And these girls know exactly how to surf these waves. \u00a0I keep telling them how these days will make them stronger paddlers, gain more wave knowledge, and make them mentally stronger. \u00a0I teach them to surf anything and appreciate everything. \u00a0To me, that’s what surfing is all about…<\/p>\n

The hike back up never gets easy. \u00a0Half way there, I’m exhausted.<\/p>\n

I look back and the girls are smiling the whole way. \u00a0The adrenaline still pumping. \u00a0 So stoked that they love the challenge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
