I thought of you today, my daughter is living at Gulf Place and she is right on 30-A with a direct view of Ed Walline park.

She called when she got home today from Seaside and said, Mom, Surf's Up.

I laughed and said, bet BobbyJ is there. :D

I surfed in Destin from 1-3 and from then on I was actually at Ed Walline. High tide was kind of messing with the swell but it was head high and a good time. Thanks for thinking of me. :D

I just got my 13 year old a surfboard (thanks to "that one guy"). Should I throw him out there on Wednesday?

Nope, never surfed but he does skateboard and skim board with exceptional skill.

Does he have a wetsuit and does he swim well?

He swims very well. I am scrambling to find him a wetsuit right now.

Wednesday might be big. Please don't throw him out there. Let Bobby J or me know if he wants to go and we can assist. I pulled a newbie out of the water last year and I can tell you it was not fun for me and even less fun for him...

I will post where we will be Weds. Maybe he could come down and get a feel for it. If it is too big, he could watch. It gets kinda freaky out there if you are new on a big day. From the beach it looks like no big deal but when you are laying on your belly and the wave is about to bust on your head you would be amazed at the power of these gulf coast waves. This is why I have a standing appointment with my Chiropractor! I look forward to meeting your son and helping him out.

Thanks guys, we would love to come down there and check it out. Just let me know when and where.
He has been sick for two days but must be feeling better because he just grabbed his board and gave me those sad, "can I go to the beach" eyes. I might let him go goof on it today (he skates goofy, btw).

It looks like the wind came out of the north to early last night...:bang:
Killed it. A little swell but more like a longboard wave! Bummer!
