winds look to be more West on Wednesday, so it could be mirror glass for everyone, North and South.

EXCELLENT SURF IN SATELLITE BEACH TODAY  :)

Weather.com held consistent, as it is usually on for me, if I do a Melbourne Beach, Satellite Beach, Cocoa Beach and Cape Canaveral check so I can see the trend from South to North. It must be a high pressure causing the friendly wind conditions this week, for a lot of Wind Swell with size rolling in, I haven’t looked.  More about today, and later in the week below…

This is part six of a Video series, featuring mainly Kohl Christensen.  The one I posted 3 or 4 posts back, was the 40 foot plus faces in Mullaghmore Head, Ireland in 40 ° water , Ouch!, that Danilo Couto and a few others did a great tow-in session, and a few nominations for the Ride of The Year Entry for Billabong XXL 2013.  The video below, is some epic Mexican Pipeline Escondido, with Kohl, Greg Long and some massive 30 to 40 foot plus face waves and all paddle in, NO TOW!  Escondido, is one of the least User-Friendly beach breaks for big waves, but , they all managed to make the session look totally worthwhile and surviveable :)

Today, Thursday morning, It was solid rib to chest high, glassy, lefts were quite hollow, though when I paddled out today around 7:40 AM, it was 45 minutes before high tide, so it was a little tough to grab a wave, but when 30 minutes passed, that’s when the left’s did their thing, and the rights had just perfect , long workable walls.  Many 100 plus yard rides to be had.  That’s what always put’s a smile on my face.  Of course , only 3 other people out, well that also keeps one in high spirits.  One after another, even a little cover from a couple vertical left, rail grabber drop-ins :)

We should have waves all week, in the rib to head high range, the bigger stuff coming closer to tuesday.  Offshore winds, well can’t tell yet, but when we see the “Window”, we will pass it on to ya.

Have a great Thursday, and I hope you enjoy the Video :)

THURSDAY MORNING, GLASSY AND RIB TO CHEST HIGH SURF, UNTIL 9:30 AM about…

I believe we will see waist to rib high at the Pier, and some Chest high surf on the sets in Satellite Beach, and a little small in between the two spots.

We only have a dawn to 9 or maybe lucky 10 with 4 to 8 mph SW to West winds and then it kicks around to onshore NE winds, so get out early!

No pics today, have fun!

MONDAY MORNING SURF !

Waist high at the Cape, with North winds 5 to 10 mph, should be semi-glassy, and Satellite Beach should be Chest High with NNW winds semi-glassy until maybe 9 AM, in the 5 to 10 mph range.  Could be lots of rain at daybreak and Thunderstorms by 10 or 11, but be in the water by 7 AM!  High tide at 5:30, going low which is Ultimate!  About a 2 hour window for possible glass, but from Lori Wilson to the Cape, it should be fairly clean with the North winds until they kick up over 10 to 15 mph.

KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR Chest high clean surf at the Pier on Friday!
