Last night I looked for North Rincon Surfline forecast and was a flat outlook. This morning decided  to travel north, but something inside me change direction to Rincon. For my surprise it was glassy and waves from knee to chest high. Something to learn, at the end mother nature will decide. Enjoy the ride
