PRNW Forecast & Rpt of Fri, 2015-0109noon

Some early forerunners showed up this morning so I finally got wet 5 days after arriving to PR! I did not get the early worm as the forecast had been for more micro waves before the swell fills in this morning, but some was better than none. Paddled the bonzer paipo out to PdP--will stick to the Checkered RPM for its tighter turning radius and maneuvering in little steep waves. Surf was 2-3 ft with only light wind when I paddled out. Good enough for an hour and a half before the winds and chop killed it. Feels so good. Only one other guy out.

Might bonzer paipo it at TdlR if that is working later this afternoon. Will see what the swell and winds bring. Looks like we might have swell into Monday morning without having to venture to the north coast.
