A Reminder



This summer has been nothing but a string of injuries for me. Reader rick posted this on another board and reminded me of what I have to look forward to locally this winter. God, I love surfing Swarmies.

We called it 'big friday' for a while because it was too big to paddle out at San Onofre. so we went to Swami's where even at 10 go 12 you could paddle out in the channel. Not having surfed it much, it took a few minutes to line up a good one. about half way down the line it nailed me and i never saw it coming. washed the board around on the rocks but it survived, with it's double ten oz glass job. hauled it back up the cliff trail and went home. 1962

the only explanation for paddling out in that mess is testosterone
