Evolution (96MBs) Aug 2004 - Dec 2009 - A 'from then to now' retrospective of paddling the Dan River created for the 2nd Annual Smith Fest Film Festival in Martinsville, VA.
Atlantic Beach, North

August 20-22, 2010
After the amazing surf next to Oceana Pier last year, I was really excited about taking the kayak back to the same spot this season. Unfortunately, I found no waves breaking at the outer sand bar on day one and could only find a few small ones to surf near shore. Day two was even more disappointing, as you can tell by the photos above. I've been on lakes with more action. I kept my boat on the beach all day hoping that something would kick up, but there was nothing, absolutely nothing happening out there. After two days of lefts, the third day brought rights and a few finally started building further out, breaking on the sand bar. I quickly grabbed the Fun and tried to squeeze in a few rides before we left. It wasn't really anything like last year's fun, but there were still enough moments to make me want to try it again next summer.
