I went and bloody well did it!
So yes I still have to post up about my amazing surf trip in Morocco but more importantly, I finally committed to buying a longboard on ebay last night. Admittedly it’s not the Empire one I had my heart set on but that had been sold by the time I got back so I searched … Read more
Moroccoccocccooocco
Wowzer, what a place. What great surf, great chicas and great fun times. Talk about escaping the winter blues, I was in a parallel universe! As soon as we arrived at Taghazout Villa we were suited up, given boards and driven out to Panorama Point for our first surf of the holidays. This session didn’t … Read more
Surf Maroc here I come
On Saturday me and my buddy Farrah will be heading to the Roxy girls surf camp in Morocco. It’s a canny expensive affair but since getting a full time job I thought I deserved it. Warm water surfing with a villa right on the beach and a brilliant, fun pal to hang out with is … Read more
The Emporers new suit
I finally got one! And I finally got in! Santa did bring me a lovely new West winter wetsuit (courtesy of my darling sister). Bright blue and thick, just how I like my bread slicing. There had been some good swell on the run up to christmas but I wasn’t allowed my pressy early so … Read more
Oh dear me. She is a dancer?
Sofia Mulanovich was my last hope of believing that you could become an amazing pro female surfer and not get sucked into the sick sponsorship gimmicks. RED BULL? Oh my word, who in their right mind even drinks that nasty stuff? Never mind agreeing to promote it by flouncing around on a bed instead of … Read more
Backwash is the BEST
Fun times were had yesterday afternoon. In the dying remnants of the recent swell, I went back in for what I thought would be a mellow little ride. There were only a few people out and Lizzy and Tom were on their way in. As the tide pushed in everyone gathered close to the right … Read more
A lucky surfer girls bedroom and shower
Ooh er! Sorry nothing saucy in this post, just more boring surf related ramblings. I have strategically moved my bedroom furniture round so that my bed now looks out directly onto the surf. As soon as I wake up on a morning I can just pull the curtain back and see if there are any … Read more
The Rothko of surfboards
I was chatting to a fellow learner surf buddy the other day and he was telling me about a long board he had hired for the day in Scarborough. He had a brilliant fun time on the board so sent me the link to the shaper. I HAVE FALLEN IN LOVE! Yes with a surfboard. … Read more
Late evenings and early mornings
After the drought we got some sweet September waves in Saltburn. All the big guns had been out battling against mega white water but I knew my pitiful paddling would get me nowhere so stayed out of the sea. It was worth the wait because Tuesday evening was a special session. About 10 people out … Read more
