Walk up, board under my arm, coffee in one hand and phone up to ear in the other hand. Talk just loud enough so everyone can hear my conversation with the kid holding down the shop while I’m at the spot. Talk strictly about how glassy the waves were this morning and how perfect my single fin thruster was for the conditions. Set my keys, coffee, cigarettes and board down on whatever obstacle everyone is skating. Then sit my ass down in a lounging position to be as comfy as possible while I finish my phone conversation which now consists of me just saying “yeah” several times. Put my phone down, make eye contact with everyone at the spot, sip my coffee for a few minutes, then spark up a cig as I leave without stepping on my board once or saying a word to anyone there.
