we've had over to double-overhead good waves this time of year here
My bad. Just glanced at the swell size of 8-12/ 8-10+. I'll definitely keep my fingers crossed regardless.Quote:

Definitely some fun ones this morning at dawn, lefts were better and didn't close out as much. It's been nice to get out the lats 2 days before work!Quote:

That is an awesome wave! Is it Belmar? Correct me if I am wrong... While that wave might be quadruple overhead for a body boarder I would guess only 8ft (If that is the spot I am thinking of and that angle) according to east coast wave measurements. Maybe I am wrong and that is a triple OH swell. Let me know!
Doogie Houser,
"It 'seems' like West coast swells are more reliable, longer-lasting, and bigger."
Wow, when did you figure that one out. Thanks for enlightening the rest of us with that keen observation. I don't think anyone knew that. Blew my mind.
Everyone on this site is either coming or going to Costa Rica........Everyone is a karate kid too( I saw that thread about "fighting/boxing" to get in shape......and lo and behold everyone is Ralph Macchio) Then everyone one in Virginia Beach lives "right down the road" from the downed Navy jet. Amazing group we have here. Hey, I'm intrigued.
Bigger then 8ft... One of the biggest waves I've seen from New Jersey.Quote:

Oh I was being a wise-arse to Doug, though......... cause I owe him a few snaps.
And 757, thanks for your warm welcome .........Now I'm just gonna wait for the meany guys to pick up on that and get all meany on me.
Oh yeah one more observation.......in the music thread a few months back.......it was interesting how the group tried to one-up each other by claiming a more obscure band than the next guy. Like, the lesser-known the band, the cooler I am for listening to them. You find that a lot in the surf world. Look at surf mags CD reviews.....WHO THE TRUCK ARE THESE GROUPS !!! I taint never heard of them....and I'm almost positive they suck too. Led Zeppelin was the greatest band ever and I will sodomize anyone who thinks differently.
