Funny thing is that you can be 20 miles away and the wind would be none existent. You pack the yak go to Malibu just to find that the waves are chest high white caps as far as you can see standing on top of the hill. Then the ego says hey that only wimps go back. So I get the the yak to the water all loaded up and standing there trying to time the waves. There was no way as they came from two diffrent direction. With every once in a while a huge wave would roll to shore. Then two surfers came to shore saying that its just not fun anymore. I just packed up and left. Happend last year. When ever they mention wind guests in Malibu area I just rather go hiking.
I learned that wind in Malibu can get very nasty. It tends to build waves that my guess only, Are about 45deg to the normal swell. So you get hit from two fronts, You feel like you are in a washing machine and that makes me sea sick and then being sea sick on a kayak makes me want to die.
