Although on the first day of surf (after my sun got light up in small dots of sun rash) I felt like considering to do what Sayeed was saying in moving down on board sizes slowly towards my board's size, on the second day I had a totally new mentality. Although It's a hard to learn how to surf on mine, since it's only 6"8, I put myself out there. I felt like although it's gonna be tough, I can do it. And in the end, it'll be worth it.

So for two thirds of the day I tried to proceed in learning my board, but at the end of the day, when Chris wasn't surfing anymoreo n his board, I took his longboard for a ride... And it was soooo much fun. Riding a 9"8 log is sooo easy and getting up is effortless. Paddling too with a log is so much better cause the biger and wider your board, the less you have to paddle. The only downside is the speed the board goes and turns: it felt like someone was hitting the slow motion button, after geting used to the lighting fast -motion of my board. I did though get hit on the back of my head so I called quits and decided to just munch on the alluz that I had bought from the Almond-Nutman.

Afterwards we went to The Slab see the pros who, unfortunately, had done with surfing for the day.
