Its definitely a kick-your-butt workout, that's probably why most people shy away from it as their standard regimen. I did it once through and now use it a couple times a week to supplement the...
If you're going to read only one book, read I Surf, Therefore I Am by Peter Kreeft. Kreeft is a brilliant theologian from the New England area, professor at Boston College who happens to love waves....
Bring both tops. And a spring suit if you've got it. The VB humidity just started a week ago, so days have been pretty hot, but the water is still chilly. I'd be cold out there if we go back to...
A couple of old round pin 8'4 longboards that I learned on, but always keep around for our average VB 1-2ft mush and good learning boards for teaching others, 7'0 hybrid type (not sure best way to...
Bushwood, thanks for the info. I was already leaning that way before, but your post kinda reinforced that. I don't know anyone that has one personally, so yeah, they could be good boards. But the...
Anyone know anything about Sovereign surfboards, a fairly new shaper in VB area? Ridden or own one of their designs? Their prices seem competitive, just wondering how well they'd compare to a well...
went late afternoon to 58th. it was a wierd wave, kinda funky, you never knew what you were gonna get after dropping in, but there was some size on it. most power and size we've had in a little...
Agree with Lee, the "groin" is too crowded already. Its not a groin at all, but it has built up a good amount of sand the last year plus. Same kind of structure that was at 42nd a few years ago. ...
Remember, he said end of June. Tropical energy hasn't really started yet, and summer flatness has basically set in. Expect lots of SE background swell, mostly logable but occasionally 3 ft on the...
Anyone else think this is really ironic...that deployed military are overseas fighting for their lives, and yet won't be getting their paychecks this period because Obama and the Dems have a couple...
I have a friend who lives back there. Its not bad; its generally quiet I believe, and right behind the Contemporary Arts Center, which is a positive. There are much worse places in VB that you can...
The main point to take away is that colder water temps shrink your hands, as fallingsky mentioned. When my wife and I honeymooned in Costa Rica, the water and air were so warm that I didn't have a...
scypher, I'm guessing you've just moved here if those are your choices.
Coastal Edge is the least core it gets, example being they have a shop in the mall as ughVeeBee pointed out.
WRV has now...
True, 3ft @ 11 sec will be a better and probably bigger wave than 5ft @ 6 sec.
For example, 4ft @ 14 sec will be a bigger wave than 6ft @ 8 sec or even 7 ft @ 5 sec. And of course, have more...
One more thing about period...this was partially implied already, but the longer the period the faster each wave moves. The shorter the period the slower it moves. By moves, I mean the velocity...
Don't bring it. You are traveling to a foreign country for a reason...and not just to surf. A vacation is to get away from it all, work, traffic, day to day responsibilities, and yes technology. ...
wallysurfr is correct here. Most christians would not consider themselves religious, but something way different and more than that. It is the world's view of "religion" that gives it a bad name. ...
