Big Wednesday

It always seems to be a Wednesday, doesn't it? Huge west swells pounded Rincon over the past couple days, providing the best waves I've seen in a very, very long time. Here are a few highlight photos (click for larger version in new window):

Big Rincon.

The largest waves were starting to feather and break at the outer-reef bombora.

Viewed from the rivermouth, a large set wraps into the cove.

This was the most relaxed surfer I saw all day.

Double overhead in the cove.

Five seconds later, the guy popped out of the barrel!! Just sickening...

Horn of plenty.

Just for fun, this photo is flipped. For you goofyfooters, this is what the Rincon Indicator would look like if it were a left!

Interesting peaks happening between the indicator and rivermouth.

An unidentified surfer prepares to attempt a Reverse Patrice Lumumba.

Shorebreak in the cove at low tide... Crunch!!
