A Bunch of Rights to Myself..By Eric Cedeno

3-23-13

I waited for the morning high tide to drop a little before I headed down to the beach. I couldn't find any parking at Topaz so i headed south and parked at Avenue A. The surf had really calmed down from the day before and I was surprised at how strong the offshore wind was blowing. I had a few board to choose from. I thought I had grabbed the 6' 4" new Lost board when I loaded up, but I grabbed my 6'4" Mel Machine instead. I ended up taking out my 6'10" mini log again. It felt like the right board for today. I suited up and made my way down the ramp and to the sand. I jogged north towards Knob Hill where I found a hole where a good right was consistently breaking. I was surprised no one else was surfing it. I had it all to myself. I caught a few in and outs and had a really good time by myself. I heard that Manhattan was firing and hoped that the surf would stick around for another day. I guess I'll find out tomorrow...
