Oceanside and the SW

June 27, 2006 at 4:43 pm

Ross and I drove up to Oceanside on Saturday and Sunday to catch the latest SW swell.  It was definitely worth it.  Saturday we drove for about 2 hours stopping at all sorts of spots in San Diego, and nothing was breaking.  Seriously, we checked out Mission Beach, spots in between, Torrey Pines, Cardiff, D-Street, some other spots just north of that, everything.  Finally, Ponto started showing some swell so we just hopped on the Freeway and went to Oceanside Harbor.

Awesome.  The sets were totally head high.  Unfortunately I forgot my wetsuit and I was freezing so it wasn't as fun as it should have been.  But Sunday we came back (with my wetsuit) and I had more fun.  The waves were a little crossed up from the strong wind, but the swell was big enough to still make it fun. 

Man I want some surf like that again.  But I'm sick and I need to get better first.  This weekend didn't help that.
