Afternoon session with Eric

First session with Eric since summer. Waves were fun, crowded at torrance so we hit up rat. Finally got a long ride with my fish. Session was good but the winter wind took it's toll on my hands.

is their any waves in summer?
next year i might come down to visit an aunt and it will be perfect for a surf trip. but because its completly flat in wales i'm having second thoughts in surfing the summer cause theirs an avarge of 3ft swell. which could get us a knee hight wave over here. is it still surfable of will it be best to go earlier?

re: rankings
Totally agree, as indicated, the rankings are kinda whack...

comment by Anonymous, 2007-01-24 09:03:36
