I got to go to high tension for a couple days and it was really awesome. The wave was prime. It is one of my favorite waves now. I had never surfed it before. The first day was with keeners, we got to the wave and it was great, the only thing was that there was a lot of keeners, and we did the buddy system. Because we only had like 45 minutes to an hr to surf i only got 6 rides in. But it was still really fun. My mom offered to drive me back the next day, i met up with jason and we paddled but then we went to see if we could go. It was a little late and my mom was busy, so we didn’t go. But later in the day Justin Fraser came and said he was trying to go the next day. He picked me and jason up in the morning, and we went to the wave. We got to the wave around 2 o’clock, and we surfed till 6 o’clock, it was just the three of us till around 4. Then the swiss people showed, and gerd from spain. It was cool to paddle with them. Me and jason were working on some combos and just going big. We were working on flashback clean blunt combos, fast forwards, bread and butters, flasback airscrews, and some other good stuff. The wave was super green and big so it was great for trying new stuff. Then we headed home super fired up on how the day was. On the way back we debated whether or not to come back the next day. Justin wasn’t going to go back if he couldn’t find a 2010 star to use. He was our driver so it was whether or not we were going to go back at all if he couldn’t find a star to use. We stopped by the A-Frame and talked to LP palmer and he said he wanted to come. Justin used LP’s little brother paul’s boat that day, and he decided to take it again the next day. We picked up jason and LP the next morning. We went to the wave, we arrived at the wave around the same time, 2 o’clock. This time the swiss people and a bunch of other people were there when we arrived. The wave was right about the same. We paddle from 2 to 7:30 this time. Another long awesome day, me and jason were working on the same stuff again, we were getting some too. Justin was working on some airblunts and stuff. When we were taking out my parents and nick and emily arrived. They came for some high tension time as well. It was another great level the next day. We paddled for a while and made a fire, emily was hitting big moves, so was nick and my dad, we had some rodeo rides as well, and just some fun surfing. I lost my paddle once witch wasn’t fun but it was fine. We also got some great photos, it was raining a lot that day but when it wasn’t raining we too photos. We paddled from 10 to 2:30 and it was awesome. It was a great 3 long days of High Tension wave. I got 15 hrs of High Tension in 3 days, i am sore. But it was worth it. I love the new boat. The 2010 star is just so awesome, i love it so much. It was really sweet to get it on a bigger wave, and i wasn’t dissapointed. Well, now we are in Salt Lake City for the Outdoor Retailer Show, and we hope to do well here. We have a good team here to help. Thanks for reading,
