October 2006


The surf was pretty big Saturday. Overhead plus. And it was clean. This unlucky fellow appeared from the water just after I had finished my so so session:

Thanks everyone. Thanks flickr.

My new stick:

new J. Blair longboard 1

new J. Blair longboard 2

new J. Blair longboard 3

I recently purchsed this 8′6″ longboard through Wardog in Santa Barbara by the shaper Joe Blair of Solana Beach, California. The feelings that accompany the acquisition of a new surfboard are hard to describe. Needless to say, after 3 sessions I’m stoked.

The first day out on it happened near Yachats on Oregon’s central coast:
