Is This Your Favorite Spot to Ride?
No, it isn't my favorite spot either, and I DO NOT want my favorite spots to ever become like this. No, my favorite spot doesn't have to be world class, but if I can find it and ride it without the hordes then it is a DAMN GOOD SPOT. Let's keep it that way! That is why even if my favorite spot has been pictured in the mags, listed in a surf guide, mentioned on the Internet, if it is still under the radar... keep it that way!

It Was A Good Trip
Many fine wave riding times at Domes, PdP, Little Teapoo and TDLR. Can't wait until my next trip.

PR NW Forecast of 1/22/09 Afternoon
Caught some kick-ass surf in the 3-7' range this morning. It was so glassy until the winds starting blowing around 11am. The reef was very, very clear. Not many fish sighted however.

PR NW Forecast of 1/15/09 PM
Gotta wait a few more days but it looks like the swells will finally be switching from the ENE to something with more of a NW orientation which means real swell on my turf. My reefs breaks and winds handle the W to NNE swells better given the same swell size on the ENE and prevailing easterlies. Still no o/h surf in the forecast... we need a big ass storm up in the States! Meanwhile, tomorrow is a good day for some snorkeling.

Looks like some opening day swell, a few small days and then a return of some fun swell towards the end of the week. All good!

PR NW Forecast as of 01/08/09 (am)
A pulse swell is forecast to provide one good full starter day before turning into a weak trade winds swell out of the NE. At least Sunday will give area riders some surf after an extremely flat few days. I know the two spots for me to dial-in on on Monday with some relative privacy. After that it looks like I will be ranging further afield to a couple of lesser known spots to the East.
