The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s happening for the next couple of weeks.
We’re on Westerland, Sylt, and it’s a rough start. There’s a big gap in the action. From Saturday the 25th of July right through to Friday the 31st of July, it’s a write-off. The waves are tiny, blown out, or just not there. The energy is weak, with combined energy readings staying under 100, and sometimes dropping to single digits. The wind is mostly cross or onshore, just making a mess of things. It’s a period for staying dry.
The first real chance comes on Sunday, the 26th of July. The morning is the golden window. The wind is dead calm, glassy, with a 0.9m WNW swell running at 7 seconds. The combined energy is 130 (moderate), so there’s some push. The waves will be rideable, but the morning is the only time for clean conditions. The afternoon turns clean with a light offshore breeze from the SSE at 15 km/h, and the period stretches to 9 seconds, giving the waves a bit more shape. It’s ordinary, but it’s the only real window we get.
After that, it’s back to the lull. The wind swings hard onshore from the WNW on the 27th at 35 km/h, and the swell is short and lumpy. The next few days the swell drops to nothing. Heights hit 0.1m, energy is in the single digits. The wind stays cross or onshore, keeping the surface rough.
The next time we see any real swell is on the 8th of August. Saturday morning brings a 1.1m swell from the W, but the wind is cross-onshore from the NNW. Energy builds to 89 in the morning, then to 139 in the afternoon (moderate). The afternoon has a stronger 1.2m swell, but the wind is still onshore. It’s the best of a bad week. The 9th of August gives a glassy morning with the wind down to nothing, but the swell is small at 0.7m. Clean, but tiny.
Water temp is 18°C, which is a tick warmer than usual for this time of year, so the rubber won’t need to be too thick.
The standout is the Sunday, 26th of July. The morning glass and the afternoon offshore wind are the only times you’ll find clean, surfable waves. It won’t be epic, but it’s the only game in town. For the rest, you’re waiting.
Rusty out.
