Lineup Insights
The Wave
Best windows are longer-period E-SE swell with NW to N winds.
Currents still shift quickly around jetties and bars, and mid tide often gives the cleanest, most makeable sections.
Lineup Guide
Treat this entry as the Beach 67th/69th stretch (not the 92nd Street jetty peak): wider takeoff zones, fewer jetty-led wedges, and generally friendlier shape on smaller days.
Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
