so saturday, i was working rootfire setting up, giving out beer, dancing, and
just enjoying such a beautiful sunny and cool florida day.

but, while setting up, someone came to me and said, 'oh, that guy, he surfs
all the time and said yesterday [friday] was double over head.'

and i don't drop the whole, 'i've been surfing 20 years' line but i did.

friday was not double over head.
inside the cape.
unless you are a grom.

i don't care what surf school you run... it wasn't

That's ok, had a dude tell me there were 10ft faces out there... After I spent all morning surfing that spot and was back for round 2. Just classic over stoke from going so long with crappy waves.

I'd say that wave, and a whole lot of waves I surfed on Friday at da light were 2' feet overhead!

What's your call on the wave pictured above?

i'm sure that i'm a lil taller than her
so head high+ to maybe 2ft overhead at most
but not double overhead

i mean, c'mon.... think about that for just a sec
we only get that double overhead tick on some
occasions but not this past week/weekend

but me being.... out of commission... if i were to
surf, that wave pictured above would be a LOT
overhead since i have to belly ride in.
