    It was way over DOH at RR after the tide dropped in the pm. Scary drops on the way outside. Some debris in the water from washed out staircases and piers.

    How often does it get like that in Florida? My buddy in Cocoa claims it happens often enough, especially in the winter. That 3 month flat spell in the summer seems manageable if that is the case (depending on where in Florida of course).

    Pesky onshores, but it looks like it cleans up a lot down there.

    I'd post a pic of the break we were at today but would rather we are the only 3 out next time as well. The way it is set up looks like the PNW. Wave did too today.

    FLY A BANNER FOR ANY TYPE OF BARRELL ANYWHERE

    Had a forecast of shoulder to head and I think the biggest wave I saw was knee high... It was depressing

    I'm 3 hours south of Cocoa, and it goes off every now and then. Or not.

    These are from yesterday. The first pic was the first glimpse I caught of the swell as I walked over the dune. Couldn't get home fast enough to change. It was much bigger than the photo appears and they would just peel for days. The last one was dead high tide but the lefts would still rifle. There were some good leftovers today too.

    I'm a big fan of shorebreak barrellz now. Just don't see them often.

    I think my favorite waves are of the shorebreak variety too. For the past few years it seems like we've gotten good high tide sandbars during the winter months and during the summer months we get a good outside bar. I'll take some chunky ole shorebreak every time if given the option. I just hope this swell didn't screw it up!!

    Cocoa Beach does not break very well with a N.E. swell like we are having right now because of the Cape blockage, but trust me, go just a few miles south of that on a N.E. swell and it gets good, really good. The whole area is so tide dependent though.

    Seems like the easiest and best place to find barrells. We ain't got no reef here. Easy paddle outs as well at the right spots. On days it's manageable, it makes for a lower-maintenance and fun sesh of high reps. Greater risk makes for greater reward. I dug it today for sure.

    Never cleaned up great down south today, was manageable by dark but not looking very rewarding. Tomorrow dawn patrol looks promising, solid head high and bowly like a skate park. But cold, Idk if I'll do it lol.

    It was easy peezy double over head today. There were 10-12 footers hitting the outside bars on the sets and sometimes they were breaking. Getting out there would've been a heroic effort, probably bordering on insane. Sometimes it's hard to judge how big it is from the beach but when the outside bar isn't just feathering and mushing but actually occasionally pitching a lip, it's double over head.

    There were way over head bombs reforming on the inside but most of them were walling up and closing out the shoulder with the low tide right at dark. Just how it goes sometimes, the wind went offshore and groomed it up just in time for the tide to stack it all up and close it out again.
