Surfing Waves

So its been a long time since October, but I think I may have finally landed a real surfing trip!! That's right, actual waves from an actual ocean, no boats, no lakes, just waves!

I'm stoked!!

Only problem is....it's on mother's day.....we'll see how this turns out

AND:

I finally ordered a blank so I can build my new board yesterday!!

big week in the history of my surfing....sorta....

maybe I'll finally stop twitching after I get some saltwater in me....

Wow where you headed??

Are you a mum? How come mothers day is going to be a prob?

YOU'RE BUILDING YOUR OWN BOARD!!! wow I think you just became me all time hero!

Cwoual!

Right on dude, where you heading? Hope it's a good trip, hope it works out with Mother Day.

Now, c'mon, whats important, your mother or surfing?

Get in there (the ocean, not your mother) and have a good one

Yup, just heading down to Va Beach, maybe a little bit further down to my favorite spot.

I'm not a mom, but my mom is (believe it or not)


I think the deal is that we are gonna leave really early Sunday morning, and get down around 7 or 8, surf till 10 or 11, and then scoot back home for some quailty mom time.

I hope...

MSW is showing 5 ft @ 7 seconds, with a 15 mph cross shore.... not too bad, but monday is 10.5 ft @ 7 seconds with an offshore breeze.

It's official!!!!

I will be going surfing. But on Saturday. Also going to look for a new board, although I am still building!

weehooo!!!

So how many boards is that now? You are buying a new board and building a new one?

well, I have out grown my thruster...by a lot...and I keep procrastinating to get a new one.

But I am building a new one, a 6'8" retro egg, but I might pick up a retro fish as well. I do have my longboardish mal whatever retro board which is going good.

I dunno. But I am getting rid of my thruster. I thought I would keep it for boat surfing, but I'm still too big for it.

guess what happened today!

I surfed!! And, there were waves. Rather crowded, but I didn't piss anyone off too bad (a magical feat for a busy day at 1st street).

Oh yeah! and they had a monster truck rally on the beach, so between sets you got to see a whole bunch of rednecks cheering for monster trucks wrecking cars
