My Surf Sin

Recognizing that you have sinned, and consequently working to correct your mistake is what is important.  Sins happen everywhere. Anywhere. All the time. At work, at home, at dinner, in the car, on vacation, etc. etc. If you are […]

I’M BACK

I surfed 5 days last week, and I’m fucking ecstatic about it. I’m on track for another 5 days this week. I haven’t been this stoked on surfing since I quit the baseball team to join the surf class during my sophomore year.  I recently had a bit of a hiatus from surfing. A 113 […]

What’s the Difference Between Me and You?

I got to go snowboarding last week. I wouldn’t call this a rare occasion, but it only happens about once a year if I am lucky. I really cherish these trips to the mountain though; I mean I seriously enjoy every minute of it. Snowboarding, in my opinion, has a lot of parallels to surfing. […]

Missing Out

3 Day Lot Rule

I was recently exposed to a bitter suggestion from a local around my parts that I would like to share with you. Actually, it was at least a year ago, possibly longer, and at the time I definitely just laughed off the proposition. He’s quite the talker – almost any time I run into him […]
