AK's Sure Shot Surf Report

Swell Direction: 270 – 280, up to 15+ ft (Top spots in SoCal)
Swell Interval: 16 sec.

Weather: Wind, Rain and cold air mass expected Friday night through Saturday.
Second Swell: 290, DOH (Top spots in SoCal)
Peak Day: Wed, slight chance of rain expected.

Well it looks as if we have another swell building in for the weekend. Weather is on board for this swell looking like rain is likely for Friday night through Saturday. Weather forecasters are saying possibly 3/4″ to 1.5″ could fall. This combined with a cold air mass may cause snow levels to dip to as low as 4,000 ft. Sunday looks like it’ll clear up. The swell should max out predawn Sunday but there will be plenty of size throughout Sunday. Conditions will be questionable from the rains on Saturday. You’ll have to keep your eyes on it. This swell should pack a good punch. Be careful, the large size, short interval and stormy conditions could prove hazardous. Surf at spots to your level.

The next swell is expected to arrive on Wed. There is a slight chance of rain forcasted for Tuesday night into Wednesday. This swell will be coming from a more northerly direction of 290 degrees. Estimated size at this point is top spots seeing Double Over Head (DOH). We’ll have to see how this pans out over the next few days.

The Todos Santos Big Wave Event has been given the green light for this Sunday. Event organizer Gary Linden has checked the maps and after consulting with the Surfers Representative Greg Long all systems are go. Matuse Family Member, Derek Dunfee, has been invited into the contest. You can be sure jet ski engines are being tuned, big boards are being waxed and Matuse wetsuits are being packed for the trip out to the infamous island. We expect big things from Derek as he prepares himself to make a mark at this year’s Todos Santos Big Wave Event. Good luck Derek! Check out more details by visiting http://www.todossantosevent.com/.
