Lazy Days

So I pretty much went from ski camp to windsurf camp. I have been in the water everyday windsurfing with the best windsurfer in the world teaching me how to water start. I feel like learning to water start would be like not understanding how to get on the chair. Its the only way you are going to get up and then get back down. It is so crazy how much fun you can have doing something new, even when it makes you cry and pisses you off, that feeling of getting up on the water and plaining along at high speeds over the beautiful ocean is hard to beat. Most of my coaches will understand where Im at right now with learning how to water start. Its been hard but good, I really enjoy the focus in windsurfing, very body aware and each slight movement with my hands. Skiing is so natural that you forget about what the little things do. Windsurfing I only think about the little things and its something I focus so hard on. More than I have in anything else lately and I like that its not skiing. Very good for the mind.

Maui has been great, as always. I have been super tired though. After the fist ski camp and a difficult one you can see how hard your body works. I have really enjoyed just laying around and playing in the water for a few days. I got to explore another island which was cool I love to explore, anything new is exciting for me. I only have a few more days here before I need to head to higher ground to get ready for the next camp, Chile!!!!!!!!!!
