Entry 141 - Looked Good


Looked good on the camera. Looked good from the parking lot. Was good for about 20 minutes and then turned bumpy and got close to choppy. Still searching for the nice right but caught 2 okay lefts and a short right. Rest of the time I spent paddling in the chop. Water was warm though!

In the parking lot about to leave when me and a few guys saw two lifeguards rescue two guys from a heck of a rip current around where I paddled in. No wonder I was tired.

Entry 140 - Egg All The Way


Now with the Stewart in the shop, it's all about the Egg. Crumbly, weak stuff on tap for the paddle out right around low tide. Skipped the GoPro as well - time for a change. With no GoPro I found myself digging a little deeper and being a little more adventurous. The lack of a crowd helped too. While I was holding out for a least one nice right, all I caught were lefts. A fun session which I wish I could have extended through mid-morning if it weren't for work.

Entry 139 - First Ding of Summer


Beautiful day today! Warm sun, warm ocean, good friends, and good waves... and then a ding to end my session early. Sucks!! After catching a few lefts and two nice rights, guy on a longboard (part of the regular crowd) tried to make it past me and popped his board out. I had a choice... sacrifice my board or potentially get hit in the head. I chose my board and dove under the incoming whitewater hoping for no damage. I guess it could have been worse! So, today is now ding repair day.
