44 of 100 in 18 - Surfing days - witness the fitness and the dolphins

I paddled in the wrong part of the bank , wave was far heavier that I expected and swell direction not kind. still I made the paddle and felt strong so all the additional paddling paying off. There was Jono and 200+ dolphins for company at backline. It has been sometime since I have seen a pod go past of that size, being that playful and swimming that close.
