    The cam in MTK does not point at a break. It's good to get an idea of he swell and conditions, but that's it

    Yea, you know there are outer bars where the cam is and breaks when there is a solid swell.....nice try. Care for double Jeopardy.

    Dude... I'm not trying to argue with you. Just letting you know whats up... I don't care if you think it's smaller than the report says (as well as everyone that is there).
    There is a reason you never see anyone surfing on the cam.

    Pitstops not cutting it for you? Cut your losses & head to Denny's.

    Out here it was bigger than forecasted. Big enough for me to sit this one out (not that it takes much).

    44098 is 28 @ 14. Been well past BelMar status for 10 hours. 30" and counting for CMass snow. EMass is just slightly under that. There's nothing ok about this but we must accept.

    I dream of wahines in bikinis in June.

    Funny to see guys in denial here...it was waist high today at best on long island. Maybe B_lmar or RI was bigger....but those forecasts for LI were completely overblown. Maybe guys just don't know about ENE swell directions here....pretty nub forecasting.

    looked lumpy and wonky on the cams in Belmar. Long Island looked clean. South Jersey looked clean. But waist high? Common. Quien es mas macho?!

    1) deffinitly not waist high
    2) the wind plays a factor....no one over called anything, with wind like this things get knocked down abit. But that's something you need to figure out on your own, no forecast will tell you that.
    3) even with wind knocking it down, it was still bigger than waist high

    With that being said I didn't get out, took all day to dig out, didn't have time to get down. Had to shovel the entire house alone. Mom's old, girl friend is injured, lucky me. I can tell from the pics Iv seen that it is in fact big though
