MARINE LAYER / HARBOR BERTH / 760 ROLL

(760) 555-0153

Harbor · marine layer · vertical roll

Gate the roll the layer actually lets you land.

Roll Gate is a hatch plate on North Coast Highway. We do not copy a vertical curve from a desert card. We read whether the face's roll launches a ball the layer can keep, then we clamp the rest.

Berth A

High roll

More vertical curve launches. In marine layer that launch becomes hang time you cannot land before the pier wind eats it. We clamp this hatch unless your strike lives low on the face.

Berth B

Low roll

A flatter vertical face tells the truth about a high strike. Players who already live up the face do not need extra hang. We leave the plate closer to flat.

Berth C

Desert card

A roll copied from inland heat. Fine as a postcard. We will not clamp it as a hatch on this harbor.

Berth D

Layer lift

When the layer burns off, the same roll that ballooned at eight becomes a dart at noon. Kade Lin asks which hour is home before Wren files anything.

Notes from people who left a desert card at the hatch

Wren read my face and the roll was a balloon I had been calling carry. Marine layer kept it in the air until the pier wind billed me. We clamped lower. San Luis Rey mornings started landing.

They asked whether I play under the layer or after it lifts. I said both. Bex sold me a second berth. I complained. Then Saturday happened.
