2012_02_08 - Mr. Pente vs. surf forecast



















































with the phone ringing constantly, I had all the gear set for a nice morning.

early light, nice swell and wonderful period.
yesterday night windguru "said" it was going to rock today...
of course there were a couple of surf forecasts that didn't agree... but obviously they were  wrong.

well!!!
how many times did this happen already?
we all want to believe in the best forecast possible, if there is a slight chance of a short and wonderful surf session... we create an image of a perfect day!
but upon a energising breakfast, a quick rush to the car and an insane race to the beach...
reality strikes and the day is doomed.

Nelson Penteado, taking the rest of what the morning swell has to offer.
