I am currently training at penn state university and am a white belt with a few months experience...so i am pretty new but love the sport (almost as much as surfing). I am going to be in...
I just noticed your name had bjj in it. Do you practice brazilian jiu jitsu? I am live in chincoteague during the summer and am looking for people/place to train. Are there any places around?
I surf. I bodyboard when I cant surf. And yes, I do use a morey mach 7.
The bad thing is that sometimes they do go in and have to be saved by me, another surfer, or the lifeguards. I remember 2 or 3 summers ago there was this one day where the storm surge was just too...
Lol, yea these are the worst but generally when there is any swell these people are not in the line ups because its too ROUGH
I wear my 3/2 through june for DP sessions. most tourists do not...
I only do it because it makes me look cool:D
JK. I am in the water a lot more in the summer and love the warm water. I have off all summer, so I have a lot more free time. There are plenty of...
Ouch. 2mm. Way tooooo cold for me.
That means that.....
the non winter surfers will start to plague the water. i have a feeling the next weekend swells are going to be packed:(
im with ya on the warm water. I dont think anyone prefers wetsuits. But I avoid OCMD at all costs from mem-labor day. Its way too crowded. If i do go, its a dp session and even then on a crappy...
Do what you prefer. Me, I would go with wax but I do not like tailpads. Either way is fine as long as you like it.
Yes, and if the rashguard doesnt work, you can get a rashguard with lining that is warmer. But you will get the most use from a 5/4 and 3/2. That transition point between the 2 isnt really that...
I have hangers that are very wide at the shoulders, plus the hangers are covered in rubber(neoprene). I found them at walmart for business suits.
+1 on the 3/2. I have a 5/4 and 3/2. If I am a bit too cold in my 3/2 i wear a rashguard under it.
honestly, I try to keep my 3/2 at around $100. I currently have a ripcurl that was $89. I have had this one for 3 years and use it a lot in the late spring and early fall. I find that the extra...
You may be best off going to a shop and picking up a used board. Your board is much heavier than standard PU or epoxy boards. I would start out used because they are cheaper, plus once you beat it...
surfboards dont really go on sale too often, but there is usually a bunch of used boards that are reduced in price at most shops. Also, some shops have a surfboard swap where people come to sell...
i was at brave new world in pt pleasant. not sure what ones they had, but they had about 10 on clearance, I think $100 off original.
S core has been shut down for 1-2 years. Some shops still carry them. I was at a shop in jersey this weekend and they had them on clearance, so apparently they are still in some shops. Are you...
havent tried the epoxy ones, but my bodyboard is meant to take a beating, which makes stringers, epoxy, and extra features not to appealing. I get most of my speed with my flippers anyway. ...
morey mach 7 is the best bodyboard of all time. check out videos on youtube of mike stewart taking on pipe with it. the industry was started with that board, so you cant go wrong, even if others...
If the board isnt taking on water and surfs good, then dont have anything done. The above poster is probably right though, you may have some bad delams. They would be worth getting fixed. They are...
Check out surfparks. apparently they are building one of these in NYC when they get the one in FL going.

I was just in jersey last weekend and had a 5/4 with hood, boots and gloves and lasted about 2 hours.
You can probably do a 4/3 but you need hood, boots, gloves...5-7mm thick.
I dont think a...
no wave casting model will ever be perfect, and swellinfo, as well as most of the others do a really good job at it. The best way to predict, in my opinion, is to take these models and apply them to...
No, that was a different contest. Here is info from the organizations site: http://deanrandazzocancerfoundation.org/news.php
For anyone interested. $20 entry fee which includes rash guard. march 1st-31st in jersey. anyone interested or who wants to donate should check it out...
