Today was fun. Got leftover swell after all. Only was out for 1.5 hours but got a few good rides. There was ice on the shore line and my booties froze on walk back to car at 10am. But it was at least 15 degrees by then. Hah
You guys really missed it! You should have been there yesterday! I checked everywhere the other day and it just wasn't coming together- between the wind and the sandbars- it was either super sectiony or closing out... Until that is - when I pulled up to Belmar,NJ! I don't even know why I checked anywhere else!! It was a good 2 to 3 ft bigger and the lefts where peeling the whole way to the beach- with a inside barrel section! There was only like 5 to 8 guys out! Some pics taken with my phone from my truck: #belmarisbettetthenyourbreak
Nahh, like ZaGaffer, I remember everything I read.......or maybe 95% of it...........85% during full moons. So, if someone reminds the forum five times a week that they previously lived in Sand Diego, I tend to remember it. Ya know what it is that I be sayin'? Zippy, you better look-up the definition of Stalking, because McCoy on Law & Order wouldn't prosecute your case. Like, you actually stalk me. You appear in every thread I am a major part of. Then you usually sneak in for a little jibe. If I was stalking you, I'd appear in every thread you post of which therefore in. I don't. If I was stalking you, I'd be calling various people and places in Delaware looking for you. I'd be on the hunt. And even if I wanted to, I left my binoculars, camo fatigues, ladder and invisibility potion up in Edmonton, Alberta........I was stalking a real choice bird up there. Until she got all crazy and sh!t. And besides, I have open myself like a book. So if anybody has been paying attention youse guys got my story that there of which. So it's only fair that I know a tiny bit aboot youse guys at there for.
Zach, you seem all bent. Zachary, you were a bit snarky in your first post. Right Bobby De Niro? " Ahhhhh, yeah he was a little bit snarky.....a little bit....a little bit." See? Now, I have good information that you lived in Harve De Grace from the years 1990-1997. I also have good information from Juan Ashton that you haven't surfed in OCMD in some time. I also contacted your father in Bethany. He claimed not to know you and refused to acknowledge your existence. Harve De Grace is my GO TO Maryland town. For some reason it really seems to upset these guys........ Maybe I randomly dialed the wrong Bethany, DE phone number? Now that I think aboot it, it sounded like a female on the other end of the line. "Sir, I am calling to ax aboot your son Zach619 who now lives in South Carolina....." Oh, you didn't strike a personal nerve. I was upset at skipping on it. But, I went out yesterday and could assume that Friday, IN MY LOCATION, must have been nothing but a corner hunt. Plus, I felt like shat in the water yesterday. I got AIDS or something as I've been sick for two weeks. Anyways, I do not tolerate snarkiness directed at New Jersey people from one in South Carolina. We own this coast so please, I implore you, to show us the respect that we deserve. NICK: First of all, I didn't do anything snarky to you. The only time I addressed you(while mentaly undressing you) I merely explained the Multiple Character Theory here on Swellinfo.com. That's all I did. Plus, I even offered to counsel or advise you if you had any problems...... Sounds pretty nice to me. And no one makes you do anything. You are in control of your own anger and how you respond on surf predictin' website forums. They'll tell you in any anger management class that YOU alone control your anger. No one gets you angry but yourself.
Just saying, you called me out for being from "San Diego, South Carolina and Havre De Grace" Brah... I didn't mention it until you did. Missing the fact that I have clocked plenty of time in winter months in Delmarva defeated your whole point. If you were a real stalker and had looked further into my thread archives, you would have known that. That's all I be sayin... Ya missed a good swell. The other guys on this site that live in the same place as you got some goodness and have photographic evidence to prove it. It happens. There is always next time
PB&J: ka caw? Gotta convert on third down. Those two games were so damn good that Doug converted into a full-time football fan. He said he's got slices and fish tacos at his crib during today's games for all SI brahs except patgeds22 and underage grommets because he doesn't want to deal with forged permission slips and hyperglycemic sugar comas.
Lol, I can't believe this is still going on, you guys are wasting half your lives on here. I will try and and clarify my point further. Ive always been tired of people blaming the surf and not their lack of ability for a bad session or ride etc. I for one have had bad sessions and have been closed out on BUT on the same day, same waves have seen better surfers getting barreled, pulling airs and just plain doing **** I can only dream of. SO, do the waves suck or do we suck? That's the question you have to ask yourself. For me I'll continue to blame myself for a bad ride rather than the wave. And as for closeouts, yes they exist. I saw a mile long wave hit a beach break all at the same time in El Salvador, now that is a closeout.
Zippy we know what you meant. Yes, wave quality and surf skill both exist cooperatively (or uncooperatively) on the same continuum. You got us going to start. Closeouts will definitely now be a running SI joke. What break at ES did you see that mile wave? Looked on Dogfunk for deals on 7mm boots but they also told me closeouts don't exist.
So, are you saying that you did live in Havre De Grace.? How come the mere mention of that town drives you guys nuts? I might have to check it out some Let me tell you, I do like my 5 mil.....well not the one I currently don as it has seen better days, yet I'm still out there in the tatters. I do like loneliness. Spicoli: The Eagles suck. I was a fool to fall for the hype. They have all of these offensive records, yet they never look dominate(besides the Chicago game). They squeeked by most games. They continually get burned by second string running backs. They have success when they blitz and get pressure, but constantly only rush 3. Their pass defense sucks anyways, so might as well rush a full load. They start plays with 17 seconds on the play clock, at the end of games, when they have a slight lead..... They look nothing like the era when Donovan came to be......They F'd people up. This team beats records yet never dominates. But they almost beat an experienced "elite" team last night. The Saints are frauds.
