I was a big wave surer in my younger years. I thought I had a good skill

California and Hawaii. I have to say the thrill of a double overhead wave
is incomparable.

I have been soaring since the 80's and consider myself only a middling
pilot. I can't surf to my satisfaction anymore but I hope to continue
soaring for may years to come.



Fly wave, you get to combine both.
On rare days with windspeed decreasing with alt (and the *right* amount
of humidity) and a stable lapse rate . . . and a few other things . .
You'll get to "Surf" 2+ mile high waves.
'Tis pretty good (and a lot less knackering than the wet stuff with Sharks
