It was a fine day for noseriding, though I really didn’t have the board for it. Still, I managed a few cheater fives. But the waves were excellent – good shape, rights and lefts, peeling at a slight angle to the beach… The rides were long and wonderful. The rides were so long in fact that I was moving from the pier to two towers down and back again in a matter of a few waves. Worked on building speed today and I think I made some good progress.
My bike rack broke last week. So I was off to Harbour to pick up a new on. On the way, while driving on PCH, the waves looked fun and the sun was out, so I stopped for a quick surf session. Luckily I happened t have the Spherical Revolver in the car and a…

I love surfing as much as the next guy. But here is another case of someone taking a sport to the XTREME! I imagine you’d have to dress up like Randy from A Christmas Story, but then how does one paddle? Paddling methods must also be XTREME! but I don’t know what that might be….
