Liverpool One but this ain't no shopping trip
On sunday Shelly me and Nick and family went for a £5 walk (1.40 for a car) through the Liverpool tunnel to celebrate its 75th year. After 45 minutes of walking though the tunnel behind some really unfit people who couldn't really hack the uphill part of the journey. Nick and me decided to Liverpool one and the Echo Area for some urban biking.
Honestly some of the best mountain biking I have had got super confident by the end and started jumping 10 sets, although nick had to go one further and hit the stairs outside John Lewis
Nick doing his thing!
Mini Surf Break

Shelly SUPing
Quarry Beach, Abersoch. This beach is one of my favourite places to SUP; clean sandy beach and plenty of clear flat water. The sun was shining, making it a perfect session for me!
Sunset at Porth Oer
Sunset at Whistling Sands: Robin had eaten has freshly caught lobster which looked delicious! I, mistakenly in my hunger, ordered lasagne!...The view out of the local pub in Aberdaron showed waves lapping in, so we finished the evening by heading through the winding single track roads to the small beach at Whistling Sands. We were joined by hundreds of funky lil bouncing bugs which just looked like jumping sand! Unfortunately for them they were gobbled up by the possy of starlings which emerged as soon as the sun set.

(Tuesday Morning)
We decided to go during the week to avoid any crowds, but after talking to tim the lifeguard I started to have my doubts, and sure as tim predicted it was packed about 40+ surfers out on a monday morning. i decided to launch straight out the middle and paddle towards the cliffs and soon enough find a peak almost to myself, pretty awesome chest high and no wind lasted about 4 hours. Later on i decided to give it another go and it was going off on the dropping tide over head high and still no wind tired to stay out as long as i could but my arms where like noodles.
Tuesday saw good waist high surf but loads of Jellies, which kinda scare me after last years hospital visit after being stung. Wednesday saw again chest high surf but it was closing out which was pants good thing about a SUP is your can ride a the unbroken wave also gave be plenty of opportunity to try and learn to do some re-entries almost there i guess

Aberdovey Demo Weekend
Wow this has taken 4 days to get motivated to write, but i have my excuses firstly the weekend tired me out and secondly i've been coming o the end of my placement at school and had to get all that paperwork together.
Shelly and me headed down for the weekend and stay in Shelly's crazy tent green flowers a tad embarrassing for myself but shelly loves it!!
Just after arrived stu and i headed out to surf what stu calls crazy wave, everything and nothing head-high to knee high to coming from the right to coming from the left last about an hour out there to return to find a rose tinted shelly. that afternoon we hit beach break around the corner from aberdovey i took my board stu grabbed his and shelly took the camera. the waves weren't great but i had a awesome time my turns are getting better as well as my wipe outs!!
Sunday started with an early start trying for an early SUP in which i found a crap blown out wave so onto breakfast and frozen pancakes!!!
The afternoon shelly max and i went for a SUP along the estuary a awesome way to see the scenery and relax!! well for max that didn't last long he decided to throw himself of the pier with zero coordination and multiple flips.

As it was a windsurf demo i decided to take the fanatic longboard prototype for a blast it rocket up and down-wind and it was nice to have a sail but i just ain't sure it my type of windsurfing i'll rather take a SUP out in light winds.
Awesome weekend lets hope for some wind
