Weed Meditation and Surf Gratification with Diana Tsai

Wilding Fifty: Surf Tales

In this episode we cover a wide range of topics with Diana Tsai from drought tolerant gardening, to short boarding, to how her training as a physical therapist informed how to get into paddling shape and deal with surfing injuries. I hope you enjoy this conversation.
Episode Highlights:

[00:00] Weed Meditation, growing worms and drought tolerant gardening
[08:35] Decent wave, minimal crowd. Our surf session
[12:25] Females can do what guys do. Transitioning to a short board
[16:30] The most amazing feeling. Learning to surf
[21:06] Eerie beaches. Surfing (or not) in the time of Covid
[23:12] I can see your brain! Surf injuries
Quotes from Diana Tsai:
"Since I'm a physical therapist, I was able to just manage it on my own and build up the strength."
"Surfing was a great outlet because it still allowed me to get out and get some exercise. It's actually what helped mentally and physically to get through that period of time where things were stressful and unknown."
"What was challenging with learning how to surf is that the muscles that you use and how you use them is really different from a lot of other forms of exercise. You have to get into paddling shape."
