Ok gidgets, no first hand account of the waves from last weekend. It looked like there was some fun swell though. I’m still not allowed to surf because of my knee injury from the car drop in. But at least I got rid of the terminator leg and my leg is more looking like a leg again rather than a tree trunk. And in other good news, while I have been sick puppy, the website fairies have been here and given the Venus Goes Gidget site a bit of a make-over.
As promised, voila…the new Venus Goes Gidget site. Not only did it get a new outfit and new logo as sported also on the Venus Goes Gidget Instagram and Venus Goes Gidget Facebook page, but we’ve also cleaned up the site a bit so it should be easier to find your way around.
Under home you’ll see the following categories:
- Wave Wisdom: That’s where you’ll find surf tips, ocean knowledge, insights into the surfing world and anything else you need to know when you are just starting out as a gidget and you are still pretty new to the surfing world.
- Gidget Gear: If you want to know about surfboards, wetsuits, rashvests, leash, fins… where to get them, how to fix them, etc. then Gidget Gear is the place to look.
- Great Gidgets: Here’s some inspiration for you. Once a month or so, we’ll bring you an inspiring gidget to tell you about their love for the waves and surfing.
- Surf Style: You’ll find everything around surfing that’s not necessarily happening in the water but still of interest for the common gidget. Food for gidgets, Surf movie reviews, Surf fashion, exercise for gidgets, etc.
- Surf Stories: That’s where you can read about weekend wave wraps, stories from surf trips and any other surf stories from a woman’s surfer point of view.

The new site looks cool Claudia. BTW, what happened to Hermann ? Did he make it or there was no recovery for him ?
Thanks Vlad :-) Herman died…no recovery. He looked pretty bad.
