Great summer


 Constantine Bay Reef (Mika 03/09/10 )
Well the summer is officially over for us in terms of school holidays. Its been a blast, whilst the surf could have been better, this past week has seen the best swell of the year with sun and a decent 4-6ft swell at Constantine. Although it was a tad of a paddle out for my dodgy shoulder!

Highlights of the summer for me have been the fact that I have spent so much time at the beach and the fact that my son has developed(finally) his fathers desire to grow gills and has simply learnt to surf instantly.  First wave and he was on his feet, the rest was easy.  I have now turned into a taxi for him with every evening a trip to Harlyn to get some surf he has been as keen as mustard to get in.  Mind you I dont think that I had two surfboards of my own for my 9th birthday or anyone to teach me to surf.  I certainly didnt have the talent to get up on my first wave. Been great all round and now just need to get through the winter to the next one. Got some great pics too!
