El Guapo comes through

Bay Street -  Friday, 11/20/2009

I surfed El Guapo (an 8' 7S Superfish) and got a good number of rides. Certainly my best day on it. I popped up pretty easily and was staying up as well. Maybe my time on the Speed Shape last weekend helped me appreciate the extra float.

Pretty good day. A little walled, but corners were available. Really tired by the end of the session, don't know why.

Shawn in particular had some good rides. Fess probably had similar rides, but we are usually on the same 'surf frequency', we paddle for the same waves. If he catches it, I turn around and look for the next wave and miss his ride. If I catch it, I'm not in a good position to see his ride when I paddle back out.

At least, that's the theory.
