what can you do...when it is flat
I am really confused because the winter season has been really shitty with at best some waist high wave wind chop or chest high closeout...with the summer approaching at full force, I am looking at alternative to get my muscles ready for some hurricane swell.
Well that is the only thing I found which I heard is really good but at this cost I could survive "second thoughts" style for few months except I don't really want to swim in the polio pond.
Vasa ergometer swim bench is close to $1800 so it may not be for everybody because while it increases your strength, it doesn't help you at dodging the recession

cord wrapping around leg
I finally went surfing last weekend with some mates from Best Kiteboarding, we still had to drive to Melbourne to get some stomach high waves...yep that's Florida:(
Anyway I hate wearing a leash for the simple reason that it is annoying, gets around the feet,etc... So here is an gadget from XM : the Tangle Free, a double swivel leash that helps avoid this problem.
There is a slider (small weight) that moves on the cord, it pulls the cord down which decrease the chances to step on it.

Wetsuit Vs. Sand
About a year ago, my wife Leslie bought me a Cinch Sac. At first I thought I would be using it once or twice but after a while it soon became the best surf accessory that I had gotten in a while.
What I used to do was to remove my wetsuit on the sand but then I would bring home 2lbs of sand. I would then wash my wetsuit in the shower, which is a good way to have an argument with your loved one when she goes into the shower and see that you have modified women's heaven into a dirty beach spot.
And then even after cleaning the wetsuit you will always have some sand left in the wetsuit, which is quite irritating while surfing.
The idea is great but I found the design a bit too rudimentary for me because when I used this stuff to go to Black's beach and have to walk for ever: a wet wetsuit is quite heavy and there are no good handle ,except this cheap rope that friction on the shoulder or on the wrist.
In addition I would have liked to get a couple of pockets into this bag for keys, waxcomb and maybe a FCS key as well.