11 pages of people arguing about waves they didn't even surf. This is worse than listening to the old guys on the beach stare at perfect big surf and make excuses about the tide, wind, sun, consistency of sand grains, etc.....I atleast give them credit for getting off their asses and going outside.
Good morning PBJ.... No, unfortunately I have never lived in Havre De Grace. I just assumed you got burnt on some fake dope down there or something and are still pissed about it. Now, if you make a Dundalk reference, I will get a kick out of that... No, Im not from Dundalk.... But, on a lighter note, Nick Foles did save my ass in one of my FFB leagues. I drafted Matt Ryan. What a loser that tool is. Yesterday was a total bust as far as the NFL. Jim Irsay and those bastard Colts pulled one out of their asses. And Drew Brees got their first road win EVER in the post season. I still have hope. I need the Chargers to smoke the Bengals, leaving those clowns still not having a post season win in 22 years. I would also love to see GB take out SF.... Kaepenerick and the niners talked too much trash after losing the superbowl. We beat ourselves. We should have won... Blah Blah, while with no power outage they would have lost by 30 points. And the Bengals did the same thing last week leading up to the ravens game... We want to end the Ravens season... Blah Blah... We are the Bengals... fu**ing clowns. pisses me off to see sh**ty organization win. The niners are a respectable organization, they just have a bunch of 2 bit thugs and clowns on their team. At lesat GB and SD have some character athletes on their squad. You can't buy class.
Then why do you read all the stuff you claim to dislike? Like, some unnatural force made you read this whole thread. Hey, Skeg, when you coming up to Jersey?
It's enjoyable in a narcissistic way, plus it gives me something to do at work......although it is a sunday... I surf jersey maybe 2 times a year tops, when that NEer comes through, but the winds want to linger with too much North in them for anything to work here. Hop the ferry and make it up. It's been a few years since we've had a setup like that, usually late fall storms. But maybe i'll take the trip if you promise to show me where the finger goes.
Okay, I am done with the lies. I am in fact from Havre De Grace. Mention my name at any bar in the HDG and you will drink for free all night long. Ohh, and drop my name in Tuba City AZ and you will get the king's treatment. They owe me big time out there.
Well, you be careful in Cape May. Some say them folks down there are a bit ornery. Skeg, just think how cool it would be to be snarky with me in person. Hey, was that last line of yours supposed to be an insult. Or were you trying to approach me with some type of sex act? Oh, so you enjoy this stuff in a narcissistic way? Like, this site makes you feel special or more intelligent or something? Really? Do you really think you are mo' smarter than EmassSpicoli? Really? You might want to switch "narcissistic" with "delusional." As in, "It's enjoyable in a delusional way." Skegs, your life would be incomplete without me.
I do not trust people who communicate in any means other than snarkish. Problematic of most people who grew up close enough to have daily interactions with Philadelphia's finest contribution to america....it's residents.
Yesterday would have been a good time to make the trip... 'cept it would have to be another two hour drive from the ferry to get the real goods. Plenty of juice left... sun was out... light offshore breeze all day. And talk about snarky... whew... rough crowd, as usual.
Skeg Legs - some of us surfed the last few days. Biz as usual, breh. No biggie. Couple ice crystals on the brow on the walk back. Just another day, another sesh. btw, brah, Philly ain't as hard as it gets. Unless your stoop is on the outskirts of Temple University. You're not captive to your EC lineage either. Smiling more often would benefit you and less small children would cry in your presence. Then, you'd spare Slashdog unneeded manslaughter charges when he shakes those babes for crying. zach619 - a "total bust"?!?! Braddah, yesterday gave us two games. One of which was tied for the 2nd biggest comeback ever in the history of the NFL playoffs?! and the other was a neck and neck 4 quarter race between two teams under a lot of fan/media pressure for franchise underachievement over the years. Both games came down to a kick and final score in the waning minutes. What else would've stroked your pickle? This is the best season in football history. The bad news Patriots are about to win the Super Bowl using middle school defensive tackles and a JV HS tight end, among other no names and gym class heroes. Your Bolts are winning right now, braw. Be easy. And hating on Matty Ice? Look at his recent 5-year record excluding this season. You put your faith in him on fantasy draft day, live with it. How do you know Matt Ryan didn't draft you for his fantasy surfing league? Bet he did. Oh, and this in no way lessens the reverence I have for you on a surfing level. Because of you, I don't rock a leash in over 50 degree water and under OH+ wave height. PB&J - this year was a bonus for you Eagles fans. Things were in the crapper for a while til it got Sunny in Philadelphia thanks to some stud QB. Can you host a Jeopardy format contest between Skeg Legs and I? You pick the categories. Braddahs, can we outlaw use of the word "snarky"?? It's what the Germans call "über geigh". Just sounds weird. Let's come up with another word for it. One that won't confuse most of the illiterate picture menu readers of SI.
Grommet no worries. Matty and Smitty got it on lock. The dirty birds are 56-24 in Ryan's tenure before this year. Plus, you should know that it goes 10-6 one year, 6-10 the next. 2014 is an even year and they're 64-31 in even years since '02. You just worry bouts sackin those southern belles and gettin pitted, ya hear now brah? Dem birds are set.
