Thursday Fun

Thursday, January 10th, found some empty lefts by the pier…

It was another splendid beach day. Happy surfers abounded:

Alex was his usual

Amy & Jill—the 'Mother's Kitchen Surf Team'
Bill L. switches stance
James looks right
Amy slashes
Cathy gets snaked
Dano glides…
Eric grabs a pier left
Gary picks off a set right…
then, goes for speed
Gina picks off a sweet left
Mark squeezes a noseride
Mark & Paul clear for Kim…
as Kim slots in
They don't call him 'Happy Hans' for nothin'!
TWO happy surfers: Jen and Hans
Mike L. gets a perfect right
Paul O. off the peak
Paul R. walks on water
Randy snags another pier left
Robbie slashes
Tom C. smacks the lip
Troy perches
Stand-up action
Even shortboards were here
and there…
Ahhh…California!
