Session 12 & 13 - Feb 8 - SC Beachy, Hook

Got back from NYC late on Saturday night and needed to get myself to the beach, ASAP!!! I missed it. NYC was fun, but, exhausting. City livin'.

Joel and Ramin were posted up on the LazyTown couch and floor when I got home, good to have some surf company for the next day. We woke up kind of late and took our time, surf wasn't looking anything all that amazingly exciting but it was definitely surfable...no kook cord contest going on out at 1st peak, so we rode bikes up the road a bit and paddled out...joined only a few other guys, enough waves for all. Joel and Ramin (Joel especially) was throwing himself into all sorts of waves, way too deep, actually pulled out a couple but took his share of beatings at the same time. I surfed a bit more conservatively but still got some good waves, surf was kind of choppy and windy but some definite pulse in the water to keep it interesting. Good to be back home, thats for sure.

Came back home and watched some NBA hoops in the afternoon, and later paddled out again for #2 at the Hook this time. Not a whole lot of note to write about, surf wasn't that great on a really low tide, but whatever it was worth it. We had fun. Been surfing the 6'2 KG a lot lately, I think it does actually help me out a bit to stick with a single board for a while at least and try to figure it out...maybe need to rethink that 13 (or is it 14? 15?) board quiver thing. (maybe not)
