Finally back on the water at Patterson River for a quick 5k then back home to some Anzac Biscuits, YUM!
good paddling Dave ...this was yesterday ,i was the last out of the water ,but the picture speaks for it self ,only 4 foot but lots of fun .
Got in a morning session at F Break. Big bombs but fat with a nice get out channel on the right. . Only two close outs on the head today . The cross chop and wind was a pain thou. Windsurfing tomorrow
5 weeks of self imposed isolation was taking its toll on my now, 72 year old body, so, back on board!
Our beaches were never closed to surf or paddle, I simply did what I felt was right.
My body thanks me for getting back at it.... as you can see, no distancing issues here
Same coordinates as yesterday.
Did about 50 metres in and out of a 20 knot northerly.
Good to just get wet though.
My regular Smik ride is having some treatment whilst my girl is home, keeping her busy.
The southerly normally knocks our local flat but the hound needed a walk, so I thought I'd take a board to the point to see what I could see. But which board. Over on another wall gathering dust was a board I've never had the heart to sell. My 8'0" minion. Hmmmmm.....I wonder. The beach was pretty much closing out all the way along, but the point was peeling. I sat out wide as the sand in the middle was making it stand up and close out on most as they took off. I took off after that point, and had an absolute ball for about 2 hours.
I'd forgotten how much fun this little skateboard was, left me frothin' and grinning like a cheshire cat.
Thanks. I thought it was narrower for some reason. Yes much faster and more fun too stay on the board.
