O'Neill Cold Water Classic

Last Saturday was Jam Packed. One off the fun things we did was ride our beach cruisers to the light house on West Cliff to watch the annual O'Neill surf constest. This is like the Surf Super Bowl for Santa Cruz. The entire town comes down to hang out on cliffs and route their favorites on. This year a young local boy, Nat Young won the event. It is the first time in history that some one with braces took first.

Surf and Turf

Silvia has been blogging about all the things she has been doing so I thought I would post a few videos of what I have been up to when I have some free time. If there is swell in the water and the tides are right, you can find me in the water usually surfing the east side of Santa Cruz. Since I'm goofy footed, I like to go left (frontside) on waves. Unfortunately, Santa Cruz is the land of Right point breaks. There are very few lefts and the lefts that are here are very fickle. My favorite spot to go when the tide is right is wind and sea. Here is a clip of me dropping into a little nugget.



When there isn't any swell in the water I usually go to the skate park and mess around. Here are two clips of me at the Ben Lomond skate park. We are lucky here in Santa Cruz County. There are three killer parks all within 10 minutes of my house.

Beach Volleyball No Attitude Tournament 2008 !!!

This past Saturday my beach volleyball partner Thira and I had our first tournament in Santa Cruz. It was awesome !!! The weather was great, sunny and not too windy. We had our family cheering us on. We played very well, making it all the way to the co-ed finals. We made a few too many mistakes in the final game, but thats ok. The most important thing is that we had a lot of fun. It was a great day !!!

Here it's a little video that my cute husband Justin made of us playing at the beach.
