Tuesday surf report: Better shape

April 7th, 2009, 7:01 am · Post a Comment · posted by Jeff Malanca, contributing writer

Good Tuesday morning surf addicts.  Well it’s looking a little more shapely today, but the only bummer we’re dealing with a light west northwest wind which is putting some bump on it at many spots.

We’ve got a mix of continued fading south southeast swell and a little west northwest energy in the water.  That recipe is offering us some fast crumbly sectiony lines with a few good steep corners to pick off.

Most OC beaches are running about waist to chest high with the top spots pulling shoulder to head high waves with a few plus sets.

At 8:32 this morning the tide climbs up to a 5 foot high which will have some spots a bit swamped mid morning.  The tide then drains out to a negative 0.1 low at 2:39 this afternoon.

If you’re gonna get wet, break out no more than a 4/3 fullsuit with the water temp at most breaks averaging between 57 and 59 degrees.

Have fun!!
