Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." - Albert Einstein



Somewhat settled with surf potential on the far edge of marginal.  Clear skies, no wind and sunshine lure while morning tide peaks and sweeps the ramp clean of all terrestrial bodies.  Detritus and battered hopes are all that are left in the wake.  The ocean gives no quarters today yet may take some prisoners.  Find your inner crystal and confirm all objectives.  A small conglomeration suits and boots then attempts entry with quasi-formed intentions.  I wonder if an exit strategy was part of the morning meeting? 
  
                                                                                                                                                                    
CHANNEL:  Deep bombora faces give cause for pause as high tide energy seeks to find an area upon which to unload its cargo.  Much warbled segments will need to be navigated in search of this landing zone.  A general feeling of too much water has most in the look - see mode and few tackling this project.  Jump off the high turnbuckle and suplex the day.  At the very least you will have expended maximum energy on a worthy pursuit.


PATCH:  Slappy hour this morning as no waves moving in one general direction.  A few clean faces give rise to deeper glances but those last steps are a doozy to overcome.  Tide sucks and hucks over the rest of the day so might be worth observation at an undetermined later date in the future.

Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"Consistency is the enemy of enterprise, just as symmetry is the enemy of art." - George Bernard Shaw


Sweet mother of Ted Nugent, side saddle, on a white horse riding through space, its going to be a bit bumpy today. All kinds of hilarious hold downs and hypocritical board choices should and shall be experienced today. Its looking like surf for all the strange creatures out there. The current number of organisms in the water is 3'056'374. Counting no humans present. It's not white capping but the sheep may be out to pasture soon. Surf is up and caution is advised. Slamming on the sea wall with a frothy morning high tide today. 
                                                                                                                                                                    
CHANNEL:  Sections if you look hard, but no one shooting this curl or riding this wave. Energy and push if you enjoy to be smacked around a little but its surely a day for tempered optimism. Current is currently moving in EVERY direction. If you throw the young one in, he might not learn to swim.


PATCH:  Great pumpkin in the sky! Its a ghoulish and ghastly time. No ghouls trying to get schooled yet, and with the surf out there not many will embark or survive. Its a setting for a solo paddle battle with Poseidon. I wouldn't wait for the wind.

Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"Out of the most secure things, the most secure is to doubt." - Simon Bolivar


Oh, how the sea does scream and sing this morning, as debris collects on boat ramps and raging waters seek purchase all the way into lonely avenues. Tumultuous at best, foolhardy at worst, it goes virtually without stating that there are no sliders upon heaving seas at present. The promise of storm and wind lay upon the horizon like a threat. Something wicked this way comes, indeed.
                                                                                                                                                                    
CHANNEL:  Flights of fancy meets Sid and Nancy as an air of menace is the operational paradigm. Chaos reigns and promised rain looms over the groin pole as if already shrouded in darkness. The boatman's call is ignored, and rightly so, as to seek solace in this chaos will bring only tears.


PATCH: While the global market crashes
            As death fill the streets
            We're garden-variety oblivious
            You grab my hand
            And say
            In an I-told-you-so voice
            It's just like we expected.

Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"Remember when life's path is steep to keep your mind even." - Horace


A chilly morning hits the sea shore with wind and rain. Low air temperature of 50F is making for a bitter walk out. As of now parking is a plenty and there remains no crowd. Stormy weather keeping the water moving in every direction with little positivity to be found. Know your limits, exceed your limits.
                                                                                                                                                                    
CHANNEL:  No real shape found here as the water levels begin to drop and the storm works its way through the channel with some power.   


PATCH:  Hardly a chance here to find a decent ride due to stormy slush. Better luck another day.

Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"So remember, it's better to burn out than fade away." - Kurt Cobain


A thawing trend with temps coming in positively balmy at 42F.  Skies remain overcast and dry though low pressure winds blow seeds of change on the horizon.  NW swells eases back but still shows promising energy.  A micro-tic from the S lends itself to the fray and adds a conservative dose of fortune to the merry mix.  Holiday revelers remain en masse with evening activities taking priority over watery pursuits.  A small battery of sliders have their territory marked and are managing quite nicely in the early hours.  

                                                                                                                                                                    
CHANNEL:  Settled and subdued with more shape and less body.  Nominal helpings of left leering peaks go un-ridden as the playing field remains absent of heros.  A hopeful right has emerged as a contender just out front and has proner proclivities in mind.  Justifiably empty if superior rides are your aim though the solitude beckons to those on the correct frequency.        
 

PATCH:  Languid liquid with emerging shapes draw log jammers from all corners.  Fine lines are in the offering with heights coming in at a heady thigh high.  Rights are revealing themselves in the dwindling tide and may hold form as water levels remain above zero.  Lightly textured as E winds form a crossbreed with Kentucky bluegrass.  A welcome site to visualize Patch waves and the current crew is attacking with relish.

Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"Don't count the days.  Make the days count." - Muhammad Ali


Denizens of the deep and those that never sleep ringing in the New Year with resolute determination.  All free space occupied by mobile locals with alternative living quarters spilling over into the realm of sensibility.  Lowlands show a heavy freeze with crackling temps into the low 20s.  Coastal reality has clear skies and a rising sun with conflicted wind gusts that have temps on the rise and currently 38F.  Textured tops as NE puffs swirl sand and spray though not keeping the devoted away from their rituals.  Take a centered deep breath.  Hold.  Release.  Now dive into the ocean and allow the year to begin. 

                                                                                                                                                                    
CHANNEL:  Heavy with hope as a steeper NW swell begins to build.  Tidal tendencies have water levels a bit on the full side.  Clear and crisp with welcoming water temps that exceed the air level degrees significantly.  Less than perfect and finding better results in the deeper Channel region.  Bumps breaching both right and left with shorter rides than desired but slides nonetheless.  Jump in and wash it all off.  Begin anew as the calendar page has turned for the better.                                 
 

PATCH:  A cautious crowd of the misguided and sanctioned mingle as holiday revelers mix with weekday regulars.  Worlds collide as it all comes together on this Day 1 of 2016.  A veritable plethora of minimalistic waves seems to be working in the general direction of the upper thigh.  There's a force in the universe that makes things happen. And all you have to do is get in touch with it, stop thinking, let things happen, and be the ball.

Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"The mind ought sometimes to be diverted that it may return to better thinking." - Phaedrus


Bone dry and blatantly cold as we end the current calendar year.  Clear skies full of colors and sun helps to only warm spirits at temps plummet to 34F.  A calm reflective aura inhabits the hamlet and current activity levels remain minor.  A lingering NW swell seeks to find purchase upon the bars as tidal factors and wind ratios do not inhibit such.  The options remain endless though the contributions to the cause seem lackluster in considered opinion.     

                                                                                                                                                                    
CHANNEL:  A searching trio with determined goals seeks to end the year upon a high note.  With nearly tranquil waters upon which to ply one's efforts a lower level breaker is all that greets.  Reflective in the early light and allowing for passing time between paddling efforts to think back upon the past 364 days.                                 
 

PATCH:  I came to call your dare
And look you up on all you 
Claim to want to share
Claim to want to share
Yet you offer less than enough for one

Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"The biggest problem with every art is by the use of appearance to create a loftier reality." - Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe


Winter has clearly settled in for the morning as temps hover around the icicle line.  A zen-like stillness hangs over the village like the cloud cover. A determined minimalism dominates both parking areas and the breakers, and it seems the young Americans that have been such a factor in recent days have wisely chosen to sleep in.  Hot tea and hot towels may be the perfect prescription today, as a slider's menu offerings may be meager.                                                                  
                                                                                                                      

CHANNEL:  The unusual sight of exposed sand and an area resembling an actual beach greets one's gaze at low tide. A single sentinel seeks solace amongst calm waters. A quiet place to reflect upon the year's passing, yes, but hardly shapes of quality.                                
 

