July 23, 2013—The last time I surfed three times in one day, I was 20 and freshly relocated to a garage on the Westside of Santa Cruz. Shucking oysters at a now-defunct fish grotto on the wharf provided plenty of time for such a schedule. Five years later, the sporadic work of a freelance writer affords equal opportunity for ocean time while avoiding the distinct fragrance of Eau de Fish and Chips. When Surfline called for four days of solid south swell for Central California, I gutted the schedule for an upcoming weekend in the waves.
Surfers across Central California—and Santa Cruz surfers definitely fit into this category—suffer from “obligation dysfunction” at the hint of favorable surf forecast. As 60-knot winds off the southern coast of New Zealand whip the sea into a violent frenzy, oceangoing enthusiasts start to scheme, canceling business meetings, fabricating food poisoning scenarios and contriving escapes from upcoming family functions. Seven days later the Southern Hemisphere swell arrives in California, groomed and organized by 6,000 miles of open ocean travel. Donning four millimeters of neoprene and grabbing their most trusted chunks of fiberglass, surfers flock to the south-facing breaks of Santa Cruz County, which focus the swell energy.
Day 1: Go North, Young Man!
Thursday’s possibility of swell forerunners called for a trip up the coast in search of waves. I met up with three friends—Annick, Gregory and Dave—to search for July’s first helping of solid surf. Despite optimistic forecasts, the first days of the swell brought a little disappointment as northwest winds jumbled the surface conditions. Still, frolicking in the windy slop of Waddell Creek proved a great way to relax from work and transition into surf mode.
Day 2: Rocks and Roll
Saturday morning brought the full force of the south swell as 5-foot swell lines rolled through the kelp beds off West Cliff Drive. These conditions on the weekend days draw crowds upward of 60 surfers at popular breaks like Steamer Lane and Pleasure Point. Dave headed to Big Sur, fleeing the crowds, and left Annick, Gregory and me to search for a crowdless break. We found respite from the hordes in front of a rocky outcropping on the Westside of town. We spent nearly three hours hooting one another into unmakeable takeoffs as sections heaved toward the exposed rock shelf. An afternoon spent treating the reef like a trampoline proved more enjoyable than the chest-pounding, shit-throwing show at the Lane.
Day 3: Secret Spot Bonanza
Sunday brought a similar search for a deserted break. Annick, Gregory and I bobbed in the lineup of a “secret spot” off West Cliff. While the wave produces barrels with regularity throughout the summer, the break remains guarded by a constant swarm of straight-brimmed hats and knee-high tube socks perched along the walkway railing. Any show of intent to surf this heavily regulated location invites a chorus of verbal abuse. For the “un-chosen” to surf here, the fickle combination of tide, wind and swell must align with a deserted lineup and vacant parking lot. Cruising past on Sunday afternoon revealed an empty ocean and, most importantly, not a flat bill in sight. For the next two hours we traded heaving takeoffs over the boils, rewarded with the rare tube ride. For the second time in two days, the carnage of near un-makable waves made for a grin-filled day away from the crowds.
Day 4: Three Sessions A Day Keep The Work Blues Away
By Monday the crowds had dispersed as the weekend warriors retreated over the hill, swapping their O’Neill wetsuits for three-pieced alternatives. Fueled by two cups of coffee and a pile of frozen waffles, I pulled up at the Lane as the sun crested the Santa Cruz Mountains. The glow shimmered off the kelp-covered ocean, revealing glassy Southern Hemisphere-born lines rolling toward the rocky cliffs below the lighthouse. With only the self-, un- and nocturnally employed now in the lineup, the crowd of 10 shared waves until the tide came up and sapped the energy of the swell.
Following lunch, a cruise past the Westside secret spot revealed a lack of Toyota Tundras and tube socks. After sneaking down the cliff, I enjoyed a two-hour session of backwashy boils and reef poundings, with a pair of barrels to show it.
With four more hours of daylight remaining and just enough strength left in my progressively noodling arms, I decided a trip up the coast would cap the exceptional day of waves. A blind run to the beach at Four Mile revealed wedging south swell lines and only two people out. Laughing and sharing set waves with the pair drew me back to the takeoff zone after each wave until I could no longer resist the pull of a carne asada burrito. With a final glassy, wedging takeoff, I cut my way back to the beach, and several days’ worth of obligations neglected, to recover and bask in the satisfaction of a weekend well spent.
