Entry 253 - New Fin

Bought a new 9" wide fin this weekend to try out noseriding this summer. First try today... success! No, wasn't hanging ten or five but I did feel the difference. The board really dug into the wave and held strong through the sections. Rode higher on the face than I was with the 6.5" fin. Really a cool, different feel. Loved it. Now I'm gonna put the 6.5" fin on the 8' Brog and see how that works out.

Entry 252 - Porto Drift

Thought today was gonna be better than the past few days in terms of shape but I was wrong. Everything was pretty walled up with the occasional rideable stuff getting through. The rip going up the coast was pretty strong too. Lots of paddling just to stay between 40th and 44th. Mostly lefts today.
