Nice rib to maybe chest high right at Johnson Ave. Surfer? Who? 1 of 2 shot sequence. From February 22 ene swell.

I’ll post more in the next week from a couple killer rides by Sunny, and Rip Van Mike who finally woke up after a few broken bones. He still ain’t over the hill, but I’ll save that for another day. It needs to be handled with care 🙂

Nice wave, the third shot it closed out, but the short burst looked really fun. Image 2 of 2 shot sequence. Photos by Oldwaverider

It was an awesome session late today! Started out rib to occasional chest high at the Cape, beautiful sets, nice drops with a few turns and a quick exit. I just watched and shot some images.

Ron I believe. Perfect form and smooth style for the "out of towner", just kidding. Image 1 of 5 in sequence.

Then Chad and I headed down South for an 11 AM sesh, and for the first half hour it was like 1 in 15 waves were makeable at best, but nice head high faces on the drop with a quick closeout, and then it changed. It started to hold up a little better, maybe 1 in 8 would hold up, and then we got some of those 70 to 100 yard shoulders pumping most and some times all the way to the beach. Almost all lefts. A few select rights. Brother Chad nailed at least 2 or 3 of em in the 100 yard plus range, with one solid, did I say solid?; 150 yard right from far outside, all the way to 1 foot deep water, and used that as his bus ride in 🙂 He smoked it. I got the perfect left (except for a small epileptic surge on a few re-entries) to take me most of the way in 🙂 A bunch of rail-grabbing left take-offs for chasing speed up high on the wave.

Image 2 of 5 shots in sequence. I believe its Ron.

Most of the outside sets were shoulder high, and maybe a head high set rolled thru every now and then. See new chart, compliments of thewavecaster.com here.

Surf Thursday is looking to be maybe thigh at the Cape and waist in Satellite. Strong strong offshore winds. They may even blow it flat tonight, but I suspect there may be a trickle for 2 hours in the morning and then done…………………

Beautiful wave, just a little too fast. Image 2 of 3 in sequence.

He tried his best. This was one of 3 guys I met on the boardwalk. They are doing the Engineer program from UCF.

Wednesday February the 22nd, for 3 days straight has appeared to be the “Big Sweet Day”…..Glassy at some point on Wednesday, and chest to head high waves, ranging from North to South….I’ll continue this update below…

JOHNSON AVENUE UNKNOWN SURFER – GALLERY , Here’s a plug for Old-timers…The photos gallery here are from February 5, Sunday, from Johnson Ave. I have some days that my pop ups are lookin the same, I don’t know who this is, but I’m stoked to see him out there.

A friend of mine through my church, Greg, had to quit surfing a little over three years ago cause it kept blowing out his shoulder. He turned 90 years old in 2011. He was hired the First year of N.A.S.A. , an Electrical Engineer I believe, and when N.A.S.A. was started in 1958, and he had surfed from then time until 2008 some time.

Turned into a clean thigh high cruiser. Image 2 of 3 in sequence.

Of course the reason he quit was because at 87, he also plays tennis 2 or 3 times a week, and since surfing is inconsistent and works your shoulders pretty hard, he’d best choose doing something where he could at least use his shoulder more consistently. SO THERE YA GOT IT, WE HAD TO DO A PLUG FOR OLD OLD TIMERS 🙂

He's gotta be stoked, it's all fun ! Image 3 of 3 in sequence.

Surf Update for Tuesday thru Thursday (2/21 – 2/23)…Tuesday morning we’ll have an ENE windswell showing some waist high waves maybe rib here at the Cape, and chest high down South until late afternoon when the full blown ground swell should hit. Before dark, we may have some just overhead faces down South and chest high plus here at the Cape, with ESE winds in the 7 to 10 mph range probably. The winds actually look to be backing down to under 10 mph thru the close of Tuesday day.

Wednesday, we ought to have some solid chest high lines at the Cape with some bigger sets, and shoulder to overhead down South in Satellite Beach, 2nd light. Winds sometime Wednesday maybe at day break, could go SSW around 10 mph, so your best call is somewhere South of 8th Street South to enjoy offshore winds. The Cape will probably have really clean form but not quite glass. SSW is kind sideshore to offshore for us. If you can make it South, awesome, it should be fun everywhere 🙂

Thursday, could have waist to chest high leftovers , North to South, with strong offshore winds in the 15 mph plus range.

