Feeling much like a fish out of water, I was in search for some surf in Tucson. Looking for waves in landlocked Tucson sounds like an exercise in futility (much like hunting fresh chondrites on an island of basalt), but I did manage to catch one beautiful wave here.

It is an impact heat altered Gibeon IVA with mechanically distorted Widmanstatten pattern that I acquired from Anne Black in the Impactika showroom. Cowabunga baby!
