Surfing Waves

I just got the custom board ive been waiting for. It's a 6'4 19 wide by 2.5 thick.

To update from my previous post, I had suffered a tragic loss of someone that was very close to me. I couldnt surf anymore because not even surfing would clear my mind. I sold both of my boards and started going to the gym. It has been about 7 months since Ive surfed (regularly...still went out maybe once every couple weeks on a friends board). I went to the gym a lot and put on about 25 lbs!! (Im the guy that was eating the raw eggs!) I was eating about 8-10 scrambled.

So, Im coming back about 20 lbs heavier than I was (only 12%body fat though). It will be interesting to see how I can surf on this 6'4 coming from a 6'6. I surfed some on a 5'11 fish and it was alright....I plan on completely switching to surfing only unless there are no waves.

Damn.,...long post.

Welcome back dude!

Welcome back bro

Not playing this game again... https://surfing-waves.com/forum/view ... hp?p=30124

I took the bodyboard out yesterday at windansea (they hate bodyboarders there). I still had a good time, caught some waves. It was even warm enough to trunk it!

Glad to hear you got your dream board. You know they make high-protein shakes now-adays that are probably healthier and less expensive than all of those raw eggs you've been bulking up on. Rocky 1 from 1975 still rules though (eat the raw eggs/hit the side of beef etc)!

you know Ive mellowed out a little since the raw eggs. I usually eat scrambled eggs now. Found out my blood pressure was a little high! Surf is up here in SD on THursday with a little NW wind swell.

Where'd you get the surf's up report? All I can find are knee to waist high reports...

seems like maybe 3-4 windswell for thursday evening. That doesnt necessarily mean the waves will be 3-4...depends on the break of course.

Welcome back how was the board; an easy transition from the 6'6?

yeah, the transition was not too bad. Ive been going out a windansea on the smaller days and last time I was able to make a few turns. still getting used to the tricept burn.

Hey rambo, welcome back!

heres a couple pics of me at windansea. it's actually the very end of a ride that I had. its not that impressive but hey, it's online.
