Korrey Smith

For those of you who know Korrey Smith, you’d be familiar with his meticulous wave evaluation system. This system, although slightly puzzling in its appearance, is a highly accurate procedure used to provide a basic account of a session on a scale of 1 to 10.

0/10 = onshore, below 1ft with heavy crowd. No chicks on beach, predicted precipitation and Choc on the peak. “Spewin!”
2/10 = onshore, solid 1ft with moderate to heavy crowd. No barrels or bowls. “This is fucked!”
4/10 = offshore, solid 2ft with 2.5ft sets. No more than 10 people on peak, occasional barrel and bowl. “Definitely worth getting wet.”
6/10 = offshore, 2-3ft with 5-10 people out. Barrels and solid wall for ample carves. “Fuck yeah some smokers out there.”
8/10 = offshore, 3-4ft conditions with minimal crowd. Barrels and bowls. “Bullshit and possibly the session of the year.”
10/10 = offshore, 4-6ft conditions, local crew with no Choc on peak. Big barrels and even bigger bowls. Chicks on the beach. “Holy shit, best I’ve ever seen, you blew it!”
