Comments:
I must have showed up during the set. There were only two guys out which didn't bode well but I saw a guy trunkin it doing a rail grab backside barrell, and I got my stuff. By the time I was out there, both guys were gone, and it was me sitting alone at some beachbreak with no waves to be found. I was standing up in waist high water pushing into little 1-2' hollow waves breaking in knee deep water. It was fun, but funny too. I caught a handfull of rail-grabbing attempts at getting barrelled in barrells that couldn't even fit my feet. The sun was backlighting the lips as they crash down, and that was good to see. It was one of those days I wish I could transmorgify into a 2 foot tall surfer.
