Trim Lines.

Some day my daughter will accuse me of trying to kill her... and use the video at the end of this as proof.

This was a great day when we stayed out for 2 hours, despite the cold water.  She didn't want to go in, but dinner time was upon us.  The video below doesn't come close to highlighting any of our best waves; we caught in the range of 20-25 total.  Those waves will stick in my memory and I suspect my daughter's, too.  Trimming down the line, beating sections, and going for close to 100 yards at full speed on a 2-3' face.

Stance practice.
She's a regular foot... thank goodness.
We don't accept goofies in my family.

Stoked.
This was our last wave of the day.  As you'll see, it's a close out.  Still, my daughter pulled it with a smile.  My favorite part of this?  Easy: "I did it!"
