Spoke 2 soon ... lunch break was chunky barrels then after work wind offshore and pumped for 45 minutes at secret street CB. Yep, super fun. I surfed for two hours in some glassy, chest plus peaks. ------------------------- I was right. |

yeah probably hands down the surfer
Even in bad conditions I remember the spots going off... Oh well, probably just a bad combo of things while I was there.

I was struggling with a rental board in CR and complained to a really good surfer who said, "sometimes it's not the arrow, it's the Indian" . I laughed but changed boards later that day. He saw me get a set wave, laughed and said "nice arrow".
I used to be the guy who had to have "his board" when traveling but what an expensive pain in the ass. Rentals have opened my eyes to shapes I wouldn't have possibly considered. Don't give them your Passport as security. Give them your credit card. Take a before picture AND bring your own leash. Some guy broke my board with his head and he took no ownership. The surf shop tried to hit me up for $650.00 I gave them $200 and the CC company successfully disputed the rest. Also, this puts money into the locals pockets and not the Airlines. ------------------------- Need more water time. Plenty of time left to make $$ |

^uhhh.. cute story and all but 2-3 weeks a year traveling if ur lucky and successful to crap shoot on potentially heavy surf on a rental experiment???? Been there , done that. NOT Worth it! Spend time finding shop , selecting , yada yada. If it works for u more props but most of us feel slighted on good surf on a shortie that's not the glass slipper. Now LB go for it- I thought we were talking about surfing ;-p

"sometimes it's not the arrow, it's the Indian"
I can make it work, but that's counter productive when you are spending thousands to get dream waves. ------------------------- I was right. |
