FunGunner - Down 7

Small cold windy. Still got some fun ones...

Mistake - Down 7

Not 8...

Down 8 - No surf for two days... Nursing my old aching body

Hopefully going to get on it tomorrow. Whether or not it is the fun gun... I don't know. I'm so looking forward to August 7th... My birthday and the first contest. I cannot wait. So fun... Something to surf for right now. Something to get healthy for. Top 3 is the goal this year. I know I can do it. If Yari is there... Who cares. I think Jay and I are both really hungry for a win, which will make it even more fun. Yari or not I want one of those trophies. I will surf some NSSA events as well this year. Just cuz, it is fun...

World Cup Northside

Knocked out a surf between games this morning. Bad. Horrible. Might have even made top ten worst days this year. Whoa. Messy.

Olde Ship with Ulloa. Go Spain.

Old World

You try to get along. Mix in. Be part of the whole. But sometimes, you have to move against the grain, say piss off, go away, sorry I was here first to the nice German woman pleading for your seat.

World Cup Quarterfinals.

Pre-lameness

Friday morning. Woke up early to meet Aaron at the bar. Reminiscent of last Friday. Yep, Brazil was playing again and we were there to see them lose with a hundred other World Cup fans. It was sad I have to admit, I was looking forward to a Germany Brazil final, so I played along with the crowd. Truth is, I read a lot of shit online that had me sending a flurry of texts to friend in Vegas putting 100 bucks on the Dutch to win. Who does that? Gamblers I suppose, and me, at least this week that is. Not sure how that'll turn out, but who cares, my ego was wafting with confidence on idea that I actually had some sort of insight that others didn't see. Then again, it could have gone either way.

What is this, a soccer blog? Okay, after the game I grabbed my board and met another friend on the north side. Party weekend was already starting up, junior life guards, NSSA Championships, HSS Surf School and a host of beach goers were all on it. Total zoo, but still fun. I'd give it 5.4 on 1-10 scale and my surfing a 7.8.

In the office now on a day off, trying to pull together ideas for a Tuesday morning meeting in Sacramento. Who does that? Booking a post holiday meeting first thing on the day back, and in another city even.

Ugh. Minus 26 and loving the shit out of it, everyday.

6 Down - Feeling it

New pad is working out well.  Took our dog on a run on my skater this morning while I watched the crowded waves - the spotted dude is so outta shape!  This morning was good and I was on it at 5:30.  Surfed until about 7 when it was completely packed out.  Chest high with really good shape.  I had an 8 point ride this morning.  Massive carve to tail release, full rail cut back off the white water hard, two pumps and then blow the tail.  Surfing really well today.  No leash, lost my board once and didn't hold back.  That has me feeling it.  Looking forward to surfing with homey this weekend, it should be fun.  Maybe Dume.  Maybe somewhere else, I don't know.
