Ghosting-16h

Paddling endurance has always been my weak point in surfing (I´m convinced now that I lack some specific muscles) and after perceived 5 paddle kilometres and very little reward of surfed waves I quit and left for Klitmøller. The reef over there would have some waves too but equally exposed to the wind, so I parked with view on the bay and eat something while having at least a nice view. According to magicseaweed the swell would rise a little bit late in the day, but I didn´t expect anything to break within the bay.

But then suddenly a beautiful peak appeared out of nothing, and a mellow but good sized and clean wave broke in the middle of the bay, creating a smooth and long running left. Then nothing again. But that one two-wave set was enough to make three surfers paddle out into the void. They sat for some time until another two-wave set appeared. One of the surfers had the sort of ride I had come up for, but after that wave it went flat again.
