Overhead chunky monkey close-outs marked a sunset surf session at La Lancha. The waves were high and heavy, heaving masses. A few were nice rides, but most were either close-outs or slouching phantom waves that mushed out just as I was ready to take off. I still love La Lancha though and to avoid the rush-hour traffic jam at Burros, La Lancha’s long walk through the jungle makes it a bit rougher of a diamond. Four of us in the water, as opposed to the eight of us in the water at Burros this morning. Did I just say that I was at Burros this morning? Well, yes I did.
Andrew, Christian and I got up again, for another sunrise session. There’s a nice size swell coming through right now. a little inconsistant and prone to half-hour waits, but a nice overhead wave packed set, when it decides to grace us with it’s presence.
Back to the story, so this morning, 7:30 and eight people in the water. Burros has officially jumped the shark. If it weren’t for the re-instatement of my drive-up-to-the-break status at Burros, I’d have to make La Lancha my regular spot.
Anyways, it was a good day with two could-have-been-better sessions, surfing is like pizza, even when it’s not so good, it’s still pretty good. and with overhead sets coming through, I can’t complain. Tomorrow we leave for the weekend to Guadalajara to visit Marcia’s family and to stock-up on the much needed things in life like Funicula’s Pizza and Levi Jeans. ahh, the good life.
This is the first time I’ll have brought the new camera, so I’m looking forward to some new wicked shots. can’t wait.
