Dawn Patrol - 5/31/2021

Pulled a dawn patrol at Firsts this morning.  Marlon brought he longboard, I brought the wide 4'10", and the short Go Foil with the NL160.


Seconds had more waves breaking, but there was also a SUP crowd on it.  Marlon was picking off some good ones, but it didn't seem like the rides were long. 

 
I stayed at First the whole time.  The bigger waves were coming in, but the wait was pretty long - maybe 15 to 20 minutes.  I caught some awesome waves - with a running left wall with rides touching 500'.  My longest was almost 800'


The speed off the Garmin is pretty suspect (64 mph...) - though the 22 mph on the long runs are probably correct.  I was able to pump back out on a couple - and got a 2 for 1 - its been a while (not sure why...???).  Prayot was out on his Lift HA170 and Marvin was using his HA120.  On Marvin's last wave he was able to take off on the inside of Seconds, pump across the channel and pick up another wave at Firsts!
