MORE INFO

Tai Chi  / Surfing
Tai chi offers surfers an unsurpassed mind/body link. Tai chi’s emphasis on a meditative mindset, awareness of and connection to the physical environment, a keen sense of the role of energy at play in the world, development of the muscular core, flexibility, and longevity all dovetail precisely with the qualities a surfer wants in order to have a competitive edge and maximize his or her time in the water by getting more and better waves. 
 
Tai chi offers the surfer both a powerful preparatory practice to use before getting into the water, and a perfect wind-down that helps ameliorate the long-term, negative effects of surfing on the muscles and spine. Practicing tai chi means more energy, faster and more complete recovery, and, perhaps most importantly, a deeper and more enjoyable surfing experience.

Thursday

Made a little trip up to Ft Pierce this morning for some knee high longboard slides. The waves might not of been all the good but at least the Roxy Pro was happening. There were some dudes surfing but the girls were catching all the waves. ;)

Tuesday

Ankle to knee high leftovers this morning in South Florida. I probably could of managed a few slides but my dog was having more fun than I would’ve.

Looks to stay flat for the rest of the week.

Monday

Still some knee to waist high waves coming in around north Broward this morning. A little funky but there are some fun ones to be had. Pretty sure this is the last day for a little while, so get it if you can.

Sunday

Knee to occasional waist high SE wind chop. Awesome beach day and there are some waves to be had.

Looks to go flat for the rest of the week so you might as well get what you can today.

Saturday

Flat and cloudy this morning in South Florida. Looks like we might get a break from the rain tomorrow with a little wave. The winds are forecast to be 15 knots out of the SE. Looks to go flat for a while after that.
