Cadillac. Surf/wind checks at south jetty and the cape, then off to the rock. Biggest wind swell of our trip today (so far). There were some big close-out sets rolling through both above and below the rock. The locals were on it early on small-four-somethings. Many experienced and skilled sailors got washed today. Leo got a big cheer from the beach when he squeaked over a clearing set of mackers. Later John said it was like watching a Cadillac roll over some speed humps. Then the wind backed and one clearing set took out most on the water. Our crew took the advice of those coming off the water and rigged slightly bigger (4.5/92 for me). My first two tries out were meet with rejections (bad timing) but I came out positive on the day at three for five. Jens was charging again today ' carrying speed and challenging outbound runs below the rock. Leo summed up the session, 'We all survived the day! Surprisingly there was no gear carnage! There was a lot of lunar energy at the rock today!' Yes there was! Thai food truck for dinner after the south jetty surf check. Four vehicles at the new campsite at the campo.
