Believe it or not, but I spent my first two years in California without going to surf even once. So on a sunny weekend, we drove to Santa Cruz with Thomas and Julien, rented three boards and jumped into the ocean. It was not a windy day, so everyone was just sitting on his board, waiting for an hypothetical wave. It was kind of disappointing. Well, I guess that this is just one of those "american social sports". You know, like baseball where most of the time nothing happens anyway on the field and spectators just talk together and enjoy their hot-dog.
