Pistol River Shapes

Lots of SUP'n going on today.  Luke, Don, James, Mark and I on the SUPs and some surfers were also out and getting some nice waves as well.

Don paddled out and also caught some waves.  I guess I missed the big search for the missing person at the cape yesterday morning.  I remember first seeing the truck there about 2 weeks ago.  Currypilot.com has some more info.      

Why drive all the way to Baja when it can be so much like it here.  Water was amazingly clear as the bottom was so visible.  Sunny, warm, clean and easy SUP waves with very long rides.   Mark also paddled out today.  It looked like a nice seabreeze developed later making for some good SUP windsurfing  conditions.  

Don also made it out today and caught some nice rides as well. Here's a pic of the 9'6" board he rides.  

Amazing how it got here.  Its just visiting for a brief moment in time.   

Took a few pics before I went out.

Lots of ways to get waves.  Looked like they were having fun earlier today.    

The cape had a few good waves.  Greg, Ken and I sailed until 4.7 became too much cloth.
My new ST85 board felt nice. 

Unfortunately Luke broke his universal in that crazy rip and his 4.8 rig took off.  Hopefully it will wash in and be found soon.  We were really glad to see that he got back to his board after swimming a good while.  It was an even bigger relief when he finally made it back to shore.  Then there was the bomb scare drama.  Rock looked more inviting than the cape.                 

It would have been really nice if it was actually 4.7 on 4-7-10. Nice swell.
