Another Day of Sweet Bombs

ByJeff

Yet another day of terrific, chunky bombs out there.  Caught a few more exhilarating overhead waves.  I decided to take the Doug Haut out today to continue riding a different board each day of this swell.  My Haut is the only thruster I own.  I always have a hard time adjusting to three fins.  It takes a few wobbly drop-ins before I start getting comfortable.  Unfortunately the moment of comfort often coincides with the time to head in.

Today I had a lunch meeting to run off to, so the sesh was cut extra short.  But the good news was that I was able to take my nice camera since I could keep it in the car.

Super fun session.  What an awesome swell this has been.  I’ll be sad to see it go.
