Little bit closed out.<\/p>\n<p>Fun (and slightly ridiculous) evening session. Carl took the big ole epoxy house longboard out leashless for a little bit of mayhem. The one place I did not want to be: behind that boat of a board. The once place I ended up right as a set was coming. Ohhh man. I sprinted waaay of to the side. Nothing happened, but so many years of Linda Mar cleanup sets flashed before my eyes&#8230;boards everywhere. Yiiii. A big challenge for me on a shorter board is sitting on the inside after seeing that kind of carnage over and over. Yiiiiii.<\/p>\n<p>After my moment of spaziness, I got a very nice left. Grabbed the rail and did a little hand drag for extra style points. I love staying low on this board. It&#8217;s great for grab rail takeoffs on these little waves. Fun fun.<\/p>\n<p>One thing I&#8217;m having trouble with is that I&#8217;m missing waves. Beamer and Carl pointed out that I&#8217;m taking off like I&#8217;m on a longboard. I paddle, then I straighten out my arms and lean back and look around (anti-purl technique?) I need to be keeping my weight over my shoulders and pushing down\/in to the wave. I&#8217;ll get it, I&#8217;m sure. <\/p>\n<p>After surf, had delicious chile relleno. Yum. Love the food here. Luis and Alicia are amazing.<\/p>\n<p>Lots of sea turtles out tonight and Venus shining like crazy.<br \/>\nVenus is soooo bright in the evenings. Then again, Mexico is pretty dark.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.traceythompson.com\/surfing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/2012-MX-05-03pm2.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2139\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.traceythompson.com\/surfing\/2012\/05\/thursday-evening\/2012-mx-05-03pm2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.traceythompson.com\/surfing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/2012-MX-05-03pm2.jpg?fit=3264%2C2448&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"3264,2448\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.4&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 4S&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1336075349&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.28&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;800&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.066666666666667&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"2012-MX-05-03pm2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.traceythompson.com\/surfing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/2012-MX-05-03pm2.jpg?fit=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.traceythompson.com\/surfing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/2012-MX-05-03pm2.jpg?fit=525%2C394&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.traceythompson.com\/surfing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/2012-MX-05-03pm2.jpg?resize=525%2C394\" alt=\"\" title=\"2012-MX-05-03pm2\" width=\"525\" height=\"394\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2139\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.traceythompson.com\/surfing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/2012-MX-05-03pm2.jpg?w=3264&amp;ssl=1 3264w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.traceythompson.com\/surfing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/2012-MX-05-03pm2.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.traceythompson.com\/surfing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/2012-MX-05-03pm2.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.traceythompson.com\/surfing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/2012-MX-05-03pm2.jpg?w=1575 1575w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Surf: Waist &#8211; Chest high.
