pretty slow late morning on the draining tide. Met
@tedshred5 at local reef as it looked the best of options around. Got a couple rights in the first 20 that lined up a bit for a couple fs wraps. Plasmic w/ SOC twins did well. Probably could've gone in after that because I didn't get anything better. Pretty long lulls, a few more quick ones that fizzled out after the drop, and missed a lot that looked like they might stand up... but just rolled under. Crowd got worse as the waves got less consistent. Got a couple more inner insiders and called it a day.
Got to try his 5'8 Arakawa firecat (slot channel quad) and it's crazy how well the foam is hidden on that along the stringer with thin rails. Didn't get a nice long wall to to really test it, but could feel nice squirts of speed even from the take off. Nice boar and quality craftsmanship.
Pretty nice conditions and I was just warm enough in 2mil full as long as I was not sitting too long. It is nice to be able to wear a thinner suit.
