I turned 20 today and had the best birthday session ever, heavyest b-day sesh to date. hope everyone scored!
f*ckin' unbelievable day in OC!...wind was whippin', tubes were spittin'. Didn't catch a whole lot of waves, but got into a couple monsters!
I herd OC inlet was firing with the S swell..further north had some size in the morning at the correct tides, but the main breaks were crowded.
North to South, IRI/both sides nothing. All spots between, nothing. OC inlet only working at Middles. N of P cleaner, but breaking on/closer to the beach, no one at either spot. Went back to mid town, laid on the beach and watched the few/occasional surfer Drift By. You could get about three solid waves per every ten streets if you were good enough, ones that you could come out of that is. of course very few of the very few were making anything anyway. For the most part All I saw was one Long Drift with little to show for the effort. It would have been going off if those ssw/wsw winds did not rape this swell. With the correct winds today would have been going off. I expect little to nothing for the AM.
Nags head, kitty hawk areas, and rodanthe were all firing at certain points today (from first light to no light). So much fun
A certain break to the north in DE was super fun. Size was there, it was lined up nice, and the rides were long.
Yeah, it was macking. 6 - 8 feet no doubt, where I was at was breaking on 1 ft of shore pound. I was trying too hard at first and later decided to just have fun. That's when my session turned on. Shaka to the surfers that had fun today.
I had a great time at nags head today, until the ride home and one the wright memorial bridge the block surf roof rack completely fail and destroyed the 4 boards it was holding, DON'T BUY BLOCK SURF ROOF RACKS unless of course you want your boards destroyed, then go for it. p.s. sorry if i screwed up on the bold and underlining
damn sounds like everywhere but VB was pumping! it was really fun here (3-4ft) for like and hour and a half where the winds went straight offshore and the swell picked up like 2 extra ft. There was some really fun little barrels and rippable waves on the inside. Then, like usual, it went to **** haha
YEah I was going to say, VB was stomach high for about an hour on the First Street cam, but there just wasnt enough swell to deal with that wind. I surfed Wednesday eveing and it was rideable, but not much more than that in terms of good or fun. Granted I hadnt surfed in over a week so I had to get on on it when i could. I would have surfed Thursday morning for sure, but ya know I cant slide out of work for just anything. It sounds like OBX was super fun, I would loved to have been at Logger Head, right before high tide, bet it was throwing over nicely!
I have always thought what would it be like to loose more then 1 board off a roof rack. I can't imagine 4. I bet that was crazy.
