Yesterday was the first time I ever surfed Swanpool beach. It was uber offshore and the crowd factor was redic. There were no rules any more. People were dropping in on one another left and right.
While I was working on my laptop I looked at the window. Thought the texture in the curtains would make a cool shot with some backlight.
We left the house pretty early and checked Swanpool. It looked rank so we checked Gylly and saw this mini right but weren’t too keen.
We went to Jan’s afterwards. Had another opportunity to shoot another window. Sick shade of blue.
Jan’s girlfriend picked up some coasters with wicked illustrations on them.
It really looks like the house of art students.
It rained.
We went back to Swanpool to sesh it. It looked awesome for a Falmouth break.
We left because of the crowds. Here’s a splashing shot.
Here’s a Gylly Reef left.
We booked tickets for 2012 which was an awesome movie. Since we had 2 hours to kill we went for a skate at the Maritime parking lot.

I set the camera to a 10 second exposure, set it on top of my board and pushed it down the lot. The world is a scary place for a skateboard

Today we went hunting for some surf. It ended up settling for Praa. Ryan and I went in. Joe and Emma had a lovely day at the beach while Ben did a bit of photography.

Rinsey looked alright but Ben wasn’t keen of the crowd factor.
Ryan had a million stickers in a box so Ben and I snagged a few.

Draw. I bought to see if these Zebra pens to see if they were better than or the same quality as Asda pens. They suck.
Hear. These are the third JVC Gummy headphones I’ve owned. They come in awesome colours and once they break, they’re fairly cheap to replace.
Keep Warm. All three of those hoodies were freebies. P.S. I love my smoothskin.

Ben, Joe and I went to Perranporth today. It looked alright from the cliffs and it actually was alright. Joe and I were barely getting waves because of the odd way the wave broke. Right when it seemed like it was going to throw over, the wave would just flatten out. By the end of the seshuan we were having some decent rides.
Swell lines.

I’ve been incredibly lucku with this thing for all my Cornish seshes on it. I’ve only lost it once where it went all the way to the beach, and that was right before we were about to leave. All the other times, either the wind blew it towards the line up or it drifted into my friends’ hands or when I did lose it, I was able to grab it before the next set came.

Keith and I seshed Godrevy this morning.
The waves weren’t as good as yesterday but it was still fun. If any of the Godrevy regulars: You know what happened to the last guy that dropped in on me?
Quick Tip: If you apply a vinyl sticker to your board, do wait the 48 hours before you hit the water.

Blue tack is fun stuff.
It would have been way to hard to get this guy getting pitted.

I changed the layout of my room a few days ago. News Flash: Rob is back on my door.
Legit.
This poster freaks the beans out of my housemates and me every time.
