Description:

Playa Norte shorebreak bodyboard session with my friend. Saw dolphins earlier in the day. Got some really good waves in the shorebeak, but ate some sand and got pinned down against the sand a couple times by breaking waves. In close it was easy to catch the smaller waves, but the sets wrecked you. Out farther you could only get the sets, but we were having problems catching some of them. Finally got my weight on the front of the board a little more and my elbow in the board better. Then started catching some good waves.

Scraped my lower back some on the sand as I was being pinned under a breaking wave. Not a bit deal though, no blood. Beautiful sunset. We stayed in the water until 7:20pm or so just until the end of twilight.
