    Great place for me to start. First day on and I guess the reason for coming on is I want to set some goals this year. I have an odd situation. I live in Arizona… yup Arizona. It’s odd, I do have a home in Dana Point that I spend around 3 months out of year at and I surf pretty much everyday. I’ve been surfing now since I bought the place 4 years ago. I lived in Maui for a couple years and surfed a short board back when surfing wasn’t cool. My issue has been progression because of the obvious. Great news is that a pool has opened up by house and it has different levels and yes, I brought out the 10-0 and had some fun. Now that I can more consistently surf, it’s time to progress.

    – I want a smother, more consistent cross step. It’s so choppy due to a lack of water time and probably bad habits. I get on the nose here and there, but it needs work.

    – My backside sucks! I’m like Zoolander and I only go right. Ha! This is just ridiculous and it gonna happen

    – Cutbacks, turning, drop knee, more cutbacks, turn your damn board more!


    Thanks for putting this together. Super stoked!
