I used to go down there in the early 80's before it got 'hip'... saw some of the biggest waves of my life down there, saw Ian Campbell from Santa Monica catch a 25 footer... awesome.
I've known Kat for about 10 years, and watching her attain so much success is one of the great blessings in my life. She's a wonderful person and has so much talent it's sweet knowing her.
For future reference.. dairy products or peanut butter kill the burn :)
