Finally mamged to get out and do some boarding after a drought of nearly a
month!
Hells mouth was a blown out mess as always! (what a surprise) so we slipped
aroung the coast to Porth Oer.
We got there just as High tide peaked and it was turning, the waves didn't
look much, but I had confidence it would build again was the tide started
to go out.
They did build but the waves wern't great...I couldn't put my finger on..
maybe it was the left overs from a swell... I don't know!
Best wave of the day... when I nearlly collided with the Massive rock that
emerges when the tide drops! I was battling with a surfer on a left
breaking Wave who had dropped in on me...! I saw the bloody great rock
coming towards me at a great speed... There was no way I was going to get
past it as the surfer was in the way.. so I carved back on myself heading
towards the break of the wave hammered a right turn and managed to get
around the opposite side of the rock as the surfer oblivious to me carried
on!
Let that be a lesson! Dropping in on people is Dangerous!
It scared the living crap out of me but it certainly gets your juices
flowing!
