When Surfing Goes Wrong – SURFERS CRASH

We were greeted by some really fun looking waves at the bottom of the hill this morning for our Monday Morning Surf Club. Gani and Max headed in with our 5’10 Fetch and 5’6 ADPT respectively.

They caught a few short rides in the clean conditions and then tried to catch a wave together…

But it didn’t quite go to plan. Gani dug his nose in as the wave bottomed out on him and Max got stuck in the lip, unable to project along the wave. The wave threw them both forwards and they came together. They both survived completely unscathed….the same could not be said for their surfboards though. The 5’10 had some minor damage to the nose and the 5’6 ended up losing a fin and having a large hole in the underside. We think the glass-on fin of the 5’10 landed directly onto the underside of the 5’6 and punctured it. Even in small, playful surf there can still be some power in the ocean!

I quickly nipped to the workshop to drill a hole in the 5’6 to allow it to drain and dry before heading back down to the beach for some waves. After the shock of an event like that unfolding, and knowing the work needed to repair them it was just what I needed….a few glides along some fun, glassy waves.

SCORING INSANE Waves IN EL SALVADOR (September 10 )

God Bless your life and dreams bro, don’t worry about the future, in you have God Jesus in your heart, He has the a great plan for you.
This was a great week of waves!
It has been a tough week of rain, but it has more or less stopped, and the waves are coming with all their power to the Salvadoran coast, with a period of 16-18 seconds and a good size. The beach is packed, but everyone is living together and enjoying the wonderful September days.
