Seal Beach - Bills Contest
22/Apr/09 09:43
In the Beginning of March, Bill Bryan held an amateur contest at Seal Beach.
The contest was scheduled for somewhat closer to noon, but Taylor, Corey and myself believed otherwise and got there at sunrise, around 6:00 AM.
The lighting, though beautiful, was somewhat difficult but the waves got better and better.
This was a very short picture session do to my trembling knees from the cold and anxiety to go skim it myself.
But the waves were really beautiful. It was super glassy and slide slipping action got better and better as the tide started to sink.
I KNOW! NO BARRELS RIGHT?
well, the truth is, the really early morning session was kind of brutal, and the peak of the high tide didn’t make it easy, but there were barrels, only problem is, i was skimming at that point, before the beach got too crowded of contestants (like 5 skimmers). It really did get easy for barreling later, WAY OUTSIDE, but no photographic proof.
Even though, the early morning session did show Seals potential:
Taylor EXPRESSING his FEEELINGS for the cute BARREL!
At one point, i just might post the contest pics, but i dont know if you really want to see them.
Next posts: Bigger Seal Beach with Teddy Parker, Windy Wedge with Taylor and some Pros coming soon.
