I am sure some of you fellers will disagree with this article. HA http://www.surfertoday.com/surfing/13524-surfing-stoned-why-smoking-weed-is-not-a-good-idea
I have never surfed under the influence and never will. I hate the feeling of intoxication from any source, seems like a waste of the very moments your attempting to enhance.
is that why I still suck? Derr. Need it for the hour ride! In my opinion, as soon as i go under the cold arss water here it usually ruins the buzz anyway and I get focused on not drowning or getting hurt! If your learning to surf, stay clean. If you know how to surf, I'm sure it's like riding a bike! like it or not it's here to stay like alcohol. Which for me speaking is 100 times worse than a few hits! I think alcohol for some is the gateway not weed! Alcohol kills way more! Everyone should know their boundaries! It took me 48 years to get a clue on that! Like I said, some can some can't!
reasons ill do it: below decent conditions, small day, good friends, empty spot I like, nothing planned after surfing Reasons I won't: if it's pumping, if I'm at a new spot, if the crowd is heavy, if I'm in a rush Positives: no hesitation on going or not, ****ty waves become fun, appreciate surroundings more, sometimes I'll surf better Negatives: sometimes I'll surf worse, aggro people kill the fun, sometimes feel colder or more tired than usual
lets make it a competition, i can surf proper until i drink aboot 8 beers. last time i ate edibles ****tt everything was fine till they hit...and oh man i couldnt stand on a 4ft wave. i was driving home at chich and chong speed.
>6ft I won't smoke an hour before, to give the lungs a rest. <6ft a nice one hit in the car before paddle out makes it more groovey. <3ft edibles,shrooms, whatever!
Didn't read the article 'cause it wouldn't change my red and squinty view. To each his own I suppose.
Smoking weed, or any other product, is so yesterday. You guys should move up to be real cool....mainline some smack, horse, etc. And not that namby pamby fentanyl sh1t, but real heroin, white powder - into the spoon, boil, suck up into syringe through cotton, stab a vein and push. Then go surfing. Pot smoking?? Weak, very weak. Now go do what I suggest. Then report back.
The fact that people actually get high before surfing (something I never realized) explains why I hate so many people in the water. Being high is only fun for the high person or his high friend, everyone else is thinking "I hate this guy".
lol zippy I find when I smoke surfing is fun if its not too big but I catch way more waves not high and if I am on the a game
