We had off Fri. so we put the boards on Gerry's back and ro
de our bikes down to the beach. No wet suits and it was col
d. But after the initial mammalian dive reflex sort of shoc
k, we were ok. Lot's of man0wars in the water with us. One
other guy was out bodysurfing. He had one of those little h
and boards. I'd never seen one before in person. It was nea
t but I'm not sure how effective it was. After about 4
5 min. I was frozen.

Went out yesterday with my fri
ends. We were getting killed...them because they were tryin
g to longboard in shortb/boggie waves and me because I
still haven't leashed my new board so I was being overly c
autious and missing plenty of good waves. It was rough. Str
ong current and big dumpers. Go home and put the nasty hole
in my pretty board and realize the plug I have is broken.
That's ok. We're going up to St. Augustine early next month
so will stop at BBHQ and get a new one.
