Session 136 - Sep 6 - SC Beachy, 38th

Sat Sep 6, afternoon, 7'6 Kingfish, 9'8 Junod

Bennett surf school, open for business again...this time Cory and James from work made the visit down to SC, the kids wanted to surf so surf we did. To get away from the weekend mob we drove 15 minutes to a not-very-good but not-very-crowded beach break and threw 'em in the water. Surf was as mentioned above not that good, but for a couple first timers, just being able to find your own stretch of beach, paddle out, and catch wave after wave of whitewater to the beach is as good a way as any to start out.

After they decided they had mastered that skill, and the wind had blown out our already mediocre surf even more, we packed up and did the in-wetsuit drive back home. These guys were frothing to surf more, wanted some real surf, so we paddled right on out at 38th. Surf working actually kind of decent, so we sat between 2nd peak and 38th in kind of no-mans land, but occasionally a wave would sneak on through. Cory caught one, got up, and was pumped on that.

After a good long day of sun and surf we came in, had a beer, got some dinner and sent the city kids back on their way.
