    Hi, my name is DD. I've been addicted for over 25 years. I AM an aquaholic. My wife made me move from CB to SoFlo. I think I may need a lil help.

    Dear DD,

    Hi.

    Welcome.

    You came to the right place!

    Have you ever put any thought into flying a banner to help cope with your issues?


    See you in the lineup- when you paddle out at Belmar, NJ (best break on the east coast) when it's 23ft.


    Yours truly
    Mr Belmar

    Thank you. I can't see going much further north than OBX. That was cold enough for me. I do miss descent waves though. And no I don't bench enough to paddle into 23' Belmar.

    When did you make your descent from CB to SoFlo?

    Almost a year ago. It has been a tough transition. I still go up north for hurricane swell but this past rainy season sucked, baddd. The NorEasters seem to be ok so far down here for winter. But this place has no real guts as far as I can tell. The only good thing that I can really mention is that flights are cheap to PR (almost cheaper than gas to central Fl)

    How decent are you at descending under the lip on warm water duck dives?

    Florida is a fan favorite topics of Swellers round here. There are several treads discussing the finer points and unsavory cats down there.

    Witch wetsuite do you charge with down there, if any?

    Thanks for saying Hello. It goes a long way here. A couple Swellers will want to see any pics you care to share. For wahines, do you prefer front piece or back piece?

    I'm heading down to PR after Xmas. Most likely in Feb to stay at a buddy's place around Rincon beside a loud bar that he isn't appreciated much around there. He messed up pretty quick but his place is awesome.

    It looks like a decent swell coming through Sun, PB northward. Maybe I'll get lucky at that shark bite inlet

    Not built for it, but down for it. It's funny to me to see people wearing wetsuits down here. I believe you call them wetsuites. Oh and Mr. Spicoli, I see what you did with the descent and decent. Touché

    The best thing about S fla is that air fare to Central 'Merka is half the price than from almost everywhere else.