PATCH: The usual faces going through SUP paces as fair-to-midland shapes are all that's revealed  at this early hour. Look towards the future and focus on spinal alignment as the day ahead will require the hunter's eye and the sniper's  patience.

Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"We spend our time searching for security and hate it when we get it." - John Steinbeck


Icy dew and multiple work crews line the path to paradise, as current temps lie south of the freezing mark. This clearly matters little, as a veritable seven nation army has already occupied any and all parking. The logic behind this invasion is questionable, at best, as current conditions and line-up totals have no relation to the bedlam taking place upon icy blacktop. It  appears that a prototypical BO day is upon us, but that the masses feel as though they've been promised  more.                                                                   
                                                                                                                        


CHANNEL:  Though hope hangs high in a morning sky, the shadows of  many a paddle tell  oanother realityWind swell making noise does not a symphony make. Though potential lies in state, acknowledge what is.                                 
 

PATCH: As is so often the case, a cavalcade of logs already calls the Patch home, as some rides of merit are had. The shadows cast indicate a classic day of single-fin beasts and breezes from the northeast. As a moth to flame, be prepared to be aware of your surroundings.

Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"Radical simply means 'grasping at the root' " - Angela Davis


Though all routes to the hamlet this morning are a heady mix of dense fog and black ice, the skies are currently remarkably clear. Harbor no illusions about the glowing orb providing warmth or illumination, as neither is found at present. The usual suspects don neoprene in ample doses and plod towards calm seas. The possibilities are endless, yet limited, as often located within, so you can count everyone out.                                                                                                                         


CHANNEL:  A no wake zone is in effect in the early hours, as low water signals are looking to mingle, or at least make languid conversation with desolation angels.                                    
 

PATCH: Sluggish, like a wet sponge.  Though entering the fray comes with remarkable ease, one's desire and intent to  do so raises questions. Gather your reserves and a quiet patience as it will behoove all sliders to wait until the sun raises higher overhead, and low-tide vectors have passed.

Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves." - John Muir


Full moon tidings as brilliant twilight blends into the new day.  Post white Christmas milieu with frost covered surfaces as far as the eye can see.  Rise and shine and shake off the holiday hangover and food coma with a treat for the body and soul. Still a few unwrapped gifts left to be discovered.  Dispense with platitudes and carve out some prime time to experience the day to its full extent.  Remedial NW swell still hanging on and new winds puff gently from the offshore directives.  Sun kissed and chilled out at 32F makes for a great start to a day full of promise.    


CHANNEL:  Shifted and lifted with rollers of the leftover variety merging into the deeper waters of the Channel and finding purchase along the Seadrift bars as well.  Wisps of luminous spray off the backs of wanton walls of water as breakers bump along at less than waist high capacity.  Fiery sun lighting the path which is iced over and torture on toes.  A hale and hearty crew is upon it with cares abandoned and stoke in their eyes.   


PATCH: Lesser in quality and surfer quantity as well though offering up tastes that should still be sampled.  A paddle wielding duo has set forth with their eyes on the outside prize.  A mounting tide gives rise to extra propulsive powers and currently still allows for easy entry while keeping rocks at bay.  A fine option to inaugurate your day and sure to present peaks predicted in the thigh high range.

Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"Find hope in the darkest of days, and focus in the brightest. Do not judge the universe. - Dalai Lama


Damp and dreary as we gaze to the north with eyes slightly bleary.  A partitioned sky marked marked with wine and indigo gives the faithful moments of redemption amongst an overcast and drenching backdrop.  A frenzied pattering of feet and furious application of wax signals game on for those guided more by circumstance and determination than by reasoned thought process.  As solid NW swells assimilate and organize the tides and zephyrs also build in an effort to thwart and confound.  Let's all join hands and sing a round of Kumbayah.


