hey, i might go again this weekend...since my wife is still with her folks. two weekends in a row! i was trying to go a few times incognito since i'm a noob. i wanted to make sure i knew what i was doing first. i don't want to be the guy on the board that everyone complains about not knowing what he's doing!
i'm still getting the occasional birds nest or tangle with the guy next to me. i'm pretty conscious about etiquette and i always feel bad if i get tangled up. though most of the reason is because...i'm still a noob...and i either don't have enough weight on or i'm not dropping it down fast enough or something!
i got tangled with this old Korean guy next to me 2-3 times on Sat. i'm not Korean, but my wife is...and i now when someone's cursing at you in Korean.
I felt bad, but i really didn't think it was all my fault. but then again, i'm the noob. so anyways, i moved over to the other side of the boat, because my fault or not, we were getting tangled. though, i spent half the day on the other side, i never got tangled on that side...and there was definitely more current later in the morning, so more potential for tangles.
at least i'm not getting tangled with someone 5-6 spots down from me. boy, the first time i went...man, did i feel bad that day.
