Shred Betties session at Windells

Windells session 8, we got a Shred Betties session. I waited all summer for this week to ride Windells. First Britt came in and she stayed with me. Later Sabrina showed up from Canada, she also stayed with us. We were told we could not ride Windells till Thursday and it was Monday we had a day to fill. We were going to go camp and surf after I got done work. But that morning we found out we could go Thursday so we only had one day to surf. So I called in work and we sent it to the cost. We went to Cannon Beach to get set up for our surf adventure. We went to Clean Line for our gear they are great to rent surf gear from. After packing the gear up we sent it to Short Sand beach to work on our beginner skills. There is a little similarity's to snowboarding, but reading the waves and catching a wave is nothing like anything I've done before. However I did get to ride one wave which was fun I can't wait to get to work on surfing some more. I have so much respect for surfers. After surfing we retuned the gear and found food. Then we needed to head back to Hood to get ready for the next days of snowboarding. First day it was just the three of us and Riley Shred Bettie's grom. This was a fun worm up day check out the park n get use to the new set up. The next day most of the girls were there it was great to ride with them, sadly short lived. We hit the rails and worked on getting shots. We all had success. I only got one day, because I had to work the next day. However there was one more day with the girls to try tricks and get some shots. I did learn some rail and jump tricks so stoked on that. Later the girls had to leave and I had to work a couple of more days and then head back east to New Hampshire the home land. I do love the times getting be with the Shred Bettie's girls, hopefully we can get together more. Oregon is filled with beautiful scenery, sunsets, water and hikes; I love this place and seem to always end up back there.
