Lakey’s Lines: Taking Team USA into final day
Tuesday, January 26, 2010 By
Hi from New Zealand!! Wow, we are down to the final day tomorrow!!! Today the waves had dropped to 3-5 feet. The direction of the wind kept shifting around and being that the beach is long and large, there are alot of different places to take off and surf. You really have to watch what the tide is doing according to where the wave will break, very tricky!!!I surfed today in one heat for the girls 18 and under. I'm still alive for one more day! I got second in my heat to a New Zealand girl … [Read more...]
