Tourmaline this am...


Back to some nice wave action in PB-Tourmaline- still variable onshore winds made reading wave breaks difficult this morning along with the changing tide. Still got a few rides in- not crowded at all- peaceful satisfying surf session.

La Jolla Shores surf pics on Saturday...Yikes!

Check out Ashley- she is an awesome surfer and a great musician.
Plus she gives lessons- I had a nice email conversation with her- nice!!

Also look up her website- all about her board shaping with Bing Surfboards.

Thanks for the email Kate!
That's cool that you got a Gary Linden board. He's a friend of mine, who I haven't seen in a few years. Always liked Gary, and respect his shaping.
Congratulations on beginning to surf. I teach surfing, and it isn't unusual for me to teach a 40+ newbie. All you need is the bug and appreciation of surfing, and everything else falls into place.Would be stoked to be linked to you site.
much love and light,
ashley

La Jolla Shore fun......


Seals in the water next to all of us out there surfing, very cool spot- little choppy!

La Jolla Shores- good beginner spot but beware some big stuff!



Close to Scripps Pier...nice spot lots of variety- women- kids and good place to pick up some white water and learn to stand up!

storm system produces big waves....



Big Stuff at Sunset Cliffs- OB
