Everyone is doing the happy dance! Surf is on the way!

The models have been calling for it, it’s showing up on the live buoy data, satellite imagery shows the wave generating coldfront in prime position, and it’s all coming together nicely! We should see the new swell show up tomorrow. Expect head high to overhead surf with decent conditions and no wind. There might be some wobble in it at first since the period isn’t too terribly long, but that doesn’t mean it won’t be good. The wind is still forecast to remain light through the weekend. The big swell for the weekend is no longer happening. This swell event will most likely go like this:

Wednesday – Swell shows up in the head high range with sets 2-3ft overhead.
Thursday – Swell still solid with head high to 2ft overhead surf.
Friday – Fading chest to head high surf.
Saturday – Waist to chest.
Sunday – Knee to Waist.

Of course, different spots will see different conditions, but for the most part the wind will be favorable for just about everywhere. Find a nice quiet beach and surf your brains out. Some spots may see bigger/smaller size but there should be plenty of surf to have fun.

Wax em up fellas! Short round of swell for Rincon.

In the middle of our super hot flat summer we now have a couple of days to look forward to for surf. We should have some swell in the water through Monday so get to it! The wave models have consistently putting a medium period swell from the NNE here in Rincon. It should be fun for everyone, beginners, shortboarders (at the right spot and tide), longboarders, etc… I hope everyone was safe during Erika and have some fun out there this weekend! Tomorrow is supposed to have the most size and the winds won’t be too bad. The north side of the island should be head high. Here in Rincon we’ll probably stay around chest high.
