I had to work today - Black Friday.... needless to say it was taxing. Marlon and I hit the beach and I got to wash the week off in the surf. Before I got in the water, I talked with Kalani about his new board - a Quatro Wing Drifter 5'6". Looked really nice and user friendly.
I brought out the skinny 4'10", the GL180 and the No.9 rear stabilizer. First two waves were throw aways - but I quick recalibrated and picked up several long rides after. With the waves around waist high, I was in milk it mode. I pumped back out a few times, but I was more concerned about the shallow depth beneath the board on the inside - so I usually opted to bail instead of burning energy on a pump that might actually cause damage to the foil.
I had some good waves this afternoon - glad to have gone out and enjoyed the evening surf!
