We Have Surf!

I was as shocked as you when I heard the new yesterday. Well, maybe not. The wind’s changed direction and churned up some nice little wind chop for us to ride. I took my little brother Mike out for his first time on a surfboard. The hardest part about the first day of surfing is just paddling and sitting on the board. You really can’t do much more than that, and even that’s a challenge. He did pretty good, almost paddling into one wave and getting plowed under by another. In the end he drank too much salt water and wasn’t feeling very good.

I caught a handful of nice little lefts here and there amidst my tips and pointers lesson. Hopefully we’ll have something left for today but I’m not sure Mike’s gonna be up for going back out.

    I'm a seasoned 33 year old web designer originally from Cincinnati (born in Wilmington) and now living in West Palm Beach. I specialize in high-end PHP and CSS sites as well as fully functional Wordpress and E-commerce sites for various clients.

    Even though I'm from Ohio I'm a die hard South Florida Surfer and beach guy. I picked up the sport over five years ago and never looked back. Any chance I get I'm in the water, which is sometimes rare considering that South Florida is fairly inconsistent with surf. Those days we do get are always a great gift.
