Any Surfers Out There?

Just wondering if there are any surfers on the site. Did a search and nothing came up. I have been at it for about three years now and it has really gone along well with my routines.

I used to surf when I lived near Santa Cruz. I found that I surfed better and just moved better in the water in general when I was lighter and not really lifting a lot of weight though. I don’t know, I just felt a lot slower and less agile at 195-200 as opposed to 180lbs.

I’ve found that mt biking has translated much better for me. I feel like the high speed downhill shit has really improved my grip strength and that hill climbing in moderation(which I avoid whenever possible; I usually try to go with another person in two vehicles so we can drive to the top of a sick run and have another vehicle at the bottom) helps with my leg strength without taking too much weight off from overdoing the cardio.

I’ve been riding skateboards since I was a kid, and especially longboard skateboards for the past 5 years.
I’ve only surfed twice (in '05 and '06), and really loved it. Time and circumstances don’t allow it though.

However, I can just grab my longboard skateboard and hit the street anytime I have a break from work or whatever.

EDIT: By the way, OP… where the hell do you surf in England? The English Channel!
lol

Yes.
