levy love

I think Porthleven is my favourite place so far in Cornwall. Shame I can't surf the wave!
Saturday 18th, a six-foot empty peak. Wasn't empty for long, Mickey Smith and co charged it, never ever have I seen such nutters…one standup joined them and got some pits as well. The spongers were taking off behind the peak and getting so so deep. Most of the waves shut down on them (huge beatings, one guy floating in the channel recovering for ages), but the odd one made it, and they were beauties. I have new respect for them.
And what a stunning place, too, reminded me of Wales a bit, always good. Check the SurfGirl mag blog for a pic of the standup getting a wave.
