Sand rolling hurts. Try to stay in the surf. Thats why its called surfing. 2. Saying naughty words just before doing an endo wont change a thing. It makes for a cool story later though. 3.Waving at your wife from atop a wave of any size makes bracing difficult if not impossible. 4. When bearing down full speed on another kayaker do the polite thing and roll under before impact. 5. Helmets are your friend. 6. Eyeglass straps are your friend. 7. Your friends are your friends. Bring them along when you surf bars. All that weird, tumultuous, fun water is caused by sand ( at least here in Georgia). Sand isnt kind. See point 1. 8.Go over, come up, smile and repeat. I will be surfing in five days. I cant wait...
