Surfers

I grew up in the Goleta area and surfed my whole life and in my early twenties moved to Santa Cruz for 3 years. While I was in SC I went to Costa Rica on a surf trip and met my future wife while there. I ended up living in Puerto Viejo for about three years and surfing Salsa Brava. We moved back to Goleta in '95 and I ended up taking a hiatus from surf and in the last three years I am back. I am currently 41 and in the best shape of my life and still manage to surf a least three times a week on average. I ride mostly short boards but I love riding a 9' nose rider and even riding a displacement hull. Below is my current quiver of boards that allows me to surf in Goleta regardless of surf conditions.

Yeah, used to be really into longboarding, and bodyboarding is where I started out and still enjoy. Used to get out about 3 times a week but rarely now.

I eventually stopped going partly as the attitude in the water can be really sucky most of the people are okay but it only takes the one and I'm not the sort of person that detaches from that sort of stuff.
 
I just added some new fins and a hand plane I made (my first) to my quiver so I have no excuse to get out and get wet:)
