Steiny...Pumped Up!


hi paul-

i hope you are well. i surfed XXXXXXXXX on my mat this evening and had a great time. i had been riding the mat fairly soft and low pressure my last few go outs but today filled it up as hard as i could with my lungs. i got some really good waves and found myself getting in easier and having an easier time trimming the mat up. interesting. i am pumped to ride it again like this. this week we should have mid afternoon onshore winds and minus tides- perfect!

all my best to you, i hope you are happy and getting some waves,

steiny

ps- two people i passed on my bike on the way to surf yelled "george greenough!" at me!

  3. I too love the bike, especially the Brooks saddle. Takes years to break those in but when they are it's heaven. I was over at Manresa yesterday am with my RT, it was a lot of fun.

  4. "two people i passed on my bike on the way to surf yelled "george greenough!"

    In a nutshell this is the difference between NorCal and SoCal.

  5. Quite a few of the people I've had "mat conversations" with in the water mention GG. This is in NZ.

  7. In SoCal they ask if I'm riding an inflatable dogbed. It a pretty foam and glass crowd. Which I find odd at the "epicenter of the surfing world". Which of course it's not, just the home of several large action sports t shirt dealers.

  9. I nicked this photo (since I liked it so much) and gave surfmatters a plug on our blog. I really like the blog. It is impressive to see how well some of you guys can ride the mats. Nice work. Keep spreading the stoke!
