Very rarely do my sunnies come off my head but got rolled by a good one 3 days ago and while fending off the slack bar and lines from getting me I knocked my sunnies off my head, last I saw of them was rolling around in white water as my kite was making its way to the water. Bye bye I thought.
What makes this a tiny teeny win is they turned up again, I found 'em. Whats cool is I lost them roughly 2 km up the beach upwind from launching spot at a creek mouth in 1/2 to head high rough as surf with 7m tides inbetween, 3 days later. Its been raining cats and dogs so creek is flowing fast, swirly dirty fresh water and the current can be very strong indeed.
Wonder what the odds are ?????
Anyway, nice to get them back, and hooray to little wins, anyone else have a little luck story like that?

Had a bit of luck last Sun when I went with the family to the local markets & spotted a TT lying under some old surfboards, so I bought it & took it for a run yesterday - it goes as good as any other board I've had in the past, bindings are really comfy.
It's a Blackboard 133x40, got it for $85.00
I snuck in a surf yesterday afternoon while the missus took our young one to a play session. and she didn't pick up on the sandy feet and salty hair!
was blowing its tits off too!

I guarantee my left nut she did.

Years ago we were surfing big epic Pascuales in Mexico and one dude lost his watch in a mega wipeout. It was a present from his mum and he was pretty sad about it. He walked up and down that beach for several days on the chance (ya really right?) that it would wash up. I mean bodies don't wash up there, they get found out at sea eventually. Place is heavy.
Three days later my wife was wading in the shallows and low and behold, there it is. She knows who that watch belonged to. VERY lucky. He bought us a nice dinner that night followed by many beers. Sometimes you just never know how lucky you can get.
Years later we ran into him, he was a dj in Santa Barbara California and the dude bought us dinner again. Needless to say, the watch meant something to him as he still had it. He never surfed with it again in Mexico though.
i once found a half sucked lollipop behind the lounge, quick brush off and gave it to my brother 
Let a little silent bugger off in a lift with lots of people once, unintentionally and a young fella in the lift got the blame.

watched as a windsurfer caught a sand bank going about 70kh... ouch!
You sure it was a windsurfer. I didn't think they could go that fast.

got a smile off a windsurfer
sorry this was a lie
I got a smile off a windsurfer a few times after they once again did not obey the starboard tack rule and nearly took me out with their heavy clunky contraption.

it was blowing 30kn and he was way overpowered, my estimate was 70km his board was skipping off the surface until his fin hit the muddy bottom

7m tides, that's intense!!!
... you bet, and lots of fun too ,,,,, you can get a lunch time session where the water is about 2km away and flat, flicky flicky paridise,,,, by arvo its so high you run out of beach with head high dumping waves,,,, can be intense and waaaay fun. Always funny to see the new players rig too close to the waters edge and get swamped having to re rig!!!!!
