I Am Jack’s Unhealthy Obsession With Adventure Sports
Given my current situation — between careers, waiting to hear back on a very promising job opportunity, just returning from a 3 day snowboarding trip to Lake Tahoe, and at a loss for good writing material — I am, of course, going to do what anyone in my situation would do:
I’m going surfing for 4 days in Puerto Rico over the weekend. We leave tomorrow, and if the following surf report is any indication, we should have spaghetti arms by noon on Monday.
THURSDAY: 2-3’+ becoming 5-6’ N swell for the N coast. Rincon is 1-2’+ becoming 5-6’ as N swell rises. Plus sets are likely late in the day at the top spots. Winds are ESE/E 11-16kts.
FRIDAY: 4-5’ N swell. Winds are ESE 6-11kts.
SATURDAY: 3-4’ ENE trade/N swell mix for the N coast. 2-3’ N swell for Rincon. Winds are ESE/E 8-13kts.
SUNDAY: 4-5’ becoming 5-6’+ N swell. Winds are E 10-15kts.
EXTENDED FORECAST OUTLOOK: Frontal activity off of the US East Coast is setting up a steady run of fun surf for the island. The N coast will see the largest surf from trade swell/background swell combo. A reinforcing shot of swell picks up early Thursday. This hold steady into Friday before coming down a notch for Saturday. By Sunday another reinforcing shot of N swell is expected. This swell holds steady Monday and Tuesday while rotating more NE by Tuesday.
This is a picture of the reef right out back of my friend’s house off of Rincon, where we will be doing the most damage this weekend. It goes off like a damn surf-machine.
