    The Cove 121909

    Surfed the Cove last Saturday (12/19).  Super fun, really big, savage.  Fun, fast drops.  Made it down the line only a few times, the rest were close out bombs.  Surfed it on the incoming tide until it completely shut off.  Here’s a few pics courtesy of kikopkau.com Here’s a vid of the wave explosion.
