    Yup. I live across the street from Ocean Beach (Kelly's Cove), but I can be found in the water anywhere between here and Santa Cruz.

    These came with my previous bumper. Didn't use them because I got the Relentless brackets instead. You can have them.

    Surfed this morning. My arms feel like jello. Totally rad. 12/10 would recommend. Waves are fun.
