After a long week of what seemed like nonstop wind, rain, and moodiness from the coast, we arrived to the beach STOKED Saturday morning to not a single cloud in the sky.
It was a great morning with plenty of waves.
We partnered with a local non profit Surfers Unite Rotarian Fellowship to put on a learn-to-surf event for their members. Even with some extra wave size on the outside, there was plenty of whitewater to get some new surfers on their first wave!

We often meet people who buy surfboards without any understanding on what their shape will do. They often say they picked the board because it simply "looks cool" and come to find out the hard way that it does not ride the way they expected. Beyond the basics of general board shape, each shape has certain characteristics that makes those boards behave in the specific way that they do.
