Coming from the Midwest, I am very inexperienced at surfing...but it is fun. Here is the closest that I have to an actually surfing pic from a couple years ago...and it has P-Car content too...

Gotta love living in SoCal.

Two weeks ago when I was at the beach in Malibu I saw a silver 996 911 roll up with two surfboards strapped to the top of it roll up to a parking spot off PCH. I thought this was entirely bad-ass.

This was taken 2 summers ago on a visit to San Diego. I grew up surfing in OC. Salt Creek (before development), Cottons and Trestles were some of my favorite breaks. I moved to the PNW 20 years ago and surfing is the one thing I miss about So Cal,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
