i surfed this morning. it was pig perfect.
i went left today. the wave below has a sweet little left on it. i was tucked into the curl on mine. grabbed the rail and let it huck the lip over and out. it was great to hear the syphon and see the lip over my right shoulder out in front of me.
the set up.
there is a little wave peeling just above the tail of my board in the shot below.
pre paddle out.
yeah.

surfing!

this is why i live in southern california.
sliders point had great waves today.
i was stationed on this corner. i can't count the number of head dips, curl shoots, nose rides, and full rail cutbacks...not to mention the "lip fondle-ing do nothing but sit there parallel stance and have a little syphon spin around your chest"s that i had. man...i needed a day like today. it's days like this , that make me feel like ...if every human experienced this once or twice a year...we wouldn't have any wars.
pelicans!
to have my health, and a healthy happy family is all i could ever ask for. i am blessed to have those. to have this be my local break...that shit is just SILLY!
sliders point!! where is everybody?!
praise be to the sand bar!
a little insider sneaks through. these little guys were so crisp.
yeah.
uhh....yeah.
2.5 hours of conveyor belt. i was flopping noodles around. it was a day where i felt like i learned more about my board. a day where you could relax. wide open faces. stalls, fade way out in the flats....crisp glassy walls of opportunity.
what the FUCK?!
need i say ...TITS!!! it was pig CITY!!
so many perfect waves today!
i like this shot of the bright glassy wall down the point.

?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it is nice to live in a time where true men still make art.

wax buddy!

I am so stoked on my wax buddy! it was time to strip and re-wax my cooperfish flex pig!i used to just think a wax comb was a wax comb... now...with this wax buddy...every thing is different. these things fit nicely in your hand, as a result..it gives a better angle or something. it seemed like it was the easiest wax stripping I have ever done!
after stripping the wax yesterday, i waxed her up this morning and had a sesh!! check the video!!
