Big Dog Surfing:
Kayak-surfing on North Carolina beaches is absolutely exhilirating;
you can do this pretty much 10 months of the year. For beginners,
a rash guard and boardshorts will save some skin buffing on
the wet sand until you learn to stay ontop of the water. Learn
to like the taste of salt-water through your nostrils too.
Wiping out in surf is actually quite fun; just know when to
snap the strap loose from your ankle.
Surf Dog Oland has been kayaking along the coast for years;
he competed professionally in the beach-kayaking divisions.
He can be seen regularly cutting through the sets
and performing 360's through the waves. Give kudos
to the surfers - most are fairly skillful on their boards and
are fun to watch. There is a required talent to maintaining
your balance riding in on a wave. Give it a try this summer - you'll have alot of fun!
