Sidmouth dawn raid

Once again the swell, tides and wind were all spot on again this morning for Ewart and I to have a pre-work dawn surfing mission at Sidmouth. It was bitterly cold, and when we first arrived we were bitterly disappointed, there didn't appear to be a wave worth surfing at all. So we wandered along the beach taking taking photos. Then Mitch arrived and started complaining that we weren't in the water. We were trying to point out that there weren't any waves worth riding, when we realised that in the 20 minuets that we'd been wandering along the beach the swell had picked, and it was time to get in the water.
We were not disappointed, perfectly formed, super clean, small waves were rolling in and the sun was starting to shine. What more could we want (apart from the morning off work!) I had great fun on the shops Demo Atlantic Ski, it's just such fun to paddle and surf, and Ewart realised that he'd made the right choice buying a longboard. Mitch even proved himself to be a demon camera man snapping some good pictures and video.

It wasn't big, but it was worth getting up for
