Session 1 & 2 - the Hook & OB

So totally copying Nic's format here with the goal of having 50+ surf sessions between now and Bali on September 25th. That should leave plenty of time, especially if I try my best to paddle out daily.

This weekend saw some fun shoulder high swell at the Hook in Santa Cruz. Waddell Creek was actually looking pretty good too, but a bit too heavy for Joanie to surf.

This morning was even more interesting. Looks like there was an algae bloom or something, tons of jellies in the water, and even found a beached baby gray whale on the shore. I'll add a pic later. Gotta run to meetings! 48 more sessions to go, then maybe I'll actually be in decent shape to tackle some Bali reef breaks!
