A swell that was supposed to fill in after the last swell mysteriously evaporated from all swell models and I got to see this stretch of beach at flatness. Granted, it wasn't completely flat, but I took the last ten or so days to get my amperage up.
I saw the first of the new albeit modest swell would be hitting overnight and I made plans to walk out in the dark. There was basically nothing at PC and I walked the twelve or so minutes to Pangas and watched one logger paddle out. A set wave came every ten minutes or so. Out thar.
The session was about what I expected. I caught a long left on which I did very conservative 'turns' and got almost all of the way to the beach before I kicked out.
I caught a wave really late, and air-dropped then ate it.
The most memorable thing that happened was as I was paddling out the last time I felt a jolt on my right wrist. It felt at about a quarter-strength of getting an electric shock. As soon as I felt it, I felt it wrap around to my forearm. It was pretty nasty and I assumed it was a jellyfish sting but I think it's chicicaste, as it felt as thought it was a thread wrapping around me.
I caught a wave all the way in. It closed out and I just kept going on it until just before hitting the sand.
