1.22.13 - Suck Outs (Cardiff Reef)

Paddled out at 6:15 am, with Joel S. Tide was coming of off a 5.2' high at 5:51am. Conditions were clean, with slight offshore winds. Torrey Pines Outer Buoy was reporting Significant Wave Height of 2.1' from 275° at 18s. Conditions were really clean, but somewhat inconsistant though. Joel and I were the first two guys out, and there were about 10 guys out when we came in about an hour later. Today was the day that I really "christened" my new board. My first and last wave were really long right hand walls where I took off at suck outs, and made my way well past south peak, with some really fun turns. Waves were 3-5'. Water was around 56°, felt okay in my 4/3 with booties and hood. Board ridden: 5'11" Xanadu Pig 2.
