Buenas Tardes Dudes y Dudetos,
Costa Rica is sweet as a f***ing nut....or banana is probably more appropriate!! Coffee is damn good 2!! BRETT -Cheers for your message with link....I will definately be looking into that......met some awesome guys already and really starting to get into my stride now!! Still in San Jose, which is a bit of an urban jungle with little to see really but went out on the lash last night in the student area of San Pedro, which was quality.....everyone was searched at doors for arms so i'm guessing it was a pretty safe neighbourhood!!! Atmosphere was fairly chilled though and lots of locals ripping up the dancefloor to 'Ragga Tip' which is a mix between reggae and RNB......obviously would've been rude not to join in with the bopping.....some anoying MC kept on shouting into mike though which got f***ing annoying after a while.....ears are ringing and head is fuzzy today!!
Got chatting to a guy from San Francisco and one from Huntington Beach - place where the shop Republic picture on the back of there t/shirts and every other product associated with 'Sol Cal' and they are gonna hook me up with a few guys in California for December that they know so that i can join the local crew, which is friggin quality of them!! Heading to a spot called 'Mal Pais in Guanacaste' tomoro, where apparently the surf arrived today and is clean and overhead.....gonna die off a bit 2moro so should be perfect for me.....get to test out those new fins to which i am totally thankful for Brett....gonna buy new grip deck and boardshorts though....apparently you can pick up a second/hand shortboard for just over 75 quid.....bargains galore!
Mal Pais is supposed to be a great base with a great hostel 100m from the best breaks with few crowds.....leave 2moro morning and joining my mate from San Fran, who is currently working from his laptop for a games production company....used to work for '2K' who make NFL, NBA, Baseball and other sports games for consoles.....real sound bloke and lucky to work away from home and get paid!! He's lived out here for a year and surfed most places including spots in Panama so a very useful brother in arms.......we'll be armed with or 6'6 and 6'4's for 2moro anyway.....not in the same way as the local San Pedro crew though with thier pistas!!
Anyways, good to hear from you all and keep the messages flowing!! Will get some photos put onto www.offexploring.com./oodles/
at some point over the weekend so you can see if the surf lived upto expectations or not!! Would've taken more photos of San Jose but it's s*** so i couldn't be arsed!!
Take care of yourselves,
Much love - hasta manana!!
