Same same but different

I came across this amazing surf photo today and it was a great reminder of how varied a sport can be. Surfing, skiing, climbing – they all share the idea that you can participate at so many different levels that the high end vs. the low end doesn’t even resemble the same sport. That’s what I love about outdoor sport – even though all of us fit somewhere into a vast line of experience and expertise – we are all doing the same thing. All of us are after that moment of freedom where it feels like we can fly. Forget about pre-conceived notions of expectation and remember the pure joy of doing what we love to do. Although, I’m not sure how much Flea is enjoying the end of this ride at Wiamea…
