I caught my first tube today... Sir

Finally we get a surf after more than a month of swell-less, booked up or hungover weekends! Last Saturday we collect the whole crew of Zombie, Sergio, Dub, Joeleee and myself plus a few honourary members; Dre, Tarecq and Merla. Torquay is pumping with consistant 3-5ft swell and after an intial false-start/attempted-drowning of Andreas we split into a few white water warriors and the rest out the back. Apart from a window of very full tide in the early arvo there are heaps of waves on offer so it is hard to keep track of everyone. I gather from all the smiles, thumbs up and tired arms that we all have a generally good day with a special mention to Tarecq for catching the biggest frothing mutha on his first time out! My own first two waves were my best ever (!) but after that it was all downhill culminating in wipe-out of the day which no doubt left my head slightly more asymmetric than before. No time for tasty burgers as I have to drop a to-remain-nameless surfer back in time for the opera. Great way to say to get reacquainted with Dave(TBWG) and looking positive for more of the same this weekend!
