Anxious
Uneasy anticipation. Gonna surf Bowls this morning. According to HWS, it was good yesterday (3-4 ft. plus) and today looks the same.
I'm really nervous. This isn't my territory at all, and if it's clean and barreling...it's all you, baby. In other words, when the waves are high quality, and the venue allows superb spectator viewing, you're under a lot of scrutiny, and there's no faking it. The pressure is on.
Last year, I arrived late. I barely had time to get my jersey and paddle out. In 15 minutes I was eliminated--done, finished--and sent home. I need to do better this time.
