    My first surf in 2017 this afternoon, damn I had alot of rust on me. Started to feel good about mid session. Looks like a fun week to get backinto the swing of things.

    Got out in so moco. A sea breeze kicked in about 30 min before I paddled out, but it still looked decent. Wind went offshore an hour later. Just me and 3 other guys in a large space between jetties. Real nice chest high lefts reeling off, occaisionally a bigger one. Had to wait and be a touch picky, but fast clean faces. Caught a few fun rights but they were few and far between. Got in nearly 3 hours before my arms failed me. Felt like it was around 60 degrees out, and water doesnt feel that cold to me either. Overall pretty fun Sunday.

    Wow. You got me. A decade or more ago I got caught in a rip and climbed up a jetty rather than get smashed into it. **** happens. Been harboring that one a while haven't ya. Feel better about yourself now? At this stage I'm just happy to make some boards, shoot some pics and surf with my boys.

    2 a day session in 23'er land

    One right before and then during high tide with a 30 minute window of beautiful chest to head bombs. Tide proceeded to fill and wind switched killing it for me.

    Went back later an hour and a half before sun down and got glassy stomach to chest peelers. Pulled into some wicked choobs. Never made it out of any but definitely got some long ones and there were still plenty of waves to carve up.

    Good weekend for the jerz.

    Pkovo - you just described my session to a tee. Did you happen to ask a good-looking guy in the water when the breeze switched onshore? If so thy was me. You were ripping dude!

    clean, shoulder hi by the CB pier in sunny NC Sat morning. small crowd, mostly everbody seemed to have good rides. I had plenty of spills too on the daily driver - 7'2" Angulo, but it was a great way to get the most outta that beach - 30+ rides i'd imagine. i was sparsely running on Dunkin that morning, got in for several hours before i felt the hunger again. Pizza'd out and then went down to a spot recommended by an si fello member. it was after hi tide and the wind picked up. very dicey, but managed to grab several waves before i tumbld and took one to the dome. it was a bleeder so i headed bak to the car, noticed a ding by the nose of the board too. i didn't notice the waves ever get better that wknd, so it wasn't a whole loss. picked up a Wilmington Pride thruster roundtail board 6'2" on the way out of town, looks like a solid chest hi barrel board that i can claim as my shorty in the future

    Wind and swell angle conspired to shut down NoMoCo all morning... but later in the afternoon it got better. Wind went offshore and the tide started filling in, so what was closing out for most of the day started to get more makeable. Not what I hoped it would be, but good enough to get your ya-yas out.

    Wind sucked. Checked a couple places in DE and finally paddled out at IRI. Def nothing to write home about, but still had fun. Seemed like it got a little better as the day went on and the tide filled in. Water wasn't too bad either. Had a girl surfing next to us without a hood or gloves, she said it wasn't too bad. She went over the falls a couple times, I know she was hurtin.

    Is a chest to head high wave a "bomb" now? :confused:

    I think it's relative. When you live in a place where thigh to waist high is the norm I think its safe to call head high a bomb.

    Sounds to me like you didnt surf and have 0 stoke. Instead of posting about a rad session. You come to pick apart mine? Get a life bud. Go catch a few.

    I have been know to refer to a 5 foot wave breaking in shallow water, a bomb. When the white wash explodes 15 feet in the air and you feel it, yeah, to me that was a bomb. But, yeah, I will also refer to a big set a bomb or street cleaner.

    Kanman, no he is realistic, while you are hyped up millennial
    get a clue and some perspective
    some people have traveled and been through more than 2 surf season and knows what bombs are....they might be disappointed to see the term misused

    hes stoked,

    youre just kinda kooky
    not that there is anything wrong with that

    Poor thing. Getting disappointed because someone said bomb. But he's the kook and millennial right? Getting upset over the term bomb is pretty kooky and millennialy.

    If its waist high and a stomach high set comes through....i call it a bomb.

    k bro its a verbal eye roll, you're awfully sensitive

    grow up clown

    its kinda hard to take your 'joke' comment seriously based on your perspective and posts

    on a side note Ive surfed 13/15 days. pretty stoked, had some well overhead waves, but I dont need to call them bombs, as they weren't bombs

    This forum is all about sh!tposting, mockery and having fun

    snowflake, your delicate feelings mean nothing, im not going to pm you, im just going to root you here

    shoots kook!

    Eye roll? What is this teen girls fighting with there mummy? Stank and stink both you guys are real keepers. And I can tell you for sure Kan ain't no snowflake. Stank I have I question for you... why do they blur out *****es and vaginas in Asian porn? How's teaching? I think you've got a lot if pent up frustration because you decided on having a job with zero reward... you're surrounded on a daily basis by snowflakes. You don't ever get to surf... and head high barrels that are 6ft wide because the bar is 2.5-3ft deep are considered bombs by anyone's standard. And I've surfed BOMBS... triple overhead bombs on multiple occasions. Kanman might only be into this 2 seasons... maybe he's kooky but I'm kooky 2 and I've been surfing since I was a kid... he's kooky in the best kind of way it's called STOKE. You would never find him in the lineup dropping in on guys. Never gives stank.. I think the real kook is the one staring at you in the mirror man.. get a life and stop turning this thread into one of your troll excursions. You're a *****.

    so, when I was on the boat in indo, the Aussie guyz kept using the term bombies (or bommies, or bombeez...). It was their term for the indicator waves that would break waaaaaay outside over shallow reef and/or a big ass rock formation that would create a quick peak up and breaking wave then fizzle into the deep water. I always used indicator for waves like that (MIS, you know what I'm saying....there are choke indicator waves around the north shore). Now, I use bommy on the East Coast to describe the large peaks that hit the outside sandbars before rolling in to the beachie and doubles up for the sick and very epic inside screamer. Note, should not be confused with bomb which is what terrorist use to blow sh&t up. But, do we really want to blowup the best thread on the forum arguing over relativity?

    I did not surf today :(
