    I for one am saddened by the Pavlovian response to corporate shenanigans and IT gigglesniffers by all the crusty “old guard” Swellies over their colored Binky getting lost behind the couch - MAN UP!!!(and WOman up if your Betty!) pull up your jammies and stop sniffling! You’ve forgotten the Faces of your Father’s!! (Or the faces of the last wave you surfed)
    This is a surfing FORUMMME where sound medical advice, mental and spiritual healing words (except from that heathen OB) and lies about how big the barrel was we sorta surfed are the nectar of the gods! Break out of the trance...

    Was gonna post a doctored up pic of that Mad Magazine cover with the dog and the gun and the by line about buying the mag or shooting the dog - but I like not being banned ... so go find it yourselves hahaha

    Water has finally warmed up around here...to 58 degrees. Still 2'@7 secs though, which is not enough to create a rideable wave, and winds have continued to be fairly strong onshore every day for almost a month now.

    But it looks like we've got something headed this way by the middle of next week in the form of 2'@22 secs out of the South, a great direction. Winds don't look to cooperate much, but fuck it I haven't surfed in at least a month or so, so I'm gonna try and give it a go. Not sure but I think my arm has healed enough to fudge it up gently out there.

    Dear Swell info

    I agree, the stoke factor is low- and the flatness is not helping... plus we have all been living in the gray for the past few weeks...

    on the other hand, I am slightly stoked since I just picked up 2 new borts! amazing boards and deal! But boards suited for bigger waves...

    Sorry guys... its reallllly gonna be flat for a while now...

    If you really need to surf- just remember its always firing at the BELMAR! and the water is always warm! And you can go to Djais after surfing 23ft waves and hang with the locals...

    Your pal
    Mr Belmar

    I love that kind of swell. 2' at 16+ period has produced some of my most memorable west coast days.

    There's only so much fishing and drinking a fella can do. I get done work at 11 tonight. When I get home (to our house in PA) I'm going to teach my youngest son the fine art of pool hopping. I know, I know, a lot people of security web cams and stuff. We've got that covered. He has some Mexican wrestling masks (think Nacho Libre) so no one can identify us.

    ^dude, bringing back some memories of late 80s summer nights and pool hopping.

    It was always bitter sweet trying to get the girls to climb over the fence....

    Yeah. There’s usually something promising with those kinds of numbers.

    Throw in a decent offshore with some medium to chub tides and it starts getting magical.

    yeah, my son wants to bring along a can of spray paint and leave his tag at each pool. I had to shut that idea down. I mean, we're not Vandals. We're more like Visigoths.

    I guess you could still hear the lamentations of their women if you guys peed in the pool, instead.

    Based on a forecaste I got off another site, I'm gonna get some waves tomorrow!

    Will be some ankle slappers but some slide on a Saturday morning is always appreciated.

    Hope everyone gets wet this weekend!

    That’s what I like to see buoys! A pulse! NNYNJ - you need to go to Gilgo and meet up with me N Brookie and BassMon some time, it would be a blast to surf and hang Bro’
    Stoke for days with THAT crew I can promise you. Mayhap get KanMan in on the fun too... I inadvertently met Slashdog and his Lady last weekend and they were awesome. Great vibe and stoke and he was particularly nice to my daughter a few times and made a big impression. Girlfriend was nothing but smiles and laughing too.
    If I had the money and the time I’d make the effort to meet a lot more of you out on the waters - it’s amazing how different but DECENT you all seem to be.
    Right up until one of you is Dahmers protege’ hahahahaha

    Dude, i absolutely love Dahmer. Read his pops book, it was pretty damn good. But yeah, Dahmer is one of my favorite serial killers. I got a thing for killers who keep body parts in the fridge
