(notice the snow on Orkney [R corner] )

...can't take my eyes off it!

Winter surf

above: Heaving
It hurt my head, 6'c water 0'c air temp!!! Welcome to Scotland in winter. Snow on the hills, getting out of the way of incoming waves after catching one, was about survival. The puddles were frozen on the dirt trail to the spot. I rode my "Point egg" out there, as it seems to go really well here, up to 6 feet.

My point egg unraveled. my 1st scanned board. [original shape copied by lazer and recreated via a sweet shaping machine]. KKL. The new shapes are better than the original one. It's a "Liddle" egg - tuned with fish properties. A speed demon, works in all conditions. Puts the fun back in surfing.
painted Bordeaux, shape.
