The girls are gone and it's just da boyz. The power went out early this morning and Chucho and I waited for the sun to come out and we headed down. Things started off poorly as I slid and fell down a short but steep grassy hill. I got up laughing and after a quick surreptitious check I confirmed no one saw.
I wasn't excited about the session as Chucho, when left alone, freaks out and barks. It's happened at the grocery store in Rivas. I found a tree trunk to which to tie him. When I first paddled out, he was fine. About ten minutes later, he started barking.
My first wave was a left. I bottom-turned a little too sharply (given the twin fin/small center fin) and that scrubbed some speed off my attempt at a top turn. Once I got there I tapped the lazy wave and had no shot at coming back down.
I caught a right and immediately went into cutback mode. Unfortunately I lost it in the wash.
My last wave was my best wave. I did a nice cutty but once I reset I couldn't get anything going off the through.
Chucho's barks became more labored and shrill so I caught the next closeout in. He languidly wagged his tail and was ready to walk back. He is now passed out next to me sleeping off his separation trauma.
