Our friend Steve Carber arrived for a two-week visit on February 9th, which happened to coincide with the largest surf day of the year here in Dakar. After he settled-in here at our flat in Ouakam, we walked down to the plage to check out the waves, which were breaking overhead. See clip1 clip2 clip3.
Surfers can be recognized in the water for their personal styles/habits. Watching one surfer reminded me of video footage I'd previous seen of Mike Dvorak -- a particular stance, a tall frame, the way in which he works a wave. It turned out it was Mike, when he later emerged from the water and greeted us. See if you can identify him in the video clips.
Small world.
