WSL Sunset Beach Memory

16

Early morning Kyle on the SUP!

This turtle swims by every single morning right through the lineup.

Then another one swam by 30 minutes later.  Pretty cool to see turtles swimming by very calmly.  If you ever see a turtle swimming erratically, that usually means something with big teeth is trying to eat it.

The sets were chest high this morning.  Very low tide in the morning so it made the waves break very fast.  Here is Ronnie trying to get around.

My sister gave me this photo as a present many many years ago.  It’s been hanging on my wall ever since.  It means a lot to me because this was the first WSL contest that the boys surfed in at Sunset Beach.

Joshua and Seth were in the same heat.  Josh in blue, Seth in yellow, and I’m their caddy on the right.  Watching that heat from the water was so cool.  I was so proud of these kids.
