I haven't really done a whole lot of wave riding in the past few years, due to covid and sailing trips taking priority over beach trips. So I avoided the big board (a foamy) and choose a hard bodyboard instead. 

Good thing, as the break here is a lot different than in Maryland.  It's nice to actually be at a spot where there's a decent outside break. Couple of decent rides and one very good one, but didn't get a barrel...waves were big enough (estimated 3-5 feet in the larger sets) but skills were insufficient.  Also, I forgot how hard it is to duck dive a short board due to the buyancy, so getting outside was a struggle initially.
