When every I want to finish a session, I'm like. Righto got to lay down the something sweet to finish.

Today was general jumping around in small waves.

So I fang towards the lip. Send it! boost perfectly off the lip. Oh yeah. Good jump, nice height, tweak and grab. Coming in way to hot and downwind for a standard redirect so toeside downloop transition it is. Sweeeeeeet landing and scream into the beach to finish.

Oh yes.

A fine session topped off with a sweet cunning stunt to finish.

Anyway I forgot to pose my question.

Who else has to finish a session on a high note?
What do you like to lay down at the end of a session to finish off?

usually a sundown run offshore to slay another dragon, its always that last one that does you and end up swimming back in darkness

Im still finessing the art of the big jump and tricks. So usually for me that "one more run" to do "one more stunt" is the one where it all goes wrong and I land flat on my back and wind myself.

No, no, No. You can never "say one more stunt"! That is bound to end in pain.

Decide the session needs to end and continue throwing down what ever it is your doing. When you slay the sweet sweet dragon. Ride straight to the beach and finish!

Just to be able to walk up the beach after each session is satisfaction rather than having to be carried off to A & E

I find that pulling off a sweet trick before coming in just increases the adrenaline and you end up heading back out for " just one more run " which if the conditions are good turns into a vicious cycle.

Many times I have thought to myself " Ok last run " only to find I am still out there 45min later.

That is the true dilemma. Can be exacerbated by a signal to your sweet lady that you are 'just having one more run...'
At 3 more runs you realised you have made a classic fkup and so better make it 10 runs to be worth the 'no seks tonight' consequence.

I like to finish with as many front rolls as it takes to unwind my lines from all the backrolls I have done in excess of frontrolls during the session. Then a little jump from the shallow water, board to hand, land on feet on sand.

To be honest, the board usually lands on the sand, too, but as long as I land on my feet I'm happy.
