What Are Your Surfing Goals for 2012?

For me I've got them listed as following:
#1. get out of this cycle of 1-2 sessions then injury and 2-3 weeks out. I plan to do that by working out regularly and getting on a stretching/yoga regime. Sucks gettin' old and I'm really starting to feel it.
#2. work on getting my back foot leash plug back. This is where all the gangsta chit comes from. Having my foot leash plug back when turning and surfing more top to bottom is one of the keys to HP surfing. which brings me to...
#3. surf more top to bottom and none of this race to the shoulder and cutback chit. drop in, come off the bottom into that first turn and the next one. surf the wave section by section vs a more lateral approach.
#4. roundhouse cutbacks all the way back into the foam. none of this stopping before the foam stuff. get back into the power source w/ a high rebound.
#5. Frontside fins out re-entries. Besides  with my wife, the frontside re-entry where I feel the fins break free (only on 2 occasions this year) is the best thing I've got in my life right now. Very elusive but one of the most amazing things I've ever done. Feel the fins break free and then reconnect in the flats. so bada$$  I wanna be able to do these off my 1st turn vs the inside end section. getting these consistently would make my year. heck, being able to hit the lip consistently would make my year, which brings me to....
#6. Hit that lip yo! Surf more vertically and see a cutback as a linking maneuver to let me smack that lip yo! The ultimate goal is a vertical attack since that chit is super fun for me. So goal is to tag the lip on every wave at least once.
That's it for now. Been on injured reserve so gonna start w/ #1 and surfing more consistently. Hopefully I'll hit all the rest before 2013 knock on wood, err I mean foam and fiberglass. (BTW for 2013 I wanna be able to punt like Heavyfooted)
