HMB Surf Team/Competition Practice @ Jetty Weds (Jan-9) 3:30 pm

Last practice before Manresa competition this weekend for team surfers will be held at the Jetty. Deep negative afternoon tide, 9-foot of swell and winds picking up from the NW will keep us pinned down at our favorite stomping grounds. Let's try to run a couple quick heats with lots of good energy just like on Sunday.

See ya there,
Your Coaches

Oliver and Marty will be at Roosevelt Beach tomorrow morning to unlock the gate and check the surf. If it's decent, we'll be surfing! If not we will move to Kelly Ave... Hopefully it will be as clean as it was this morning!

HMB Surf Team/Competition Practice @ Jetty Weds (Dec-26) 3:00 pm

For team surfers still in town for the holidays we will be holding a practice at the Jetty tomorrow. A broad combo swell from S-WNW will be picking up some steam and the wind is forecast to flip around to stiff NW gusts, which should put the Jetty back in business.

We will run a couple heats if there are enough surfers, since the next SCSSL competitions are just around the corner. The high school team will be up against Harbor at Manresa on Saturday Jan-12 and the junior high will be against New Brighton on Sunday Jan-13.

See ya,
Your Coaches

Surf if you can or support your local Surf Shops... swing by and say "Hi" to Lucy At Cowboy Surf Shop or Jeff & Cassandra at Mavericks Surf Shop. They will help you take care of your last minute Xmas Shopping Needs. If nothing else pick up some wax for your favorite surfer's stocking, as they will probably need that and a whole lot of other stuff once this weather clears!

Happy Holidays-

"Free Surf" Practice Weds for HMB Surf Team competitors due to finals week.

Time to grind it out studying for finals this week - study hard, so you can play hard over the break! We will not be holding a formal practice this week as a result.

If you carve out some time for a surf later in the week, please exercise due caution from Thursday onward as a XXL west-northwest swell is set to arrive with some more ferocious and contrary south winds. This will leave few places to hide.

Have a great week, good luck on finals!

HMB Surf TEAM/strong Comp Surfers (expecting 4-6 ft at 16-17 secs) to Kelly for a free surf at Kelly.

We're hoping that the easterly off-shores will hold for us in the am but south winds could kick-in and ruin the party.

HMB Surf Team/Competition Practice @ Jetty Weds (Dec-12) 3:30 pm

Faced with NW winds tomorrow afternoon, an increase in bumpy wind swell and a -1.6 foot low tide we will have to take our chances and seek shelter at the Jetty. This actually fine, as we all need to work on our small wave technique, which means less hopping and more rail-to-rail "S-turns."

Please bring a small wave shortboard if you have one (wider and flatter) and, as a back-up, bring a skateboard - preferably a "Carveboard" style board. If you have extras, throw in one for a friend.

See ya there,
Your Coaches
