Surfed Thursday and had a good time...couldn't get out yesterday so thought this morning would still be working. Checked the forecast before 6a...seemed swell still holding then checked the buoy...shorter period than forecasted...had that happen before and after an update period jumps up. Made a quick run over after doing a few things with some hope...ooff...my., pic below...skunked. No problem though...close to home... However, had group of friends plan a trip to CR late FEb./early March...no bigger than thigh (at best) the entire trip...real head shaker IMHO...buddy is planning to go back to same spot again this spring...he's hoping for a better experience.... Ever plan a trip and get totally skunked? How'd you pass the time?
Costa will work awesome in spring man last time I went got doh for week and then it dropped to 8. I've gotten skunked on 2 hour trips but nothing cross country or nothing. I'm going to head to indo for two months I don't think its possible to even get skunked. If your going somewhere you need to put in time to not get skunked ...more time equals less skunk. I wouldn't go to costa feb or early March id wait till the end unless the south swells started firing. Went to costa during summer got skunked one day so I mean it can happen if it does just get wasted and raise cane. Go try and get some wahines. Go try some new drugs get experimental with it. Maybe get into a sword fight. Most of all go do it don't sit around here and ask what to do ....get creative you know what to do don't be a noob.
Usually try to make the best of it- haven't been on a surf trip that I can remember where there was no waves.... Thank God! Except for the east coast trips... Usually try to find something else, like a fishing charter or snorkel or just relax on the beach. Or hike... It drive around the island, check out some of the sights. There seems to be tons of stuff now in CR- like zip lining. Or just take the longboard- so if it's waist hi or even knee you can still have fun!
