Jeff’s 2009 Surf Roundup

Hope you all had a wonderful new year’s day and had some time to spend with family and friends.  We sure did.  I know we’ve been cyber-silent for a bit, but we back and ready to surf the new year.  But before we do that, I decided to take a look back on my stats for 2009.  Granted, these data are a bit goofed since we only started the site in June of last year, so this is really a 6 month recap.  Still, it’s fun to see what I was up to from June to December. So, without further ado:

Total surf sessions logged: 96 (that averages to just under once every 2 days)

I won’t bother with tabulating weather or water temp, and wave size is a bit hard to tabulate with the all the x’, x’-y’, x’-y’+, y’+ type values, but I did calculate that I had 69 surf sessions where the waves were 3 feet or higher and 18 sessions where the waves included 5’+ swells.

So what can I take away from this?  Well, I was lucky enough to have 16 days that I considered to be epic within 6 months.  How sweet is that?!  Clearly I tend to favor my Harbour boards (but that is no surprise).  I could use some more exploration – only a half dozen sessions were outside my comfort zone.  But maybe venturing out once a month is decent. Finally, I need to normalize my data better for easier tabulating next time.
