[NoVibes...Stoke Promote]

Was there around 4... called it 1-2 ft w/occ. 3ft wedges. Hit up a little sandbar that gave it a bit more push. Def. not spectacular, but nothing to complain about b/c its better than doing nothing. Early AM tomm have to be out of the water by 8:30 for work.

[johnnytoobad]

i got there at noon and it was 3 or 4 ft max with liitle consistancy and became very disorganized and smaller around 4:00. i wanna go out right now too

[RobbWillow]

Actually johnny im glad b/c then you dont gotta worry bout people crashin ur spot and kookin out on you....but whatevers u just gotta check urself, its actually a good thing its not up there, in the long run u will relize why.......ANYONE KNOW THE SECRET TYO BEING A PRO SURFER.......YOU GOTTA HAVE A TRUST FUND..LOL

[johnnytoobad]

this am the waves were few but if u were in the right place at the right time u could get a good ride. very glassy and smooth. one other person out there besides me. this pm should be good

[NoVibes...Stoke Promote]

Surfed a glassy 5-6 ft barreling pointbreak w/ 82 degree water and 82 degree offshores. No one out but me and it was so easy to get barreled I was literally doin it w/ my eyes closed!!!

Was great until my alarm went off and I had to go to work! Glad you made it out J2B!

Hopefully this next front doesn't get all Northy on us and blow by...PM me tho if you wanna meet up and help find the best break.

[johnnytoobad]

sounds like you had a good am. WHERES THAT SPOT! jk im a newb at this but def am gettin the hang of it. i ride a 6'8 fish board. really only caught 1 wave this am but i was out ahead of the soup and was up on two feet, and it lasted 8 seconds lol. just beautiful out there and warm. (i dont have wet suit yet) so im down with gettin out.....i take care of my 2 yr old 5 days a week so i dont get many days to ride. im (pardon the cliche) "stoked" to be catching on.....ive had alot of people tell me id get frustrsted. too much skating in my background, to get frustrayed learning how to surf.......timing and the pop up are def two things to be good at and familiar with........ok nuff with the begginer bullsh@t....GET RIDING

[NoVibes...Stoke Promote]

im (pardon the cliche) "stoked"

Only the word may be cliche...the feeling is yours and that's what its all about!!! Angry surfers forget what it can do for a person and don't realize they demote the sport. If the conditions aren't safe, the angries intimidate ppl out of the water w/ threats or worse where a nice attitude and recommendation of another beach more suited to their needs sends them eagerly to the car. If not, they'll soon realize what a couple launched takeoffs and whitewater blasts will do to them.

A lot of sense can be talked into a 'kook' in less than five minutes with the right demeanor... I've actually made a bunch of people understand basic surf etiquette in between sets and you can see it click for em too. Anyone can get a board and there's no test or surfing license so there's always gonna be some oblivious people that just need some direction.

I'm not tryin to set up a defense counsel for all beginners tho... the oblivious/arrogant newb who goes out with a macho attitude and yells at the water b/c they don't get it is def a barney. They mimic a misinterpreted image of a good/tough surfer, they just can't surf. Usually, nothing can help em and it just takes time before they don't frequent your local spot.

I love to surf and found the stoke is a lot better for everyone if its mutual. Unless you're in a heat, surfing is a recreational sport for fun, fitness, and expression. Competition for waves may happen at the notorious local spots, but if it's goin off, somewhere else has to be almost as good w/ less people. Just takes the right attitude and exploration.

I spent a couple hours at N Jetty for Gustav and shot around the wash to meet someone droppin in. He did a cutback and lost his board when he saw me and it got me bad. Went to the beach bleedin from the scalp only to have this guy come running to punch me??? Got it cleaned and superglued and went to a different beach with walled up barrelin lefts and no one around. No crowd, perfect waves, and loong rides was the best day I've ever had here. Bypassed the jetty for Ike and scored again, empty beach perfect waves. Took a friend who turned into an excited teenage girl and couldn't stop smiling. I like the waves at venice, but sometimes the crowd is only tolerable for about an hour.

Srry for the giant post.... just my take on some problems

[NoVibes...Stoke Promote]

where is your bradenton.....holmes beach......anna maria island surf report.. ..surf report ah hem....please 4 bradenton

Where's T.D. been??? Wonder if he left for P.R.?

[NoVibes...Stoke Promote]

Fun waves this evening!

