Video: Wind/Swell


Wind/Swell from Kookingitup on Vimeo.

I don't know what it is about windswell in San Diego, but if it's is above three and half feet and the interval is at eight seconds, beach breaks become one fun place to be.  Peaky, sectiony, and sometimes really good hollow waves (if you catch it at the right tide) are pretty common when a decent windswell hits.  And let me tell you, I never thought I'd write "decent windswell".

  1. Agreed. Maybe it's because all we've had this winter is windswell, but it has made the beach come alive.

    1. Totally! Believe it or not, I'd take windswell over long period on some days.
