10.27.12 - Blacks

Paddled out at 6:30am, solo. Tide was Pushing fast to a 6.2' high at 8:14am. Conditions were glassy, with off shore winds. Torrey Pines Outer Buoy was reporting Significant Wave Height of 3.5' at 9s combo NNW and SSW. Surf was pretty clean. The winds were strong offshore at first so it was hard to paddle into the rights. There was a NSSA contest starting at 7:00 at middles, so I drifted down a little south to be out of the contest area. In general the waves were fun, but soft due to the high tide. Waves were chest high with occassional plus. Water was really nice in my short sleeve full suit. Board ridden: 5'10" KG Twinzer fish.
