More importantly at what size do you loose the glide of a mid? 6-4? Asking for a friend. Haven't made the long drive this past week but cleaned the fungun, hp mid, fun board or whatever ya want to call it.

I had super high expectations for yesterdays 1-2ft long period swell, so I tortured myself getting prepared for an epic day.
It turned out to be just an OK day. Super inconsistent with strong long-shore currents topped off with just enough S wind to mess things up. Still managed to get a few waves without a single surfer in sight.

It’s been really small albeit clean as the winds have laid down as they do in September. Posted up for annual family SBSP Labor Day camp out. A small inconsistent and decayed 1 at 15 southern hemi pulse combined with light winds made for some good conditions for the gromita which got me salted 3 days in a row. She checked off a new spot on the way down along a punchy stretch of beach and just the 2 of us surfed a dumpy little left that was waist high for her. Otherwise we surfed SB and she was able to get out the back everyday putting together some good rights and stuck a couple critical drops on her 6-4. Even Dad found a few running thigh high rights on the twinny fish. Seems like forever since I’ve dropped into a head high wall pumped down the line and made a few turns, but I must admit it’s pretty rad surfing with your kiddo once they get past the white water phase and actually start catching some green waves.
