esa-snc sunday @ carolina beach

wake up early



looking bait

little snap

bottom turn

 early rise sunday for 1st esa event.  got down at 7:15 to find out the boy didn't surf til 1.  Hum, well
went out for a surf and goodness you could taste the menhaden in the water, smell'em taste'em and feel the oil in your eyes.  i am hope the guy in the yellowfin found bait with ease 'cause it seemed to be everywhere.  finally 1:15 menehuenes up and little snap was worth a 5 (6.4 got him 2nd in his heat).  long day to have the waves disappear under the tide and the mene's final got moved to ocean isle in a month.  alrighty then.

4'10" new ride for the boy #5 for me getting better

WOW, summer is cruising by, pain and surfing.  Can't say surf has been great but it has been doable almost all summer.  Not sure how many days it has been but we have not missed many, feeling water logged and the back is tight.  Must be growing new muscles.  The kid is loving the new ride.  A 4'10" fat bottom ride that i installed Future fin boxes in without a jig of any sorts.  Nerve racking at best.
Here's a collection of web found favorites since i haven't been taking too many photos this summer.  All (except the last one) were found on the web and I have no idea where credit belongs, sorry about that. 
Enjoy what's left of the neoprene days.
