You are right about the advisories for the surf. The day we surfed was actually the small day between some larger days. Generally, I don't kayak surf in anything more than 4-6 feet. The guys who kayak surf every weekend love the bigger stuff, but I surf only about 1-2 times per month. I am just not out there enough to be good at avoiding the beatings and be use to taking them in those bigger waves.