Air & Water temps: Monday the air temps at the Cape show 53 ° at daybreak with 15 mph NNW winds (feels like 48), getting up to 65 ° by the high point. Tuesday looks to be 58 ° at daybreak climbing to 72 by mid-day, and the water temp will be 68 ° near shore. Wednesday, air temp warm up to about 77 for a high, so for 2 weeks from March, these are awesome warm temperatures and consistent waves. Get Excited !!

Hope ya enjoy the pics 🙂

Today was Chest high peaks peeling left and right, with A-frames at Hightowers 🙂 Well, it would have been nice if we had direct offshore winds, but…close enough, a little SSE to S, maybe SSW light. Only 8 or 10 of us out, and again, I didn’t even need a wetsuit, the water was hanging around 69 ° again.

A nice waist high right, yeah, unknown surfer on Johnson Avenue. Image 1 of 6 in sequence. Feb 5 2012 wind swell. Photos by Oldwaverider (Art)

The first set of photos are from an Unknown Surfer to me, at Johnson Ave on a nice right. (maybe one day I’ll find out the names of the unknowns 🙂 The Johnson Avenue photos were taken about 12:30 PM, around 40 minutes past low-tide.

Image 2 of 6 of a nice waist high right. Johnson Avenue Surfer

The second part of the slideshow, is from Hightower Beach with a guy on a chest to shoulder high left. I took those around 10:15, after the winds turned SSE from calm, so it wasn’t as glassy as when I first paddled out around 8:30.

The rights and lefts were working great, the lefts maybe had some more juice to them.

Nice style of this unknown Wave Carver :) Image 3 of 6 in sequence. — Nice style of this unknown Wave Carver 🙂 Image 3 of 6 in sequence.

Monday may have some knee to waist high glass with a high period in the daybreak AM to kick up the power. The winds turn offshore just after Mid-nite, out of the SW and coming around to WNW at daybreak in the 3 to 7 mph range. By 9 or 10 AM, it appears to turn onshore out of the SSE.

Still going...Image 4 of 6 sequence. Photos by Oldwaverider

I don’t think the winds will blow the remaining swell flat overnight, so fingers crossed for some knee to waist high waves, Cape to Satellite Beach respectively 🙂

After Monday’s leftover’s, I don’t see much of anything down the Pike, except some knee high plus stuff for the Pier.

Image 6 of 6. The guy kept going and closed the deal, I just ran out of film.

A nice long chest to shoulder high left, they were peeling really nice at Hightowers. Image 1 of 7 in sequence. Photos by Oldwaverider

After he did an off the lip, he re-entered into that part of Hightower that bowls up and it jaced up the wave before his second re-entry. Image 2 of 7 in sequence.

Today, we’ll be seeing weak chop/slop coming in, but by tonight and by Saturday morning, we should have some overhead chop down South, and chest to shoulder high here at the Cape.

Image 2 of 9 of a fun thigh to waist high right at Hangers, December 10 2010. Photos by Jeremy Dugan

Sunday, could be SSW at 5 -7 mph in Satellite Beach in the early morning, maybe until 8 or 9 AM. Canaveral and Cocoa Beach are showing South winds at daybreak. Should be chest to shoulder high from North to South respectively. Get it early! It will be high tide going low and at 8-9 AM it will be mid-tide, with Low tide around 11:50 AM Sunday morning. That’s your prime time with light winds and tide 🙂

Monday morning the swell drops way off, but…the final period strength of the swell rolls in Monday morning so at daybreak, it could have some waist high power with offshore winds until 8 or 9 Am, maybe.

We’ll give an update sometime Saturday to see how my 40 % “stick my neck out there” chance of offshore winds in Satellite Beach is falling into place 😉

New swell starts rolling in sometime Tuesday it looks like, another wind swell.

Incoming NE ‘ster windswell for maybe Monday thru Wednesday…I’ll get into that in a minute;

The photos here of Sunny were from a May 14 2011 ground swell that kicked up waist to shoulder high waves, perfect glass and barrels. These three shots were taken by Chad , and of Sunny on a nice left.

Sunny. Image 2 of 3 shot sequence. — Sunny. Image 2 of 3 sequence.

As far as incoming swell, other than the 2 foot fairly consistent knee to thigh high stuff we have had for the last week, we do have a Nor’easter that is predicted to blow from land to sea at a NW angle, so it looks like it will give us a steep NE windswell for perhaps Monday thru Wednesday.

