Paddled out into small glassy surf knee to thigh high but beautiful water just
a few friends no tourist hordes. All the world behind you and nothing but endless horizon in front, under you the slimmest of objects no motor, no sail, just the ocean and you.
About 10 the surf jumped up waist rib perfect a frames super long walls. The high tide push was perfect, these are the moments that surfing gifts us. Lifelong friends sharing a very personal relationship with our Mother together sharing that gift of life.
Only a surfer knows the feeling!
