A few of our favourite things
Three of our favourite things: Future Primitive 12, Makaha 12-9, Baron 12
Replacement fin for the FP 13 in Hawaii
The new Black Patu fin was picked up by NZ Post Express courier at 1:06 PM today, a fateful moment in the history of surfing.
We celebrated by going surfing at Clyde St, the second session on the new 12-9 Makaha. The Makaha and I rode about ten waves all the way to the beach, I noticed when paddling out after each ride that I couldn't remember the ride right after it happened. . . . this is a definite sign that it was going well, as it is evidence that the instinctive Lizard mind is ruling. We like that, but it doesn't make technical report fodder.

12-9 Makaha ride report
We were expecting the cyclone swell to have come in, but were too early so the waves at Clyde st were marginal. . . . . waist high and weak to the point that the few surfers out were not really getting any rides at all. In spite of this, armed with the new 12-9 I was able to catch at least 20 waves, most of which gave a long ride to the beach. The board catches waves like a dream and is utra smooth to ride, I caught every wave I paddled for except one.
The swell should be a lot bigger on Monday so we look forward to riding the board in some more powerful waves.
