My Surf Profile

Surfing Since:	1992
Stance:	Regular
Boards I surf:	Shortboard / Thruster, Longboard, Fish
Surf Experience:	Experienced (10-19 yrs)
Surf Level:	All Conditions Surfer
Surf Frequency:	Once or twice a month
Local Spots:	Grew up surfing Newport and Huntington. Went to college at Pepperdine and surfed alot of Malibu and Point Dume. Lots of north county points as well!
Favourites Spots:	Way too many spots to list. Zuma, Big & Little Dume, #rd Point, River Jetties, Lowers, San Miguel, Anywhere in Costa Rica!
My Biggest Wave:	Tripple Overhead

Favourite Type of Spot:	Right Pointbreak
Prefered Tricks:	Tube, Cutback
My Best Ever Session:	Midnight moonlight session at Malibu Pier. Light crowd and realing. Connecting all the way from the top and into the pier. The lights of the pier made it like a stadium atmosphere. People were all along the beach. Caught a couple and had to walk back to the point.
Biggest Fear or Wipe out:	In West Oz out at Graceland. Just north of Margarets River. Monster bombs were coming through. At least 15ft faces. Thick with alot of water moving. Was out of shape and in over my head. Got caught inside once and thought I was going to be shark food. Got a couple long hold downs but made it out alive. Lesson learned. Never go out in big surf if you are tired!
