that is prime time for heavy rains n onshore winds for a lot of central america. atleast here in Nica, so its not the most ideal time to visit. A lot of the onshore flow is from the tropical...

stay at a surf lodge within walking distance to a break, you can take pictures of your buds surfing, then you can walk back to put it in your room and go back out to surf with them worry free. having...
malaria isnt a problem. maybe get the others if you do or plan on doing alot of travel off the beaten track. the Hep A vaccination, i believe, is a series of 2 shots. the first one covers you for a...

my spot in South Jersey was right on for yesterday and today and super fun. maybe drive around to other towns/breaks. or better yet, dont, and go home and complain to your computer...
haaa you sound like the infomercial dude. but seriously, it does get you in good shape, i did it a year ago. now i just mainly pop in chest/back, plyo or yoga. those 3 are the best for surfing in my...
haha i was seriously thinking the same thing, just follow them out there. i got nothing going on and wouldnt mind making a few extra smackers. im in jersey tho, not RI.
forecasting for the east coast is very tough, especially more than 2-3 days out. its not like forecasting large storms out of the SPAC or NPAC and u know swell is coming a 7-10 days ahead of time....

Santa Crowdalina is a zoo but the town is cool and there are 2 waves in 45 minute walking distance. 1 north and 1 south. usually empty or only a few guys on it. obviously not as good but still fun....
do yoga, it really helps. i recommend the p90x yoga routine. its 90 minutes and you feel great after. it really helps to stretch and relax as well as strengthen your core muscles. i herniated a disc...
its safe, march can be a good time bc the south swells are starting to pick up, if your there for 2 weeks ull score for sure. it can get gusty offshore winds that time of year and the water may get...
