Just made this site last week. Me and my friend run it. https://sites.google.com/site/surfthenortheast/
$hit website...But a bunch of sh!tty websites will eventually lead to a bad one, then a good one, and hopefully a great one!
Dude the pics need to be much better. The photographers finger is showing in one pic, the going over the falls pic is on a 1ft wave so not really over the falls. Also whats up with the future predictions? They seem to be overly analyzed, most real sites will show size forecast and some surface conditions. You guys are already telling everyone how good Saturday is gonna be and what suit to wear like it's happening live and you are standing on the beach watching it. If you want to make a site to show off your pics to friends and family great but leave the forecasting to SI unless you're going to post your own reports based of buoy and other real data instead of just rewording what you read or decipher from other sites.
Relax everyone... He's a kid. The site definitely needs work, but I'm sure you'll learn as you go. FYI - Carter is right. The predictions do seem a bit overanalyzed. I'd leave the guessing out and just post buoy data or the SI report. Good luck!
****ing classic.. that reference is hilarious. Kids don't listen to us follow your dreams. Do what turns you on.
Don't listen to these old cranks...keep it up guys. Take the good advice and run with it, ignore the rest. That's my motto.
Good start, keep working at it, better photos and less surf predictin and you should be good to go, just post the forecast from here and SL and you are covered, use a more professional font on your text, less bubbly and kiddie looking, you know how much Wayne loves the kiddies, you know what i'm sayin? HAHA Keep up the creativeness dude
Have you considered starting a monthy beach sweep or another beach project of some sort? Any project like this would not only help your local beach, but it could boost your site's image/traffic. You could post the date & times on your site, along with pictures of the project in action and the end result. I'm sure the Surfrider Foundation could point you in the right direction. If you call, ask them about their cigarette tubes for beach accesses. That's easy and very manageable. Good luck, RI.
Really nice job, RISurfer. I think you're off to a great start with this...lot's of interesting ideas you could fold into it. I kinda wish we had something like this for the breaks near me. I think it helps to build up the surfing community. Is this your first stab at a website?
