Surf after dentist appointment.

This afternoon, I had a fun little session at 4 mile.

This was after I drove over to the Haut shop to check out some new boards. I saw a board that I really liked, it had a gutter and an almost square tail, with a little bit of swallow tail cut into it. It was consignment but it was nice. Maybe I can bargain with a handful of cash. Plus, they throw in some ding repair.

Maybe I can take my fish in and get it cleaned up, along with my 3-2 summer/so-cal wetsuit. It is starting to unravel in several places. But, that means I use it. In perspective, O'neill suits seem less delicate than RipCurl suits.

4-mile was fun. There were only 2 other people out there. Again, not much surf; so this place is empty. It was a great workout. The run/walk from the car, and then the paddle out from the channel - not from the reef.

I got four waist-high waves. The last one, I had a nice cut-back. I liked it mellow too. Good to practice, especially the paddle in...

On Sunday morning I am going to try to surf Ocean Beach.
