Sunday dawn patrol with Tim

[TourmoSUPr]

Thanks for instigating the get together Tim. I second all the comments how it was a very positive vibe!

I carried two of Tim's boards down to the beach. You can read all the dimensions he posts, but it really doesn't sink in how small these boards are until you carry them. His boards are ridiculously light, narrow and thin. Makes my board feel like a pig and it's an 8-10!

To steal the slogan from the PGA, "These guys are good". As my skill set is still building, I was a bit intimidated by some of the sets. It did give me the chance to watch some true craftsman work. I was beside Tim as a rogue wave approached. I thought we were both paddling like hell to get over it, until Tim pivoted in front and took off down the face with a big "WHOOOP"! Sorry for being in your way. That being said, I did ride 3 waves and they were great.

Great time and learned a lot watching some fantastic riders.

Dave,

It was all GOOD!  You just forced me to fade a little bit more into the pit... made for a better turn anyway...

Yes, Mach 1 is buckled and in for repair... but Corran's explanation of a knee to the board doesn't wash... as I think my knee would be hurting just a bit.  When you tell your shaper to make your board as light as possible... without a stringer... it might buckle at a place like almost "secret spot" ... Like I have said before, SUP is my midlife crisis sport... so if I buckle the occasional board, "Make me another please."

Thanks for the kind words Dave... (and thanks for letting that wave go by!) ... there really were some skills on display out there.

I think that with the level of riding, and the level of respect shown to the locals... a positive perception of standup in this little section of the world was displayed on Sunday.

So Ralphie wakes up at 330, loads the car, drives two hours, and delivers six boards down the stairs and onto the beach for (mostly) total strangers... AND snaps a few pics of the fun in between sessions.

THEN because he hangs a little longer with his HB local brother Victor (cool cat that I have surfed with up in HB)... He has no one to help him back up the stairs with all of his boards... Cuz we are all having coffee.

Ralphie, much like Ferris Bueller, is a righteous dude!

Thanks brother.

Can this thread please come to a halt.  I'm already bummed that I didn't make it, now I see that it's already to 4 pages of zoner content.  Geez.  you snooze you loose...I guess.  I was preparing to leave on my camping trip at san elijo sb so wasn't able to make it.  Set up another one and I will be there (assuming I didn't break my hand this morning with Big Ed.  Took a fin to the arm and hand...not feeling so good).

Ed- did you and Boludo surf there today? Looks better than the usual spot. AK and I had a good laugh over your floatie pic. May have to look there later this week.
