East coast Towing

haters gunna hate

 

if people can paddle into JAWS you can paddle into overhead southside or 93th street in OC.

 

A great spot, even though the government keeps trying to ruin it to protect their sacred bridge.

idk why everyone hates on the tow in guys, they're doing their thing... which is surfing.

Funny how surfers hate on surfers for surfing.

 

best delmarva footage i've ever seen.....

 

Wild Lyfe Crew always puts out sick edits of Delmarva.

 

that kinda quality both surf and production was unheard of just 10 yrs ago.

 

If i could pack 20 barrels into a session as opposed to 0-2, i'd be on that ski alll day!

 

Here's how I feel about it...better to paddle for sure but I don't know this spot...maybe it's all ripped out and impossible to catch without a ski. Also, I can see it is freezing balls......... I have no idea....BUT..if you are using a ski don't hide it in all the footage...THAT is lame

 

Metard posted a link to some tow in footage in Florida during last weeks swell. Lots of us used to paddle in there, but due to sand build up due to lots of factors, it is a very sketchy paddle in and I have no beef with those that tow in there. They don't get in the way of anyone who could paddle in there, so they should be able to catch all the barrels their skills can handle.

And if it wasn't for Big Oil, they couldn't tow, unless they had PWCs powered by veggie oil or something. Imagine that, the lineup would smell like french fries.

 

thats a pretty gnarly wave. like neck breaking gnarly. Do folks paddle into that wave, get that deep and make it out?

 

Step offs, not towing. And those dudes rip whether they paddle or step off.

Except they can get 50 waves in a day, get a good clip and earn a paycheck..

 

It looked like a blast! Don't be a hater, be a congratulator!

 

..Some one had to say it. Hater or not at the very least there should be a disclaimer, IMO.

I gave a shout out already, Kudos that is. But I suspected that some type of assist was used. Valid point about number of waves rode. Paddle or tow/step.

>>>I just hate the thought of not being there for that session, whether taking pics or in the water.<<<I would say there have been better times in the past, in some regard.. but that looked perfect, really, nothing to crazy nothing to small and just throwing lips, Hollow.

BTW, the swell period was up around 13 sec. After going back through the pics, OCMD was/seemed bigger on set but those were tough conditions out there. I would have rather walked 10 to 15 feet out to catch some super round kegs vs long paddle out with current, drift and mostly close outs. However, to edit out the ski in the video leads to the *****ing and hating,... just saying.

 

I want to see the footage of Brian winch
ing in on the purple disposible beer cooler

 

Skeglegs you're alright man, now I know why you and Bill are pals.

 

There you have it. From a paddlers view, there you go. They weren't getting in the way.

At this spot everyone is a family, nobody(that isn't a kook) hates on anyone for anything... Usually

 

Brah if yer dont paddle your a *****. Real men paddle. I paddle because I care what other people think and say. Real mean paddle. Pussies ride jetskis.. Durr theres 40ft waves inthe world duuhh. Where is this Cappe Cod.. pshfff
