Sun, Surf, Beer and a Barbeque

Spring feels like it may have sprug and the North Coast is starting to fill up again. Saturday Afternoon on the beach.

Lumpy, bumpy and a little bit onshore but it didn't seem to matter much to Jamie.

Who shot J.R.? (I did, albeit out of focus...)
Saturday also marked the first BBQ of the year
Sunset in the Village

Saturday night's aprés surf entertainment, Cahalog O'Hare (Go on, do your ears and favour and give it a listen!)

Sunday dawned clean, bright and offshore.

The no so lost art of the drop-in

Steve got behind the lens for a bit too yesterday. Yours truly getting shut down in typical beachie fashion

It was Owen's first time out in a while and head over heels to be back in the water.

And as the sun set on the surf...

The lights came up for Two Door Cinema Club.

Sunday dawned bright but small and messy

Yours truly. Hooded, booted and steering the longstick through some mush.

Stoked to have a shot of getting 5 on the nose (Cheers Rick!)

Check out Surfing Ireland for some real shots of Saturdays action. Andy managed to get a few crackers!

Moving...

Been some surprisingly good waves and weather over the weekend
and some stunning sunsets with the odd glassy wall at the local.

Moved back up to the North Coast late last week to start my PhD. Lack of internet access has meant I haven't been updating as regularly as I usually do but its damn good being back. 4 sessions in 4 days has totalled a mighty 8 miles of driving, compared to the minimum of a 60 mile return journey per session when I was living in Derry. The local hasn't exactly been firing but at same time I haven't been finding it anywhere near as fustrating as I did a couple of weeks ago!