There could be some head high faces, but mostly onshore winds, and by Tuesday afternoon, the models show the swell coming in more East than North which could allow some of this baby to hit the Cape, instead of letting Satellite Beach hog the whole show 🙂

As it progresses, we’ll let ya know.

Enjoy this awesome weather that the last two winters denied us. Oh, the water temp is the same at the Trident pier which hugs close to the barrier islands just west of the one mile buoy both showing showing 69 ° which you gotta love.

It’s hump day Wednesday, enjoy the remainder of your week and the weekend 🙂 A week from Friday is the Cape’s Friday Fest, so don’t forget about that street party!

SUNDAY MORNING UPDATE AT 8:30 AM; THE SMALL INCOMING SWELL WAS 3.5 FT AT 11 SECONDS AT THE 120, BUT……….it stopped coming in at 11 PM last night (Saturday night), which means about 8 or 9 hours travel time to our beaches, so it was here at maybe 8 AM, and then dropped to 2.5 ft at 10 seconds at the 120 at Midnight which is not the minimum we need for a swell to hit the beach. We need about 2.6 to 3 feet at 10 or 11 seconds to get a ground swell that is ridable here (Ross at CFL surf figured that one out). Sorry folks, no waves. Maybe a ripple for SUP’s and big long boards when the tide gets lower, but the winds turn onshore by noon. But have a great Sunday anyhow with the nice weather 🙂 Back to Friday nights update post below……..

A few Johnson Avenue Surfers, 2011 year in review………………photo gallery 🙂

Big, No. ……….Possibly fun and rideable, yeah 🙂 Tonight an Easterly Swell is creeping in and kicking out the steep NE swell we’ve had.

Thursday was great, waist high plus in Satellite, perfect glass, light 5 to 7 offshore winds. It was even comfortable without any suit. Yeah, I did have a rash guard on and it was 1:00 and a nice 60 degrees, so yeah that did help.

Anyhow, Saturday morn should bring some knee to rib high waves from the Cape to Satellite. Light offshore winds SW to West most of Saturday around 3 to 6 mph. I’d say, if it ain’t big enough

here at the Cape, pick your spot in Satellite at mid-tide high going low and you should have some waist high long lines somewhere.It will be 52 at daybreak, but by 9 AM sunny and 60 ° , so if you don’t want the suit to bog ya down, it will be rash guard-able.

Sunday, should be 6 to 9.5 inches bigger on the face, same air temps, offshore from the NW,

but……………………….., it will turn onshore by Noon or earlier. So if you’re gonna do Church, do it at 8, and be in the water by 9:30. May have some rib high waves down South and maybe some thigh high at the Cape.

DON’T FORGET CAPE CANAVERAL FRIDAY FEST TONIGHT! The band is “Vilifi” and they are damn good. (scuse the french). The Fest goes from 6 to 10 PM, great food, great beer, awesome local Art

This phenomenal year for waves apparently doesn’t want to give up yet……The most consistent run of good waves for us all year, along with at least 6 each 10 foot face plus perfect glass waves within Brevard County shores…

Today, or this morning looks really fun, and by late afternoon we have a new possible Christmas Day swell starting to push in. The swell is coming mostly from the East, so I don’t think we’ll get blocked out. We may even get lucky with the new swell hitting by 1 or 2 PM and have the winds still a little offshore. It’s SSW winds here at the Cape, yeah, kinda sideshore w a little offshore, but still looks really clean. By afternoon anyhow, we ought to see some waist high plus waves.

Dr. John got about the only available left during the sesh. He squeezed for about 7 or 8 shots on this ride, but the best wave shot was this one. Photo by Oldwaverider

Saturday, should produce some waist to chest high sets, and right now, the winds are showing W to NW until 9 AM Saturday here at the Cape, turning NNW till maybe 11 or 12 and then North. (6 to 8 mph then increasing to 10 to 15 mph once it goes N to NNE)

Christmas Day Sunday also ought to have something rideable for us, the winds we’ll have to wait and check tonight, but as it stands, it looks to be very light onshore for Sunday AM, around 7 mph SE at daybreak.

