Surfing is much more stable than wakeboarding do to the size of the boards and fins, you can also do alot more tricks on a wakeboard. The surfboard that I'm using in the video is a 5'9" quad fin, behind the boat it works great but It's too small for me if I were to surf with it in the ocean.

Here are a few pics from Saturday (surfing with Eli and Stryderphoto aka Scott) and a few from my adventures on Sunday. I have ALWAYS wanted to shoot from the water and get some cool barrel shots, and "Wise Ass" once told me "to get barrel shots you first have to get into the barrel", well I did and this would explain why I am soooooo sore today. Feels like I was beat with a few baseball bats, hit by cay, kicked by a horse an then rolled down a rocky hill. Ahhh, but it's a good pain and ready to do it again! I thought surfing was a work out, but swimming and treading water with no float for a couple hours wiped me out!! Let me know what ya think of the pics. Still have a few really nice full on in the barrel photos, but wanted to save those for last.

Thanks! I'm sure I'll give it a try if the opportunity presents itself. I'm still working on how to say "no" to adventures ;)

It was a ton of fun! They are amazing teachers, very patient and let me go at my own speed.

I'm so impressed with the pictures though. They have some from later that night at the pier and those are breathtaking as well. Hopefully, they post them.

The goal, it looks like you had a good time and that's what matters, enjoy the rides. The taste of salt water, Yuk.
