Surf's up!



Oeh, that excitement of going to a session! Today is a code yellow in Zeeland the Netherlands, not that we care. I want to dedicate this post to the excitement of going to the water. Whether it’s a surf or skim session the excitement is the same.

This morning my alarm went off at 8 o’clock on my well-deserved free Saturday. I have to admit that the sound of an alarm; ‘wake up bitch surfs on’ is way better than ‘wake up, work to do.’ So at the pleasant sound of my alarm I rushed to my longboard and cruised down the road to check the waves at the beach.
As I saw the waves standing on the boulevard, I knew that it was going to be heavy. Called up the friends and put on the wetsuits. Now this is the point where the excitement and stoke really kicks in. Waiting for the last one to get dressed is terrible, especially if you are the one. Then we have to walk from the car to the beach. Normally I prefer walking slower than snails, but at this very moment we always walk like if we are in a race walking competition. To get a better picture about how we walk, I looked up a useful ‘How To’: https://youtu.be/b6wzejsmuvQ.
Then the next part is arriving at the beach. This is where we have to get to the best spot to enter the water, this usually goes running. Then the warming up, wait, we never do this because we are already in the water until our arms are sore.

Well, this gives you a better view on how my day looks like when we go surfing. The rush for a surf session after work is even greater.
At this moment we are waiting until the tide comes in again, so we can go for the next session in the evening, wish me luck!
