So.. You think this post is about zach... WRONG :)
I rode my first wave in over 3 years yesterday! Zach finally got smart about surfing and decided to ask me to go with him. Of course the waves have to be just perfect for me to go.. Perfectly small! And they were and I was able to spend 2 hours in the waves yesterday. Sadly, I do live within minutes of the beach and this was the first time my body has touched the ocean in probally 2 years! So it took me a few minutes to readapt to waves, current, and generally being in the water. But I find it funny how all your training comes back to you. I was taught the mechanics of surfing my freshman year of college when i joined surf club and once a week they would take you to the ocean and teach you how to surf. Zach I think was a little impressed with my "turtle rolls" and ability to not let the waves bully me around. Although I didn't fully stand up on any of the waves I rode I had a blast! I still don't know how Zach does it everyday my body was so sore when we got home. I look forward to other small surf days when I can go out and attempt to surf some more!
