I know Bob Brinker has spoken fondly of surfing so I hope he is watching the Mavericks competition LIVE today from this URL.
The waves are very smooth and the weather is great here today. I have windsurfed in the winter just around the point from Mavericks, in the protected cove on big, high wind days. When a wave breaks, it sounds like a bomb is going off.
Today, the waves have been "rather small" for Mavericks with the big ones 25 to 30 feet which the riders have been able to catch by paddling. Really big waves need a tow. The riders are letting many ride-able waves go by hoping for a monster wave since only the two best rides of the heat count and the big scores come on big waves.
After today, I guess BB will have to recirculate his 1380 buy signal...as permabear would say
