I didn't want too but.....
..........Kosuke called me and put the thought there!!!
Got a phone call from him at 1000 yesterday just as I was leaving work
"What are you doing?" (Translation-Do you want to go surfing?)
"Ummm" was the response as I wasnt any where near home yet and before I could say anything else............ "Its 2-3 ft kinda offshore and its really cleanned up.....High tide is about 3......."
Well what more could I say?
Drove home to the up beat sounds of George FM (98.6) and yes I was a little "AMPED" at the thought of getting "WET"
Threw my gear in and picked up Kosuke.
The drive 40 minute drive to Piha basically consisted of how long its been since we have been out and how we were both getting older and carrying injures.
Arrived at South Piha and it LOOKED REAL FUN there were the two distinct Left and Right out the back and a really fun Left reform right out in front of us.
So 1350 arrival 1400 in the water and by 5 past I had my first wave under my belt.......gotta be happy with that.
Didn't last that long as it was so cold but heaps of fun and the crew were out there were having a good time too.
When Kosuke got out I got the complete run down (AGAIN) of how comfortable and warm Kosuke was with his new "Fur lined" wetsuit from Japan and I really should look at getting one too.
Cant wait for summer....

Yeeeaaaah right....whatever...!
It has to be your first priority to get a “state-of-art” wetsuits to spoil your old and worn out body.
Just don’t ask me how to convince your boss. I might be able to act as a baddie, so that you can come to surf, however teaching you this secret technique is going way over the line…
master
