It is what it is and a suprising surf at North Bay Scabs

Had look on the way south... Onshore but strangely inviting. Got in with a handful of others but surfed alone, was fun in its own way, recently repaired single fin taking the mush at speed, maybe more in Yorkshire this eve.

Part two, drove up from Hull to North Bay after work to be greeted by some nice sets rolling in. Quick change and into the line up, few ok waves then a snapped leash so back to the car for a spare.

Back in, good waves coming through at a nice enough size, small crowd and no wind. Took a wee while to get in rhythm with the waves as some where a bit fat and once I started to surf it in the pocket it all came together and made sense. Good rides and with a final ride all the way to the beach in near darkness.

Finished up with a great drive - Scabs - Whitby - Teeside.

Moon

From our front window.

Decent day at the beach on the big tides, one when it was all about it being a mega low tide day but turned into a best at high tide moment. Far end of pease was never that good and after a couple of sessions I paddle the longboard up to the reef, which looked poor at best. 

Well it was messy but the swell battled the wind and a few came through. Was joined by a couple more and we traded waves for an hour before it got really really fat at high.

Couple of excellent fast fast waves mid sesh took it from gash to not bad, not bad.
