1/21/10 Santa Barbara

Well I would definitely advise not surfing tomorrow.  If you do insist on getting wetter than you would from just walking outside(as in going in the ocean) make sure to have a jet ski ready to pick you up in case you get sucked down by a vortex or sucked up by a water spout.  There’s supposed to be more rain tomorrow, and if it looks anything like it did today then the ocean will be about as ugly as it gets in Santa Barbara.  Also the water looks like chocolate milk, but I would not suggest drinking it unless you want to get Hepatitis A-Z.

I went to this sick spot today.  It was behind a fire department and we had to cut through some barbed wire to get there, but it was totally worth it.  The drainage basin was about one hundred yards long and there were a few rock sections that I had to navigate through and even air over.  My buddy was driving the truck and he was able to get it up to about 40-50 because the truck is super fast.  Well a got a few runs in in the brown/black water before we were chased out by a fireman who had his hose on full blast at us.  I aired up out of the drainage basin and my friend driving the truck kept going with me being pulled along behind so that we could get away fast.

Hey everybody, its a little late in the day but heres your surf predictions for today:

our top prediction is Campus point/poles- the wind is slightly offshore, plenty of swell in the water although watch out for inconsistent surf and STD’s floating around in the water

Also number two spot would be sandspit with similar offshore winds although be mindful of the tide because if it is too high it will shut down
