Surf: 1-3ft and inconsistent. Warm water, warm sun.
\nGear: My usual Stewart and a 6’3 twin-keel retro fish.<\/p>\n

Work was slow and the sun was out so I headed up to Bolinas to meet a few friends. It was small! Teeny tiny little waves rolling in, but man was that sun wonderful. <\/p>\n

I caught lots of mellow rides on my longboard, knee paddled around. We all got ride after ride, me on the stewart and Tom and Bonnie on their fish. After a while Tom and I switched boards. There’s a good 3ft difference between our boards, plus his fish is about a third as thick so we joked how I prob wouldn’t even be able to sit on the little thing. I kept trying to line up with the snarling tiger face on the front. Rar! Rar, I sunk the nose. Rar too far back and stalled. <\/p>\n

But I did sit on it, and I paddled on it, and I caught a wave, and I stood up!
\nIt was a squirrelly ride, I was all over the place, but I was up! First shortboard ride standing.<\/p>\n

I’m pretty proud.<\/p>\n

On the drive back through Mt Tam I crossed paths with this coyote, out enjoying the sun a little too.
