Yeah a 3/2 is probably not going to suffice for NH and Maine for spring and fall, unless you are a warmer person than most. North of the cape, a 3/2 should get you into November at least, maybe...

Calf cramps sometimes for sure...also I get random hip cramps sometimes while sitting on the board that are like debilitating. Usually have to float on the back for 30 seconds or so to stretch it...
Ha Peter Pan is around and well, mostly SUPing his way through the lineup these days, sometimes you'll see him on a log (Bic, of course). Still owns a shop in town too. Pretty nice guy - my only...
^ Ha! Gold. I think that thread was my first ever post on this forum.
^ also I should mention, I'm 5'11", 170 and I ride my bottom feeder at 5'9", in hindsight, I'd get it at 5'8" or 5'7", but the benefit of the extra size is I can literally catch ankle snappers on it.
I've got a bottom feeder and love it. It grovels well but you can surf it in much bigger waves, it's my go-to for anything chest high and down and I've ridden it up to a foot or two overhead with no...
What's the bottom contour on this look like?
I'd have a hard time with that, just cause there are so many people up there through the course of the events, but here's a few.
I think Ronnie Blakey does a pretty nice job in the booth,
occy...
There's definitely a balance that needs to be struck. Occy is great, when Dorian comes in and calls at certain events he's good, Joe Turpel does a pretty nice job even though he wasn't calling the...
Maybe you haven't made any friends on your own trips PJB, but you're making a pretty broad generalization with a relatively negative implication on the kindness of people in the surf destinations...
Lot of bashing Cote, and for good reason, but really - Dave Wassel is the worst surf commentator ever.
To be fair, very few of the people thrown on at the various contests are any good at all, but...
Yikes! I tore my feet apart pretty bad on the rock/reef/barnacles this weekend, but now they don't hurt so much after seeing that....
Best wishes on a quick recovery, and a world of respect for...
Never bought surf stuff off them, but bought a lot of snowboard gear off those specials back when I was living in Colorado....no complaints at all. Good deals, prompt delivery, never a hiccup.
^ Really fun saturday AM as well. surprisingly un-zoolike.
+1 for sure. All talk of real skimmers aside, is there anything more fun on a flat day at the beach than watching a pack of 14 year olds skimming, waiting for the one who slides to dry and face...
I hate you right now. Nothing personal, just geographical.
In all seriousness, enjoy, that sounds glorious. Had a nice run of surf around here a few weeks back, but not with that kind of juice...
+1. Sounds cool - there better be a shot of NJSM on a precisely 23-foot wave though.
No intention of disrespecting or insulting cyclists...and you're right about them mostly being hipsters with fixed gears. And don't even get me started hipsters. Like the ones who spend their...
What infuriates me isn't the cyclists correctly and safely riding their bikes on the road, it's all the ones who blatantly ignore the laws (at least here in MA) and ride their bikes on city...
Dude you realize those are SWELL forecasts, not nearshore breaking wave heights? 6 foot at 7 seconds is not going to give you 6 foot breaking wave heights, save for an otherwise perfect alignment of...
Phish sucks and so do people from Connecticut. Brutal left-lane cloggers. I'm no speeder, but people sitting in the left lane going 60 INFURIATES me, and CT is full of such offenders. Pull left to...
+1 I cannot figure that out. Seems like wasted motion from your description, not saying it's not helpful, just don't think I understand it.
funny similar story. I used to work at a Market Basket (NE regional supermarket). Worked there for a couple years. When I was 18 or 19 or so, I was up a a Market Basket in NH trying to buy beer...
I definitely kick. Probably look like an idiot doing it, but I feel like it helps
or prairie doggin' it?
