This past week of Swell has been Non-stop in Orange County. The Largest waves I have seen in my 28 years of existence occurred on this day. The morning high tides paired with a building swell led to some extremely heavy and dangerous shorebreak waves. Only a select few surfers were able to complete rides this day, and many didn't even make it out with a board in one piece. Yadin Nicole, Blair Conklin, and Tyler Stanaland had some stand out performances with several critical drops and completed barrel rides. Body Boarders were getting spit out of lefts and right on just about every peak that came in. All in all, this was one of the best days of barrel riding I have seen at this beach and hopefully it is the first of many to come in this El Niño fueled winter. Keep the kegs a coming!
