…it’s been several weeks since I made it into the sea. My last visit to the Peniche peninsula was somewhat hampered by cranial mucous infestations so I was relegated to photographer on this obscenely offshore day at Molho Leste.
I miss surfing when I’m landlocked. I miss the connection with the sea. I miss the water on my body. I miss that magical moment when your board sweeps perfectly to the lip of the wave just as it’s pitching over and the power drives up through your legs and body and gets transferred into speed, movement and adrenalin. I even miss that moment when you push a rail too hard, your fins lose their grip and the sea claims another wipeout victory…
I didn’t surf today – but I did think about it when the brain weevils weren’t eating my head too loudly…

You forgot about the hurricane …
Hang on landsurfer, you’ll be back in the water just in time for surf o’clock xxx
I’d rather be Tangosurfing (that might be a bit rude
) xxx
*blushing furiously*
What a fuss. Put your wellies on and go and jump in some puddles.
Yes Mum, right away Mum.
Those brain weevils must be starving …….
Let’s not go down that road. Thicky.
i feel your pain and anguish,its to cold to surf on this pesky island.
Hang in the Gaydy. Indo is calling your name…
after 4 weeks without…i finally landed some myself.
don’t forget to gargle…keeps the gills from drying out.
Good to hear somebody is getting some waves (nice piccy btw – is that by the gorilla head?)
that is in fact in front of the gorilla head. (i opted for a lesser left…as you can see the good right was crowded…at least 30 deep)
yeah thanx for the reminder,java and sumatra for 10 weeks. no more complaints about not surfing decent waves from me untill next week.
unless its on my blog that is…
hi shady when you gonna be in indo dude?

I have been landlocked for far too many years now after being brought up to walk to the beach barefoot.. don’t/can’t surf but can feel your pain…
It’s never too late to learn to surf Ms Teeny…
