When I say "surfing", I'm using that word
very loosely. I did manage to ride a couple of nice waves. The water was only 52 degrees and I fell in a lot. Luckily, the air temp was really nice, probably close to 60 degrees. There were quite a few surfers down the beach but didn't see anyone on a SUP. I tried out my new
Werner Nitro paddle. I really like this paddle, I think it's going to be great for surfing, it's very light and very easy to maintain a high cadence.
Surfing is NOT easy and not for the timid. I have a huge amount of respect for the people that make it look effortless. It was a really nice day today, probably waist high sets, not too choppy and very light wind. I would write more but I'm so tired! Here are some pictures from today.

Blessed to live so close to the ocean. |

Letting Natalie sit on the boad while I controlled the tail with one hand and held her PFD with the other. |
