boogie skim, thats always fun when its flat
i usually work. i work for myself and plan a lot of my jobs around the surf when i look at the forecast. hang out with my fiance. i was riding the dirtbike a lot, but i can't get into it much in the winter as well as having to travel quite a ways to a pit i can ride at. the only good thing about a flat spell is i can work whenever, and don't have to worry about planning my days through the swell forecast. i will work 12 or 14 hours one day if i gotta, and then have a whole day to surf the next day. like tomorrow i got 12 to 14 hours of work to do. might finish the last 3 wednesday morning though, and hit the surf the rest of the day.
I skate and Keep in shape for when there is surf. I also do ding repairs and try to work some OT at work to get some Comp time so I can take off when theres is surf;)
Watch surf/bodyboard movies, read same type mags, online mags, pics, studying maps online. Basically keep bodyboarding in my mind at all times and keep reminding myself that waves are on the way. Basically try to stay stoked and pumped up for waves. Like tomorrow! And I'll be off work the next 2 days WHoo! :D
Wintertime is definitely a mind**** for staying focused. Drinking/smoking (Im assuming you mean da green) can be a quick escape, but NEVER ever let it cut into your surfing. never go out the day before you know there is gonna be waves. Always wait until after a swell, then celebrate! :D
I play Wii with my kids too. The sports games can really give you a workout LOL
MW2 has taken over my life!
