Great crowd session

This morning I had my best summer crowd session ever.

What a day, after what has seemed like endless rain: blue sky, sunshine, hot, offshore wind.

2 foot waves, and I had fun despite the fact that there were probably 50 people in the water. In fact, I was one of the few people actually catching waves and riding, and when I realized that, my confidence just grew.

Generally I hate summer weekend sessions because of the crowded lineup. But today, I was over at the second peak as usual (the first reserved for experts, locals, or both) and surrounded by weekend and beginner surfers who didn't know what they were doing. So I didn't worry about people taking my waves, because they didn't know how; I just went for as many waves as I could.

And I was up and riding, as long as possible anyway on the small closeout waves. It felt good to be the star surfer. It also felt good to be out surrounded by female surfers and I felt like calling out "Girl Wave!" as we all went on the same one. (We actually didn't, but the girls were definitely the best surfers out today.)
