I nearly Drowned Surfing in Ireland.....

.....but it wasn't the ocean that nearly did this - it was the amount of Guiness we drank!!! Forgot to mention the other day that it was also a stag do we were on so as you can imagine it got a bit messy!!!





Above - Me on a tiddler - the next set that followed was a monster and cleaned us all up, hard to believe looking at this (it is now shown below with me paddling to get out of the way - I didn't make it)




Here are a few of the shots taken by jay on the trip. The swell didn't quite work out the way the forcast predicted it but we found some good waves none the less.

Surf Trip to Easky, County Sligo, Ireland


I have got bloody lucky with a little trip we have planned for this weekend to the Emerald Isle surfing, Golfing and Guiness-ing with seven other north Wales based surfers.


As you can tell from the image is forcast to be pumping, with good size swell, Light offshore winds and the sun is even going to be out. I have probably spoken to soon now!!!!


Keep an eye out on Wednesday as I'll post some of the best pics on here - you might think this is just a mid-week jolly but we like to call it research / board testing!!!
