that last one looks maybe kinda sorta skimmable on the far right

were those mostly from Sunday? 1 & 2 look like Saturday but i figured the storm probably hit in the afternoon, it was NUTS up here when I got back in town, never driven through rain like that before.

yeah, ZBR - shots 1 & 2 are from Saturday. it cleaned up a lot for Sunday morning, and i caught some of the best sponging in my life. those backwash waves (like in #10) were sick. i got launched trying to drop in on one of those on an 8ft face. nasty air drop to the bottom!

I went from 10-12:30 sunday morning. I meant to go from 9-12 but took a while getting out of the house. I wish I had. When I got there the skim was ALL TIME. Chest to head peeling on the beach, tons of stuff to work with, lefts, rights, wraps, lines... I mean the surf was great, so I was torn, but I decided skim that good was more valuable and I skimmed instead. Unfortunately it was only THAT good for like an hour, but it stayed pretty good till i left. I was at the pier btw.

guys NOBODY knows about Hayman. Shhhhhh


and if I'm not mistaken he's probably referring to where his hotel was, which i'm assuming is where all the pics except 1 & 2 (which are obv. Hayman) were taken... which is not near Hayman.

I surfed with him on Saturday, right in front of his hotel, I think he probably went out there on Sunday AM too. But again, that's just my guess.
