Rad reading: how surf ettiquette can save your life
Need to brush up on your board riding manners? Then learn by heart the top ten rules of surf etiquette, written by Me-Shell Mijangos of SwellWomen surf camps, currently on Girls Learn To Ride. Her nuggets of polite wisdom are just as precious inland as in the sea. Here's her top five for a taster:-
Rule 1. No Dropping In.
“Dropping in” in on another surfer is one of the worst surfing crimes you can commit. Dropping in is where there is a surfer on a wave already and you hop up on the wave in front of her. If there is a surfer on a wave already, the wave is hers, unless she falls off her surfboard or pulls out of the wave.This surf etiquette rule reminds us that in life we should respect and honor other people’s choices in their life’s purpose. As long as others are safe and not harming others, we should not get in front of them and take their dream (waves). Allow each person to choose her life’s path and enjoy her ride. Everyone deserves the passage of a smooth journey to arrive at his or her dream destination.

Joy Monahan lived up to her name on Wednesday when she took first place at the ASP Women's World Longboard championships at the Roxy Jam in Biarritz, France.
The second winner of the week from Oahu, Hawaii (fellow Hawaiian Carissa Moore won the Roxy Pro Juniors - see post), the 22 year old defeated runner-up Chelsea Williams of Australia's Gold Coast in a nail biting thirty minute final at the La Cote des Basques, with a 14.10 heat tally (out of a possible 20).
