Beacons Beach, Encinitas California







Didn't get a ton of surfing in while I was out in Cali, and checked out Tourmaline on a pretty small day. Ended up surfing last Saturday off Beacon's Beach for the first time. The break was pretty good, but got steeper as the tide rose. Didn't catch anything too spectacular, but I was on a crappy rental. I wanted to get a long board but got talked into a 8' board with a longboard shape. My buddy tried a 9' board which I was surprised at how poorly it paddled. I'm looking at getting a Walden Magic Epoxy this summer for the smaller East Coast waves, still waiting to hear back from Walden on the best length for my height and weight. I'll let you know about it when I get it. For now enjoy these pics of the West Coast:
