The eastern part of White Plains Beach
Other surfers out on the breaks:
Thanks to Dave for the following pictures. I'll give you the play by play of one wave that we caught on film. Topher waxing the board (the board is slippery when wet so the wax keeps your body on while paddling out and your feet on while surfing).
Paddling out...
Up and over the waves I go:
Two people surfing past me as I keep paddling out (I'm on the left of the two surfers)...
I see the wave I want; I start paddling to try to catch it...
On the wave (ok so you don't really want to be there, but I got back down)...
On my knees...
Starting to stand...
Ah ha...Surfing!
And now I'm realizing I picked the wrong wave...It died out after 20 or 30m,
and I'm starting to sink. On to other waves!
That's all I got for now. I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend. Thanks for reading!
Way to go Kris.