[johnnytoobad]

tankfully im older and a bit wiser since i took up this sport. i can see my self being a douche 15 yrs ago. i see the epitome of surfers, (some anyway) when they walk by and give ya a sneer grin, or the old man who says "ha ha givivn up alreay" and has a malevolent laugh with the friends. ive see the good side as well with a couple of young kids givin me pointers going out in the water together, (when one of the kids wanted to witness for jesus though that was too much, using surfing to spread the word" lol still not mean... i met some kids from USF surf club......little einsteins, nerdy but cool in the sense of friendly and promote. i have yet to have a true aggro experience out in the water....ive kept plenty of distance on good days and tried surfing crap, now that im begining to stand and ride and catch the wave im not gonna be as timid but im still all about empty waves as i have watched what happens whn 4 peeps get up on 1 wave.(it looks more dangerous than just surfing ya know) i dont wanna get cut or get tagged by another board. or be forced to defend myself, if ya come up on me aggro (i got lil guy syndrome) ill usually lay out a preemptive strike for the sake of self preservation, or ill run! lol......so im sure i will run into a problem and word are a first line of defense....ah hem........ id like to learn more about finding a surf spot. what do you look for. (is there maps for ocean topography u go by. whats ground swell? how much does tide play a part? whats a close out? ive read all the begginer stuff online, is there a web site with a surf glossary. im so f-ing hooked after the last two days just getting up and seeing the leash floppin around behind me.......you know ur ridin then!!!!!!

[ihatelongboarders]

blah blah blah i'm a kook

i feel like johnny too bad is the human incarnation of wilbur kookmeyer.

[johnnytoobad]

are you rippin on me dog or jus being funny. ive noticed some of your previous post and jus trying to make sense of the most recent.

[ihatelongboarders]

i am not your "dog" and please do everyone a favor and learn how to construct a lucid thought into logical and sequential order in a post. also please pick up a dictionary or use spell check. inhaling glassing resin kills slightly less brain cells then trying to navigate one of your posts.

[ihatelongboarders]

whats up wilby

http://www.wilbur-kookmeyer.com/assets/images/overfalls.jpg

[NoVibes...Stoke Promote]

At least he has an interest in the sport to post about it... Seems like he's really enjoying everything and doing what he can to enjoy it even more.

...Eh, I see your point, tho. JohnnyTooBad is a kooook and shouldn't be having a good time! I hope he never goes out in the water again and his cousin gets a severe case of the flu! May his computer crash so he can never make another postttt...

(Just an example of how ridiculous forum bashing is)

[johnnytoobad]

well said man. forum bashing or what have you. lol... im on a 3g network....im never surfing again......(as a shi@ eating grin slides across my face) i gotta thank longboard lover for the lesson in surf culture (ie: some surfers are protective of their sport) and a little surf art "wilbur" that i wouldnt have gone out of my way to see..... i copied and pasted it.....

[ihatelongboarders]

you both ride "fun shapes" and don't like riding backside. amirite?

[johnnytoobad]

i ride a 6'8 fish board since i just started 3 weeks ago and need something forgiving and stable. and as far as backside gos ive skated and snowboarded all my life so front or back side really doesnt matter. Tuesday starting to look huge!!! you wanna go out and show me how its done.....i imagine a grom has a hard time with backside riding. Tuesday...thats what we should be talkin about right now. wher r u going to on tues. shortboard right? do people do judos or airwalks on a surf board.. or do you remember the trick "a frigid" lead foot kick out behind you......Tuesday yeah dana dana dana wilburs comin for ya all....jk lol

[NoVibes...Stoke Promote]

you both ride "fun shapes" and don't like riding backside. amirite?

My all around go to board is a 5'11 swallow tail w/ glassed on wood fins non retro shape though. I ride thrusters when the waves get some juice. Reppin gulfside pride with the NXTCs 5'8 6'1 6'3... the 6'1 is a rounded pin I'va actually been saving to ride the BVI (tortola) in February. Have 2 Cult boards... but they're Taiwanese pop-outs that have good lam, but the fcs plugs are a bit goofed. I mainly let my friends use them. They're all "fun shapes" to me 5'8 - 6'3. Working at the surf expo can get you amazing deals on new boards.

The biggest, though, is a 7'6 funboard that I do enjoy on 1-2 ft coldfront left over day. I have it so I can get that last extra session in. It can be pretty weird to be out with a bunch of older men...I can see where you're coming from with the username.

Backside no problems... I like the power from the heels = bigger hacks. Grew up 15 min from haggerty's in cali and may not have been Chicama, but was a the longest left in the U.S. for me. Padang padang had me scared for my life on a mediocre day. At head high dredging and 1 foot deep, I can admit it was too much and had to move.

Been all over man... no pipe or anything, but I'm pretty satisfied with everything. I got no problems w/ you and just tryin to help others. I never thought of the negativity and criticisms I'd get for being myself.

[ihatelongboarders]

ooopha you guys both are killing me.

i won't go for a surf with you johnnykookmeyer and congratulations nostylevibes on surfing somewhere other than here. kudos to both of you.

[johnnytoobad]

[RobbWillow]

Trend, but we will see

[ihatelongboarders]

Trend, but we will see

wrong answer. when slater is winning contests on fishcuit quads it stops being a trend and starts being the future.

[RobbWillow]

slater is a surf whore...u people are not surfin for the right reasons, u surf to be free, to feel urself on top of mother nature, quad fins...hahahaha, for dudes who have no soul, so unless you wanna meet up and str8in this out man to man, mr i hate longboards, then shut the **** up...if you would like to settle this and handle it like men i would love to name the time n place

[johnnytoobad]
