Surf Report 10/9/2014

Small day - but the tide drained out far (due to the full moon). We were able to see a part of the beach that doesn't get dry all that often. That changed the breaking wave pattern a lot - but the waves were small anyways. Super fun day!!!

La and the kids have actually surfed a spot that I haven't - the south end of Little Talbot Island. In actuality, the surf mat is one of the most fun, yet most technical ways of surfing. La is obviously a natural!!!

We went surfing again hoping to pick up some of the leftovers from Edouard. The wind was onshore, the surface choppy and the surf was bigger. We went a high tide so the kids wouldn't be wrecked for the rest of the day (we're home schooling this year - easier while we are in the trailer, and better for the kids). So what happens when you talk smack about a hurricane swell from the previous day??? You get SPANKED! I got SPANKED! Edouard did have some power after all. But the waves were harder to ride because of the chop (or that's my story and I'm sticking to it). I spent the majority of the time doing this... takeoff, beef the bottom turn or pearl the nose, do an epic front flip and blow bubbles. Good thing I don't have an ego that is fragile or needy... I did catch a few good ones (emphasis on "few") The kids and La had more sense and played on the inside. Despite the spanking - a great day!

Surf Report 9/17/2014 Part 2

I told the kids they "lived reason number three that homeschooling is awesome... schedule flexibility!!!!" Noe is stuck to the surf mat. Noe is more of a "go with the flow" surfer - nothing wrong with that, we all have our own motivators. Here's Noe going with the flow! ;)

And We Surfed

More and more I absolutely love surfing this mat!!! Although the kids actually bodysurfed more this trip than any before (maybe the water temps was finally warm enough).
