"Do you know where to sit while waiting for waves? And do you know how to find your way to that primo takeoff spot? Understanding the subtle art of lineup positioning is critical to good surfing..."
Littoral? I had to look that one up. I made me feel better when it wasn't in my small dictionary and I had to go to the big one. I almost always use one object and line it up with one in back and judge how far out I am by how high up that object lines up. Since I'm blind it needs to be big too. People tell me they line up on a pole at Waimea that I can't even see.
nice read Neal. Do you write these articles for work or fun? Seems like you always have some good readings coming out.
You would never see me in that lineup picture of pipe, that crowd is about as thick as the kelp beds here in california. I would be the biggest buoy in the lineup on days like that....amazing people aren't going to the hospital every day.