CHANNEL:  The recently reunited collegiate youth are making a purposeful assault on ocean entry.  Slightly smoothed seas show promise though are a far cry from a considered groomed.  A palpable excitement exists as breakers yawn wide swaths of aquatic energy with carnage being the most observed results of their journey.  A keen eye can spot the pearl but getting it in one's grasp is a slippery situation as best.

Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"People sleep peaceably in their beds only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf." - George Orwell


A beaming sunshine cuts through a wistful mist as if the rays were a guiding light, or siren's call. Certainly this call is being answered by the youth contingent as freedom from educational shackles equals no parking at present. Though a flurry of activity and various states of undress and redress are observed, one must wonder at the judgement and assessment capabilities of the young sliders this morn, as access to the breakers is less than ideal, with walls of whitewater dancing on blacktop.



CHANNEL:  A determined trio have not allowed reality or logic to interfere with the possibilities  and are making a determined charge upon the heaving seas. Though largely without form, these walls of madness churn towards buried sand and rock, mostly without slides being enjoyed. A carnival barker's dream as yelling and cajoling offers no prizes and an exit through the gift shop.


PATCH: High tide vectors and synapse connectors find mostly the sloshing of carbon paddles. A variety of watercraft are making themselves at home as outside shapes shake off the dense water to create  shapes being ridden, if not enjoyed.  Volume, volume, everything must go.

SHOP CLOSED DUE TO INCLEMENT WEATHER

Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"Climate is what we expect, weather is what we get.." - Mark Twain


Wind whipped and double dipped as we stare into the abyss.  Foolishness will find a way but we will not be party to any of it today.



CHANNEL: Undocumented chaos.


PATCH: Maximum mayhem.

Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"War does not determine who is right- only who is left." - Bertrand Russell


Damp realities mix with downed trees and flooded knees at this early hour. Signal flares and near scares en route, so be mindful. The seas do not paint a welcoming portrait as the storms have churned and burned most hope for slides. Though filigree and shadow is observed, access will require fortitude and foolishness, which explains seas barren of sliders of any kind at present.



CHANNEL: A rare shape plays a hand that suggests reason for hope, but reveals it's bluff all too quickly. Windswept and churning, with little  expectation of improvement. No movement, no lyrics, just silence.


PATCH: A jolting zone of chaotic ramblings and cosmic gambling. No shirt, no shoes, no dice.....

CLOSING EARLY TODAY: 2:30

Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"Knowledge will give you power, but character respect." - Bruce Lee


The morning greets us with rain as the day begins to break. Temperatures staying below 50F in the early hours of the day, currently 45F. No sign of sun as far as the eye can see. Bring your knit hats and your favorite sweater, no heat is being produced.


CHANNEL: Looking mushy and mixed up. NW swell working in some places more than others, Sea Drift looking like the place to be. Knee to waist high and taking some shape.


PATCH: Knee high with periods of wondering. Resounding reverberations for no one to hear.

Inspirational Quote Of The Day:
"Make the best use of what is in your power, and take the rest as it happens." - Epictetus 


Got all our polarities reconfigured and running clean.  Palpable positivity overwhelms as light slivers through current clouds as an energy beam sent from a greater powerSpirits lift as do hopes for a day mingled with ocean slides.  Another bout of evening rain as precursor to building NW swell and diminished winds.  Light textures to be revealed and accommodated as surfers salvage the treasures in the early light and dropping tide.  

 

CHANNEL: Preliminary findings yield a data field of wildly merged results.  Though not nearly of legend status there does exist breakers directed by air and sea forces.  Blinding golden light encompasses the field of vision and plays tricks upon the mind.  Know your space in the universe and you will easily find your place in the lineup.


PATCH: Tokens dispensed and turnstiles wheel to allow one to pass into uncharted realms.  What wasn't now is as microwaved petite pulses can be mined for stoke and stand-up rides.  Elusive and alluring though present at the same time.  Unlock the rebus to receive the joy being bestowed.
