Just got back from a little surf trip in Half Moon Bay, CA with Evan Lloyd.

The main bowl at Mavs wasn't working, so we surfed Mushroom Rock.  I'm working on the footage and will have a video up soon on my videos page...but here's a pic:

My dead Gopro...

There are two doors for the Gopro camera.  One for the water and one for everything else.  The door for everything else has openings in the back, allowing for audio.  Do not use this in the ocean.  Sea water has salt in it and will kill your camera.  

I was giving a surf lesson Monday and decided to mount the Gopro.  I had the wrong door on it - the one with the openings.  It got swamped and died.

The manufacturer advised me to put the camera in a bowl of rice.  That didn't help. 

So...I won't be posting videos for a while.