Have a great Winter Warm Water Day! 70.5° , gotta love it 🙂

When I was watching this guy, it was a trip to notice his style. It’s fact that he got 3 to 1 on rides compared to the other surfers that were in the water at the same time. (absolutely no debate on this 🙂 If I remember 5 or 6 people were still out on Johnson Avenue this day. (Maybe 11 AM ish) But he was all about knowing the wave he was on. On this sequence of 5 shots, when he dropped in, late…..on the wave, he went right back up to the lip instead of the normal bottom or mid-turn to try and pump the wall to outrun the lip.

Image 2 of 5 sequence. Big November 10 2011 ENE swell. Johnson Avenue photos.

But he used the lip to gain momentum, instead of the bottom white water, and this wave that would probably close-out on most surfers, he managed to make it a user friendly wall 🙂

Upcoming Surf !!!…….Maybeeeee, Saturday will give us glass, and something between waist and chest high waves with offshore winds. But, it is 4 days out, but at least the models are giving us a possible offshore day, and may even include some on Sunday, but with heavier

Funny thing was, these 5 shots took place in 3 seconds. Image 5 of 5

winds. This low could speed up or slow down, but it looks like a great chance of some size and offshores between Friday and Sunday.

In the mean time, it has given us some nice 4 to 6 foot face since Monday, semi-clean chop at times, like this morning, though smaller, it was very fun.

Big E-NE swell here for probably 5-6 days followed by a NE’ ster coming next Sunday…

Today (Monday), huge chop, today is the peak of the swell for size. We may have some 1-2 foot overhead waves at the Cape, and 4 foot plus overhead in Satellite with brutal onshore ENE winds in the 15 to 25 mph range.

Image 2 of 4, Wednesday December 7 2011 at 4rth St North

The size drops very slowly thru the week, but definitely expect head high every day 🙂 No sign of an offshore wind day yet. When the winds lay down, during high tides, that’ll be your most user-friendly paddle out.

Chest high right, but hanging close to the top. Image 3 of 4.

The photos are from the Big ENE swell from Wednesday December 7 2011 behind Mike’s condo at 4rth street North. We had waist to head high waves at 4rth Street North with SW winds, so it was glassy, but by late morning the winds kicked up to 12 -15 mpht SSW-SW and the glassy walls started to crumble a little. I had a great hour session with 5 or 6 long rides to shore, but when I tried to do a 2nd sesh with photos, my injuries kinda caught up with me, and I spent more time doing triple flips as opposed to working the walls. Oh well, still a great day 🙂

SUNDAY 4 :15 PM UPDATE! The 120 buoy jumped from 5 feet at 5 seconds from 1 AM this morning to 8.5 feet at 8 seconds at 2:00 PM this afternoon. Not that this is a surprise or anything, but I bet we have some overhead waves right here on Johnson by 9 AM Monday (since most of this swell is from direct East, we could have a lot of overhead waves Monday 🙂 And, with 15 plus ENE winds but at 9 AM dead high tide, it could be big and fun! Or, if you’re up for a 30 minute paddle out, head down to Satellite Beach for some 4 to 6 foot overhead chop chop to paddle out to 😉 Here endeth the Sunday afternoon update for Monday. Below is the long range thing I shared briefly from last night 🙂

We still had some waist high waves at Johnson Avenue, even some chest high sets rolled through for Chad out there. It was a little cleaner before noon, but it looked fun even from 2:00 to 2:40. Chad must have got 10 or 12 waves in the 35 minutes I was on the boardwalk, lefts and rights. I believe he frustrated the 5 newbies with foam boards in the water next to him, cause they got out of the water after his 4th or 5th ride in a row 🙂

Image 2 of 6 sequence, Chad on the best size wave I saw, NE windswell at Johnson Avenue on December 10 2011 around 2 PM.

Incoming surf…………..We have a huge low pressure at sea rolling in with a big ole windswell, bring waves for at least a week so it appears. Looks like some overhead days starting by Monday and continuing overhead through Friday. The overhead may be down South, but

There was definitely enough size to work the wall, as Chad gets a re-entry. Image 3 of 6 DSC05127

we’ll at least have some 3 to 6 foot faces hitting the Cape, with mostly onshore winds for 5 to 7 days straight.

We got waves and more waves 🙂

When it starts to show very clean light onshores and a chance of offshore winds, we’ll let ya know.

Image 4 of 5 shots. Chad caught over 10 waves while I was there, and these 2 held up the longest.

Have a great weekend!
