Wednesday @ South Haven

Before

After

The Elmer T really performed well on these 3-4 foot waves. Waves were smooth and a little on the slow side but it only took a couple of rail-to-rail pumps before I really took off on these waves, laying down some nice groovy lines and the occasional cut back or off the lip.

waves for monday

Heading to Muskegon. Hopefully, the waves are lined up there. One thing is for sure--there are waves =)

that was fast!

Last week it rained. This week it snowed. Now there will be no surfing a HSP for a while.

happy new year!

New Year's Day at Holland was not as cold as I thought it was going to be. And the waves were fun too. Nearly 30 surfers showed up for a photo taken by the GR Press. Happy New Year!

I could surf that

I am working but can't help but wonder what it would be like to surf right...

holland is going to be fun soon

Judging by the looks of those waves on the left it looks like the Hollanders are going to have fun really soon. That kiter must be stoked there isn't anyone to dodge in the lineup.

lake surfing

Yesterday there was supposed to be surf all day, 3-5 feet. The waves came super early but didn't last. Not only did the waves go too soon, so did the water temperature. It was a bit over 70 on Monday. Yesterday it dropped to the 50s. Today Lake Michigan looks like a lake.

surfer girl

Zelda's second day surfing. Jenny captured some Kodak moments for sure. I think she likes it! Zelda told me later that she didn't really surf because she didn't stand up. What do you say to that all you bodyboarders out there? ;-)

end of the week

Southwest winds pushed some leftovers my way at Holland State Park. You could hardly call them waves they were so small. But the water was tropical, nearing 80 degrees. And my foot didn't touch this inland sea till about 8:30pm. The short surf session I had consisted of calve-to-knee-high waves topped by the beautiful sunset shown above. This was a good way to end the week.

says it all

Played in the minuscule swell with Nathan.
