Surfing Great Lake waves

[Canuck34]

By way of an update.

What a difference a few days make.  I have had the chance to get out on some decent sized wave days now on Lake Ontario at Ashbridges.  Where before I thought "how will I be able to get out through these waves" now I quite easily can paddle out standing through the breakers.  Also, I can now stand while the waves pass me as I have the board perpendicular to the waves so that I can see what I want to catch. 

I'm still not great at catching the waves, but have had a few great rides all the way into the beach. 

Now, large boat wakes are nothing, and some big 4-5 foot messy wind swells are pretty easy to handle.

Next step is catching more of the ones I am trying to paddle for.
