Snow Reports for the iPhone

Abstract

Surfing has been a passion of mine since my first successful ride. It’s one of the rare things in life where I can forget everything else and just enjoy the moment. I skipped my ten-year high school reunion because it landed on the weekend of a surf trip. I spend almost half the year going on four-day surf trips every other week. My accomplice on these trips is a longtime friend who got me into the sport. Since we go so often, we like to keep it simple, and cheap. It’s a three-hour drive to the coast, at which point we set up at a state-run campground for $20 a night. We each have a tent, small bag for clothes, our boards, and a cooler. These may sound like the bare essentials, but it’s still a lot to put into the back of an SUV, so we’re always looking for ways to lighten the load.
