Our beginner surfers headed back to Black Stone again on the rising tide. The sun has come out from where it has been hiding for the last several days, and the swell is holding steady at 5.5 ft. at 13 seconds. The wind continued to blow offshore from the west, and the waves were head-high to overhead on the sets. Having surfed at the same break over the last few days on a good-sized swell, our surfers are now challenging themselves on larger waves. The surfers are also learning how to efficiently handle the larger set waves that break in front of them.

Learning how to handle incoming walls of white water without expending your energy and breath is an important skill for the developing surfer to master. This skill set is mostly a mental exercise, as you must learn to keep your body and mind calm.
