Surf Camp

The girls of surf camp...Jen Law, Kim Messmer, me, Melissa McLoota, Kristie, and Alex.

Wow...surf camp was unreal! The travel day there and back was an adventure like no other! But, once at surf camp things were pretty "hang ten!" Every morning we would head out to the beach for a surf lesson with one of the local instructors. After being pummeled by the waves for about an hour we would hang on the beach and watch the pros surf. They were amazing! The afternoons were spent running on the beach or doing yoga, and then back to the beach to watch the pros at high tide...even more amazing! It was like being a bunny slope skier watching Chris Anthony ski some untracked chute in Alaska. The evenings were fun, festive, and full of the local culture. The best thing about the whole trip...surfing! I loved it and can't wait to catch my next wave.

While surfing there were tons of photographers taking pictures and videos. I felt like a movie star being photographed by the paparazzi. This video is of an ultra slow wave that I rode...pretty funny that I was even on it. But, it's the best clip I have...all the others include wipe outs.
