Wake up go for a surf
Push kiddies in the white water and watch them get up
Back to the chack for a barbie with my mates
Sea breeze is in, huge 4 hours down winder with decent swell
another barbie to heal tired body
Marshmallows on open fire
score a root
Can you beat this?????
I probably score the above at least 10 times a year and it is etching a constant smirk on my face.
What's your perfect day?
yeah thats pretty close to mine too, except I swap the surf in the morning for some down hill mtb(man thats so addictive, I just can't get enough)
That is a good day indeed. Particularaly if you can get a leg over at the end.
Its called a 50 session.The saying goes on you death bed when you old and wrinkly you will only remember 50 days of your past. They are the best and worst days of your life. The time you had kids, your first root. the time you totalled your parents car etc. and your best epic session.
If you will remember it for the rest of your life it is indeed worthy and ultimately is the goal.
Every year I go to the Moosemeet. drive 50km up a beach and camp in the sand dunes for 5 days. No cell phone coverage, no technology. Just sand and wind and kiting buddies. Wake up, kite, eat, kite, talk some shiit with kite buddies, kite some more, eat kite, talk smack, night kite. Repeat for 5 days.
It is a glorious occasion.
all that and.....
get drunk, fall into bed , get a 10 minute heddy, a ten second fart and laugh yerself to sleep.
Hey Plummet, you rock! I see why everyone is a bit jealous of you kiwi's....
And you'd probably throw a hungi in there too!!!
i tried to get a legup last night and got told NO , yet my 10 week old gets a boob whenever she cries . What about poor dad ?
Yeh man I hear ya. Give it time, they come back after a while.
Remind me of the joke, there are three kinds of sex, unmarried wild sex, the honeymoon deeper more intimate love sex,
Then after kids...
As you are walking past each other at 2am in the morning with a child each you say
"Fck you".
Something like that anyhow. Kids suck em dry man, literally, give her time. You now come third, behind the kids, and the dog.
Every day above ground is a great day , catching a two metre swell for a surf early morning at Sunshine beach main break ,then a down winder from sunshine to column in 20+, a few beers and barbque with freinds while washing up and packing the gear away , even better
...up real early for a climb at my favourite crag ( Boomer in Pinjara ) home when the flies get to much. Brunch and wait for wind. Down to woodies for a few hours. Home for the best curry in W.A. (hers) and the best nan bread from the wood fired oven (mine) with family and friends. Bed shattered... as for the rest you have got to be joking after all that!!!!
went down the beach, elle mcpherson was there watching me kite, asked for a lesson , however when i put my harness around her waist it didnt fit, bloody straps were stuck so i had to use my teeth, then the missus elbowed me and told me it was time to get up for work
Mine would be:
Early surf, then Paraglide till the wind is too strong then kite flat slicks, BBQ to top it off, then spa!
after just getting over 8 months out with a buggered shoulder, for me it would be getting out on the SUP on a perfect glassy morning, actually being able to use the damn paddle the way it is meant to be used for the first time, catching a double head bomb and skating down the face of a wave faster than i ever have before. bouncing like a kangaroo totally out of control, but somehow making the bottom turn... then eating **** on the top turn.
i'm sure it wasn't pretty but it felt fkn good after that long out.... topped off with a nice leisurely sail on a mates yacht in the afternoon, few beers on deck and crashing out, good day over. well that was sunday and it was alright
