Description:
Surfing was okay. Everything else was kinda cool.
Bought a 6-5-4 suit for winter, but stuck with wearing my 4 for this session with a hood-vest that I purchased.
Here's the lesson learned after trying on multiple wetsuits...never buy a wetsuit that you didn't try on beforehand. Reason why is because different companies run different sizes for different parts of the body. i have a mutant size head and neck, and nothing besides Quiksilver fit around my head.
I saw a real seal appear 10' besides me to check me out. I screamed, then it screamed;then it disappeared. then I started paddling back.

Description:
First of all, Wes was the one who came up with this plan. It was he who saw the full 3 star report for Thursday on Magicseaweed.com.
So, that night at 11:30pm, I packed up the wagon and slept at a highway rest-stop on the border of NH. Woke up at 5:30am on Thursday morning, and drove over to the Wall by 6:15 (first light.)
I ate too much carbs before getting in the water, so I was about to puke paddling out. It took me 2 hours to finish digesting the crap I ate, and then it was surf heaven.
I'm seriously considering getting some boots so that I don't break a toe when the leash gets caught between my toes.
Waves were glass. Single peak 6 footers that were a good 200 yards off the beach. Simply one of the best rides.
