Thanks.

I bounced around Orange County (Corona, Mission Viejo, Aliso Viejo, Laguna Niguel…etc) and finally settled in San Clemente 2 years ago. San Clemente is the only place worth it to me out there. I lived right behind the pier…surfed everyday…it was amazing!

The scene out there is…well. Not exactly what a lot of people think it is. It’s sort of a pain in the ass with emissions laws and cops. If I were in my teens I wouldn’t have cared as much. But you get older and just don’t feel like dealing with that shit. Not to mention the traffic. Not just the major highways…every where. I rarely had times where I could line up with anyone and really get a good run. Except on PCH.
