ding ding ding

it not that bad. but still..........my first session on the thing?

offshore, really really offshore....

today was the maiden surf of the turd burger. the ocean was being groomed by 20-35mph offshore or east winds. the air was lingering around the 30deg. mark. let me put it this way, i was the coldest i have ever been after a surf session, maybe the coldest i've been in my life. a dude pulled up next to me in the parking lot and opened his door, the wind ripped it out of his hand and his door smashed my passenger side mirror. i was just hoping this wasn't going to be one of those days. the turd goes pretty well for my first board. it took awhile to figure it out, but by the end of the session i had a couple of good rights and even a left. to top the session off this guy ran me over while i was paddling back out. i don't know if he had tunnel vision or what but he didn't see me and i couldn't paddle fast enough. his fin chopped off the corner of my tail and that's that. looks like i will learn how to do ding repair. i'm glad it was the turd burger that got ran over and not a board i just payed 800bucks for
