Wow! Westward

With the MagicLieWeed giving 4 stars we grabbed a couple of hours sleep and set off in the dark to arrive beachside for breakfast at high tide. A massive effort was required to clear the whitewater, except for Simo who  powered through an easy section (see below picture)! 

With Josh out on his new aircraft carrier and Fin ripping up the beach, it was 'help yourself' time outback. With steady overhead sets and the occasional one and a half set, the boys pushed hard through the offshore wind to takeoff and land some great rides. The prize for noisiest rider went to Simo, who whooped his way through the morning. Jerry favoured lefts, Luke rights and Josh just charged for the beach. By concensus: Our best day at The Ho! all year. 

In the afternoon, we plugged in on site and then dropped down to the rock reef breaks West of Abbotsham. A small hard-core of guys were waiting for the incoming tide before dancing between the boulders on a long left break. 

We slept like logs despite a gale blowing all night. After a leisurely full English, we caught the tail of the Remembrance Day service at Bideford before heading back. A really great weekend.
