Dusk Patrol
Indicator showing. Squeezed 20 minutes in the water before total darkness. Skinned my knuckles on the reef rushing. Must remember, "slow is smooth, smooth is fast":

MLK
"If the thundercloud passes rain, so let it rain... rain down on him..."
Lots of rain here on MLK Day:
Today's holiday celebrates a legacy of service.
I did a lot of thinking last year about how to incorporate the spirit of service with the Breaks Selection experience. The result was the Community Service Discount we offer on custom shapes. I mention the offer again because I'd like to see more people take advantage of it.
We all have a human potential and what could be better than helping others realize theirs?
"and may your dreams be realized..."

Supernatural
Yestreday's after action review- Marinero and Khybro survey Norvo Land:
This was my best session in quite a while. In fact, I think I may have out G'd the G at his home break. I need to claim it since he's been setting the standard the rest of this swell.
A better view of what was out there:
21st century bass, early 90's ravey synth fauna and Richie-esque 80's world music percusion and chorus kind of capture the vibe of this off world session for me:

Starting to Show
There's a ton of babies that seem to be on the way these days. A Breaks Selection shout out to all the soon to be Mommies and Dadies (no, this is not a cryptic pregnancy announcement for team BS! Just well wishing).
By about 2 this afternoon the big swell everyone's been awaiting the last week was starting to make its presence known:

"And I will show you where the Iron Crosses grow..."
-Sergeant Steiner
Another military themed quote. This one captures the steely determination I witnessed from the crew as they navigated their way to an empty line up, chose their waves and dropped in on some bombs. Marinero and J were "leading from the front" and that resonated. "Lead, follow or get out of the way". I was happy to follow this morning.
Here's a post session sequence. Ryan, whom some of the BS regulars know from the water, pulling into the Hunt Bowl section of the wave. I hope these images don't trivialize some pretty spectacular surfing and in my opinion, a pretty heavy wave:
An epic morning. I wish I had shots of Marinero, J-man, Shane and Sean whom I sessioned with. They all put their nuts on the table and there was some great surfing going on. Inspired.

"Those Who Dare, Win"
Well, "those who dare consistently over time, win". But that's not so catchy.
George gets uber daring on this bomb:
Sean watches the impact from the channel:
Once the hull of the hollow carbon fiber vessel was breached, it filled with water and reportedly "felt like a sea anchor". Here it's pissing its contents back out:
A quick board swap and more waves were being ridden. A good reminder that "the more you shoot, the more you score".

"I'm in 'Diego Trick!!!"
No matter how hard we try, magic sessions like this morning's are ones it seems you just have to luck into. "'Diego" is a pretty corny term but today's insano go-out deserves some straight up party music to celebrate it.
J-man looking for an early start on the fun...
When I paddled in for the morning, the dropping tide had the outside looking good. Caught the boys having fun with this set:
Marinero, you in there?...
"Kapa-chow!" He was...
Ian with a nice "Hi-yah!"...
It was wave gluttony today... I think we all may have smoked ourselves before the swell even arrived lol...
