Mean New Fin

Got a mean new fin...I doubt it will make much difference considering my ability, but it's 'spose to be ideal for down the line and start-up speed while the reduced sweep angle makes for easy tight arc turns. We'll see.

I tried a longboard skateboard in the parking lot (forget about bombin' down Union). I think I might be a little too old for that. Besides, they didn't sell knee pads, elbow pads and helmets which I would definitely need. Maybe next year.

I told Mark that I just got back from Cali and he was telling everyone in the store that I am the most stoked surfer he knows (little does he know, probably the worst). He was telling them that I go to Indo, Hawaii.... I had to correct him about Indo. Got a lot of good info from Mark. Especially on turning where apparently I am too evenly balanced and have to shift my weight to the back foot.

Hope you guys checked out the Lowers Pro. It's pretty cool how they do the webcast.
