What you really need is a rubber ducky for the bath tub. Those are the biggest waves you have ever seen...braaaah.

Get a 7'6' funshape. That is the best board to learn on.

The only thing that bothers me is arrogance. The guy who paddles out and gives you a look of contempt and then acts like the whole ocean belongs to only a pro like him. (ya hearing me...

Dude.Keep yer paws off my Kate.

Heh. Actually got a little chuckle from that.

Reports for SD look a lot better than this neck of the woods...(Florida).
You guys seeing anything from the storm down south?

Is that you Njshredmachine?

There is a rhythm to every swell. Don't want to sound all mystic and spiritual here but...you have to get a feel for what is happening.Some days are just going to be hard to read.
One of my favorite...

Monsanto= everything that is evil in this world.

You have gone loco senor. Florida gets something every season. Not always good surf producing wind...but we always get at least one storm.

Gee...thanks for the advice.No really.Thank you.

so instead of crying online about how kooks are ruining your spot,go take a surf trip to indo,tahiti,hawaii and tell them how much locals rule and...

I thought this winter was really good.Seems like I was getting some good surf every week since about Oct.
Hurricane swell can be great...but it takes a lot of things coming together to make it...

Agree. Nothing like just being out there. Make sure you are learning on a board that is big enough to build confidence. Watch people that know what they are doing,that will teach you as much as...

Nice board. I have a Firewire that is similar( 6 foot) and have had it in some OH conditions with no problems. I am also in the 170 weight range.

Yes...but you would get a two foot wave and they would hand you a used foam top to ride.

"confession booth"- I can relate to that. It has been a while since I have spent some time in the green room.It may have to wait for a good named storm at this point.

I learned on the west coast and have been up and down the east. I now live on the east side and I will just say that all the east coast guys have a bad case of envy.
Me included.I would make the...

Turned the board over the top of the ending wave and rode into the one behind it. Stayed up through the transition.

I know it happens. Today I was at the end of a pretty good ride and started to turn for the paddle back out...and another wave was right behind the one I was on. Pure luck of timing,but I was able to...

Geez Paddington...gonna take about 3 solid days of good surfing to pull me out of the depression THAT post put me in. The truth can be painful.

I keep going back and forth with this. This guy is either pulling our chains and it is one big con...or he is truly the dumbest box of rocks with access to a computer.
I read his comments and...

Just push yourself a little more each time you go out. Small steps will get you down the road.

North is better. Been good for days in the Cocoa pier area.

Hey shred. I bench 525,drive a Porsche turbo s, have 7 girlfriends that are all Hindu models, and oh yeah...I won the last 5 pro surfing contests that I competed in (got bored with it after whippin...

Heading down there for my first trip over labor day. You guys make it sound like an adventure just getting to the coast from SJ. Been looking at cams for Hermosa etc. and am getting pretty psyched.
