So I heard the Nelscott Contest was on today up here in Oregon. The swell report didn’t sound big enough for a “Big Wave” event but what do I know? Any reports?? LCC?? Any of the tow ins out there today. Great weather for it. I think I got a little sun-burned working outside.
watched it with my wife for an hour mid-morning before we got bored and went off to due funner things. Really inconsistent, 30’ faces on one set while we watched, couple of good rides, could tell the wind line was going to move in and change things…
during that 11’ at 24 swell a week ago, watched the most perfect big waves I have ever seen pour through the Reef. Honolulu Bay shape with 40’+ faces. Oil glass, eerily calm between sets, not a drop of water out of place when they came. Couple of tow-in surfers getting super deep and long massive tube rides…lived 5 mins from Mav’s for decades, have watched a lot of big surf, most flawless big wave shape I’d ever seen…
