That's what happened today, when I pulled Junior out to the break at Matanzas. I thought the waves would be good for her to practice on; one foot at eleven seconds. What I didn't count on was the incredible current we had to deal with to get out to the sandbar! That was an adventure. Once in the water, after a hike out to the point, I could see she was drifting farther and farther away, so I paddled to her and said, "Grab my leash!"
I suppose it was good practice for Costa Rica. I haven't worked that hard in a long, long time. Once we got out there she was beat, so we rode a few and then booked it back inside. We walked back to the poles, where a little wave was forming near the shore. Turns out that was the best spot today. It looked better there than anything I saw on any of the reports. Despite the workout, it was fun, and I know she will sleep well tonight.
