I just added a few photo galleries of images that were sent to me over the past month. There are two new Ocean sessions represented and a few shots from a sick butter session out at Madeket. From the home page you can now link to a gallery that shows recently uploaded photos which is convenient if you want to just check what is new.
The photos in the gallery “Madequecham on West” are from the sickest day from the past month. It was just a perfect ocean day. Solid 7, dead west and shoulder high, clean surf. Three of us hit it mid day and it was really good. In general May hasn’t been nearly as good as April. April was sick. But we did get a solid week of 4 ocean sessions in a row. Then there were two really good days at Pocomo that weekend that I missed. So there has been some good kiting but it was compressed into one week.
I think the third day that week was the sickest. Kind of light at Madequecham but overhead surf. We were on 12s and it was a bit sketchy because you could easily get yourself into a situation that you wouldn’t easily be able to get out of without a beating. I escaped with only two moderate spankings and a few decent turns. Mostly it was just ride it out down the face. Super fun.
Also, the Weather Page is cleaned up a bit and I added some tide info on the left hand column.
