Spring Has Sprung

It's almost summer in Aotearoa, land of the long white cloud. Even though we are as far south as Northern California is north, the sea gets fairly warm for three or four months. Here's me on my Fatty just yesterday, having flashbacks of Zuma Beach in August.

Thank you, PG, for the mat that made it possible!

Well, it's not my mat that made it possible, but "a" mat!

Great fun to see this mat riding action. I love the large images on the thumbnail blow ups.

All I can see out my window is 3 feet of snow...and I don't even speak French!!! (Your cue, Georges!)

A "Grade A" mat from one of the great mat masters. Max Dad's photos do a brilliant job of capturing the stoke of trunking it on early summer inshore sandbars. Especially after eight months of Southern Ocean winds and rains straight from Antarctica. Le burrrr! (I hope that doesn't mean something naughty in French.)
