The Party's Over

What Up Surfriders,

Yep , you guessed it , 5 th. day in a row of super fun offshore surf. Melissa and I were the only ones out at Motels this afternoon . Took out the Hobie ATR out for wind equalizer and had a blast . The best part was watching Melissa catch so many perfect waves as she was one out as I sat on the beach . Went to the Lighthouse earlier and saw some qualifying heats for this weekend US Surf Kayaking Championships .I tried to Bro Down with the owner of the vehicle above { homemade quad job , sound familiar } . I said " nice kayak " and was quickly informed that it was a waveski , and that he was the Kelly Slater of wavesking {i.e. the quiksilver sticker}. I threw a him shaka and a "right on " , and was able to contain my laughter as I strolled on to watch him blow up in another "explosive" heat. Lots of traveling surfers standing on the beach in disbelief as kayakers{ there's only about 20 of them } have a permit for the first jetty for the rest of the week . It's all about the enjoyment of riding waves and not the vehicle , so smile and enjoy your fellow surfsliders .Zog

Vacation Is Fun !

Morning Surfriders ,

Renting a house named " Offshore " was definitely a good omen .The offshore winds are still blowing , and more small but perfect surf rolling in .Here's few from yesterday afternoons super session. Ruby and Ginger are digging vacation , and think 4 walks a day should be part of their new routine. Zog

Perfect high tide peelers breaking only about 25 yards off the beach with only Melissa and myself out. It's low tide , we're fueling up and heading back out , more later.Zog

Frisco Freight Trains

Beunos Tardes Surfriders ,

Frisco was fantastic , super hard offshores , low tide and chest to head reeling lefts. Another awesome surf session with wifey , only caught one shot of her { that's her from the beach } , but she caught so many fun waves. Wind is clocking around offshore as I type.The north side is going to pump tomorrow with a beefy swell rolling in from KDH to Buxton . Zog
