Weekend storm: It's so bad that meteorologists have forgotten how to spell "California."
    My blond baby's the next big thing in surfing!
    How young is too young to surf? How old is too old? "You're never too old to rock 'n roll," as Jethro Tulls sings and the Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, and others prove.

    But riding waves on the professional circuit? Surfing (like skateboarding), unlike other sports, has an interesting relationship with age.

    Hang Ten, motherfathers! Eat my wake foam!
    Depending on how one practices the sport -- from big waves to small, longboards to short -- one can pretty much do it from the day one starts walking until, well, the day one stops [walking and breathing].
    Will one be charging the whole time? Probably not. At least not like 11-year-old young gun Kalama Jedidiah Stratton at Waimea Bay, as seen below. More: VIDEO: 11-year-old surfs giant Waimea Bay with breaching whales in the background
