I saw on another thread that IRI was "messed up". I surfed there for many years but haven't been back in several as I've moved south. So what happened to it? With the new bridge it was a bit of a walk from the new parking area but not bad. I really liked the crowd there and the long right could hold a pretty good swell.
Still insanely crowded even with the lessor quality. People dropping in on each other etc, it's a Zoo over there.
Maybe you could PM whoever said that in a other thread and get your answer. I think the moderators of this site frown on posting about specific breaks...even ones that suck
It hasn't been good for about 3 or 4 years, with all the sand pumping....the only time it does get good is when there is a large swell....but don't tell all floods of people that surf there that...let 'em keep crowding a dead break...lol But as much as it sucks now, in "06 when Ernesto came through...it was the biggest, cleanest and most beautiful waves I have ever been out in on the east coast.
This spot has been blown up for a long time. No need to act like it's a secret.....When it is big and firing the crowds are minimal.
OK did not know the rule about mentioning any spots though its hard to imagine anyone doesn't know about IRI. Shame to hear it is crazy now because it used to be a great mellow spot with plenty of room to spread out and a very cool crowd. Could always count on BWD for the entertaining stories. Oh Well the times they are a changin. Dawn patrol is still the best crowd control.
