Surfing into 2018!

New Year's Day 2018

We were guiding day 3 of Liquid Fusion Kayaking's Whitewater n Surf Safari.  The goal of this 3 day trip is maximum fun in whitewater kayaks and obtaining the Mendocino Whitewater Trifecta - whitewater river running, rock gardening, and surf kayaking.  Unfortunately we had a beautiful warm and sunny December which meant no water for a whitewater run on the Eel River.  As usual, we make do with what mother nature give us and we had 2 days of really fun rock gardening.  Now on day 3 it was time to find some surf.  The swell forecast was very small and our students were skeptical if we would find any waves.  We found some.

Here are some shots from my first wave of 2018 -

Thanks Jeff for capturing the shots and sharing the stoke! We are going to rock n surf in 2018!
