Marlon and I hit the beach yesterday afternoon. Almost the same conditions are previous afternoon sessions - upcoming high (the smaller of the daily high tides) at 0.9', some wind from the S, a waist high swell and a mellow crowd. Marlon bumped into a friend so he was mainly on the inside, but I kept getting drawn outside to stay away from the shallow takeoffs inside, and to try and get more practice taking off at the peak.
I botched a few takeoffs, but I'm sure they were spectacular to watch... I did get a bunch of long rides also - standup walls where I could glide along until a section peeked - then lean into a cutback to keep running with the wave - couldn't do this on my longboard. But I also don't have to worry about running aground on my longboard either.
Another great wave riding session!
