Repairing the breakwall
Surf: 4.3 ft at 10.0 s from the W at 297°
Ben mentioned needing to part with his lovely Bing Gold Standard in order to make room for a new board on the way. After a week of agonizing (is 9’6 too big? Do I want this board? Should Chris buy this board instead of me?), I reluctantly passed and Chris snatched it up.
Of course I had to try it out. I did the sensible thing and waited till after he got some swooping big waves, some step-filled long waves, and a few closeouts before asking to ride it.
It’s fuuun. Stable, I got some walking around. Swooshy, I got some swooshing in.
I did totally manage to wreck myself falling on the fin. Got a nice bruise on my ribs and thigh, but still, fun morning. 😀
I want a fancy longboard now!
