http://www.surfline.com/surf-news/east-coast-spring-swell_69828/ "Hell yea swell is coming" go out in ocean city and its really fun i have a decent time. drive to some other spots but overall id rather stay where i am and surf it while it lasts. then i have to come home and look at this perfection online. So jealous. just give me sandbars like this one time and i will quit surfing forever and be happy. Surfing= Continuous letdowns. until you get that special day that makes it all worth it. (5 times a year tops) **** east coast moving to Indo
quit cher b*tchin, you live in oc maryland. Thats your first problem. Your second problem is you didn't drive down to surf. A lot of other people here had to drool over that too.
wait so you're directing hatred towards a website's pictorial content because you didn't get it epic at home and are to lazy to drive anywhere? southjettybill...is that you?
Jersey is even worse. And call it what it is. You are complaining. That's something you cats from jersey are best at..... well, that and fist pumping
OCMD was fine by any standards on the 23rd.. and 24. I dare say I have a spread of pics that Surfline should have called and asked for, after seeing what they posted already. Why the complaining?,.... the whole eastcoast got waves, some better some worst.
the obx firing like that is just how it happens some times. Sometimes it is better up north however. Hurricane Irene comes to mind immediately; idk how it was in hatteras but in vb it was a complete mess and dropped off so quick there was never a cleanup. saw some pictures of jersey after irene and cringed. im just glad im in vb which is basically in between ocmd and hatteras so its no big deal to go to either.
Jersey isn't even bad lol... sure we can have flat spells but so can every where else. There's usually a wave somewhere, you just have to find it and that's half the fun. I don't need a head high wave to surf.
if you were free on a monday-tuesday-wednesday morning or don't mind a big crowd and choose and get the right wave it was epic,i guess.then there's the rest of us kooks who missed it.up here it was the right place at the right time.a lot of people call overcrowded name spots and/or closeout tubes epic these days.some up here scored.more did not.many say they did after sitting in crowds and/or getting closeouts.
Even on a closout day, if you're good/lucky enough, you can still make a few. And I don't mind that at all. It's a huge adrenaline rush when it's sketchy and heavy and you're barely making it each time. What leaves me hungry... and makes me jealous... is guys who get to surf all day. I hate getting out of the water wanting more. But, as my young friend said to me on Monday, as I was about to cut my session short, "hey... there could be NO waves." And he's right.
Cheer up guys. So you missed the best swell of 2012 so far, but hey, at least you weren't born in the Congo, right?
I mean I'd rather see pictures of what i missed for the three days...but that's coming from a guy that got it real good for an hour before work on Tuesday.
yeah we got this swell now we suffer again for a few more weeks...long distance forecast looks minimal
The sad thing is. Those are basically all throw away shots. Wait till you see the mags... Surfline/ESM (Almost Mag worthy shots.) Just a way to make money off your bad shots. Go look at some of Seth's on TWSurf.
