August 3, 2007 The Wall, Hampton, NH

I had the day off to go camping at Salisbury Beach with Mike and Lance, but we decided not to stay overnight. They were fishing at Sandy Point, but we decided to go to the beach before meeting up with them. (If i'm driving all the way to the ocean, I'm going surfing, not fishing.) We ate lunch at a really cool 50's diner called Fast Eddies, then got to the wall at around mid tide, but it seemed closer to high tide. It was really hot out and the water was really warm (in the low 70's). The waves were about knee-waist and clean with a SW wind. I got one great left on the face and had a nice dismount. Also some nice rights with good dismounts. There were tons of people and a lot of swimmers to avoid too. I had to bail out on one to not hit some swimmers. The tide eventually got too high and the waves flattened. Mel and Laura ran out of beach sand and were on the rocks. Used my 2 mil top again. Good waves and fun.
