Every year, depending on the arrival of big surf, they hold a big-surf contest at a place called Mavericks, just on the other side of the hills from us. Crazy big waves. The picture above was from yesterday. Although the competition hasn't started, the waves have been ridiculously large. The guy in the picture is just standing there realizing he is going to get creamed by that wave. You can see the resulting wipeout shots here. The article is worth reading, too. He survived and went out to catch another.
In other news, a sea lion apparently stopped traffic in San Carlos, just up the street from us.
