surfing lesson, step 1

Posted on | March 11, 2008 |

So I’m back from Hawaii again, and yes I know, its taken a bit for me to post. Things have been busy as usual but with an unexpected nice turn. I had a very good evening the other night and with any luck … well,that’s all I’ll say for now. Don’t want to jink anything or put a cart before a water buffalo or something like that.

As you can see from the shot above I went surfing. Ok so maybe you can’t really tell thats me buried in the surf below the board, about to be smacked in the head; trust me, its me. Really though, I had a great time surfing and got up about 80% of the time, but I also had what the photographer said were “some of his best crash and burn shots ever!” And with that I give you the gallery of my surfing experience, for all its glory, sweat, puke, and effort … yea, what you think sea water stays down … silly mainlander …

The drive to see the waves on the north shore was really cool too. I had never experienced driving through lava formed paths like that before. I’ll try and update this to include some video I shot while driving so you can see what I am talking about. Some truly awe inspiring stuff …

Ok , these circles under my eyes don’t make themselves folks … goodnight kids.
