What stoketh thee...

This forum is for SURF topics such as localism and rants that are usually negative in nature. If you're a baby, complainer, or generally think you're right and everyone else is wrong this is the place for you. PLEASE NOTE, all forum rules still apply, but just a little more liberally enforced. Registration is required.

Being homeless on the coast living out of my van with my girl for no particular amount of time with no job to have to show up for, and no schedule to keep... Just surfing and chilling.

Not exactly. I've succesfully deconstructed the stoke and got a couple things going on that are stoking me in Stumptown right now. Besides I lived the dream for a loooong time and have had so many good waves in my life already. I've truly been spolied surfwise.

That and after my recent surf trip deep into the coast, I was actually stoked to be back in the city. Outside of the surf and the nature, the general vibe over there is just kinda fuked really.

And I am not exactley laid up dammit : ) Actually rode in today.

But yah I'd probably be beaitng myself up agian in a month or so. I'll get back, but for now I am where I am. My daughter stokes me more than anything anyway.

my day...
wake up at 5am
surf warm water, coffee shop, home by 10am
freshwater pond kayak, then swimming, then jumping off the dock with nephews followed by fresh corn on the cob for lunch,
some reading in the sun and shade by the water, a 2-3 hour nap,
smoking some weed before dinner next.
sunshine all day and 80 degrees
life is tough

WC- As opposed to my day of searching through cars to find hidden moangoes and weed to seize. It gets depressing seeing all the boards go by strapped to roofracks. Wish I had time for a surfcation.

Not surfing, business. JUneau, Sitka, Ketchikan.

On a side note, just saw Mark on Good Morning America. That guy get's around.

Unexpected raises on a Tuesday morning. Ahhhhhhh snap!!
Boardriding is about timing and style...It’s youthful, active, casual, and free flowing. There is no wrong way to ride a board. The goal is simply to learn, progress, improve, and give it your own interpretation.
