chocolate fish tantra.

5'10" chocolate fish 'tantra' by eric christenson. short fat simmons shape. a little more modern rails. light glass. and rad quad set up.

brief romance with this guy. scooped it up at icons of surf for my stay in california. sold it before i left. surf was small so the board was perfect. lighter and narrower than i am accustomed to on this shape. at first i felt like i had to work for it a little to much but once i got the hang of it i loved the liveliness and responsiveness of the lighter thinner, smaller board. tons of fun.

cool quads.

california 2012

once again work beckoned me to southern california. like last year i decided to stay and do a bit of vacationing after fulfilling my obligations with work. with minimal planning, this years trip turned out to be a blast. had awesome accomodations in san clemente with the most hospitable family. surfed trestles every morning and cardiff one afternoon. drooled over beautiful boutique surfboards at the icons of surf and hobie shops. and ate delicious food and drank makers mark every day. suffice it to say i feel vacationed. already looking forward to next year.
