| 263604 | 10035 | Surf Mats... What's the Deal? | 95 | nedsurf | Oct 24, 2022 | 2022-10-24T15:03:04-0400 | longboardkook said: Have scored some fun mat surfing lately. Newport Beach early Oct, the surfmat meet up in Ocean Beach (San Diego) the other week, river mat surfing a now "green faced" wave in Salida, Colorado last week.. So wish I could do it all: live at the beach; live near the river waves; and live up in the mountains (snowboarding/snowkating/powsurfing)... View attachment 50464 Newport Beach, CA on a small fun morning. View attachment 50465 Duck walking (I never bodyboarded before so these fins are hard for me to beach navigate). Scored a real nice set of Yucca ultra soft flex fins that work so well barefooted. I have a set of XXL Yucca ultra soft fins I use in the river over 7mm booties for the cold water. View attachment 50466 Was such a cool surfmat meetup. Worth my flight and room points used!!! View attachment 50468 Surfline shots of the surfmat meetup. Matsurfers on the black ball-near side of the jetty. View attachment 50469 All matsurfers in this pic!!! At one time I counted like 30+ mat surfers in the line-up sharing the joy of riding bags of air for fun. View attachment 50473 Salida, Colorado "Scout Wave"- this river wave is so fun now it has been renovated to a glassy green wave. View attachment 50471 Hahaha, me w/ my Avs beanie (Stanley Cup Champs!)... Actually wore this hat while mat surfing Ocean Beach. Click to expand... Did you run into James (Matitude) at Salida? Yesterday we talked about his Colorado trip last week, he had a blast. I may be back in Co in Nov but probably won't bring my gear, water will be too cold for my 3/2. I faced that same location quandry in my 35 years in Co but finally moved back to California when my wife refused to drive Boulder Canyon anymore in the winter. I realized about 1:00pm that day that I had spaced the mat meet at OB, was depressed the rest of the day. |
