This was Saturday morning May 14, 2011 in South Cocoa Beach.

Chad with his son Chase, Sunny, Jim  and  Dave the Ripper caught a great surf sesh from a 3 or 4 day swell, nice and glassy, yeah there were  closeouts, but definitely some great waves in the waist to stomach high range, with maybe some bigger sets.

Chase, (Chad’s son) came along to put on a show (see photos below 🙂  along with the surf sesh.  Even if the waves were flat, it wouldn’t have been boring.

Also, the incoming wind swell for Memorial Day Weekend looks like it’s kicking in a tad more size and power.  And it may even rollover till Thursday now, and………bring in some waves Sunday morning instead of waitin till the afternoon.

By Sunday afternoon, we should see some waist high waves at the Cape here, yeah 10 to 20 mph onshores, but like I said yesterday, we aren’t supposed to have waves by now, so get excited.   Monday ought to have some fun chop, with a drop in the swell

by late afternoon/evening.

Then Tuesday, the size may kick in to maybe some chest high waves at the Cape with bigger sets down south, though the period (power) of the swell drops off until Wednesday some time where the size drops but the power kicks in a little

Chase thinking, not a care in the world...and spending a great day at the beach with the "Old Man :)"

Enjoy the pics, and the Memorial Weekend waves.
