9.1.12 - Cassidy St. Oceanside

Paddled out at 6:30am, with Chris M. and Joel S.. Tide was pushing to a 5.3' high at 10:23am. Conditions were clean, with little to no winds. Oceanside Buoy was reporting Significant Wave Height of 4.9' from 194° at 18s. Surf was pretty clean. Mostly lefts with some rights. Strong northbound current. It was pretty classic summertime south swell, beachbreak condititions. Steep take-offs, people were getting some nice barrels. A little inconsistent, but still quite fun. Waves were head high to slightly overhead. Water was very comfortable in my spring suit. Board ridden: 5'8" Xanadu Pig 2.
