Keep them out of the sun. UV breaks down lycra -and neoprene.

yes, but there appears to be a follow-up low behind it.

anyway, active phase of the monsoon trough, we'll see what happens.

Very restricted swell window. Blocked by New Cal mostly.

Hence mostly small surf other than the rare SSE direction.

All-time gamefishing.
