“Cold water all year round though...” For sure. I have surfed at Pacifica many times. The water is freezing, the waves can be full of seaweed, the breaks are fast and the locals are super friendly. It is boring to watch a dog surf, since it is like watching a box strapped onto a board get carried by a wave. More fun to watch kids surf, since they are full of terror and courage. As they say, “You only go surfing in Pacifica when you have to.”
I agree dogs on boards are boring unless you’re the one surfing with them. They are so happy out there and after the session, that evening they sleep well with happy doggie on a hot foam board surf dreams:>)
