Many years while on my annual N. Shore trip(s)...a surfer lost his board @ Jockos and another Ozzie came to his rescue they both got swept out to sea, they could not make it back in on one board, night time came they were still missing, Coast Guard finally located them late that night...everyone thought they were dead.

Also remember Kirk passing a few days before I arrived on a trip many years ago..entire N. Shore was in shock, went to Banzia Sushi to pay respect to the memorial they had for him.

at 26 you are fearless...things can and do go wrong for many expeirenced surfers, do not have kids and stay single as bad as that sounds cause you never know...
Pratice in FL is only paddle, paddle, paddle and swimming laps underwater, and go out on the days that are 12'@9 secs to practice geting out through 20 walls of whitewater..not much else you can do. Ever been denied in FL? if not you have not gone out on a great practice day we rarely see.
I honestly would have no shame or issue with wearing a vest and a helmet, especially when starting off. I remember reading about Kirk's death a while back and that was one hell of a way to go. Edited: 01/24/2018 at 08:39 AM by Julianuribe23 |
