    Look at these guys trying to surf this totally disorganized onshore garbage today at an east facing break with gusts out of the NE at 35 knots. lmao They gave up after about 15 minutes and not catching any waves and left the water. Would you go? haha

    who cares

    Who cares if they aren't Slater & Irons...they went out & tried. Props to them.

    On another positive note, Micah, it looks from your forecast like the boyz up north are going to get the best service from sweet Danielle. Montauk, Rockaway, Nantucket ... that light wind & the direction will help clean it up for them, yes?

    I should be getting on a plane for the north, not driving to VB on the parking lot known as I-95 this wknd...

    I'm not ragging on them. I just thought it was funny. No matter what the conditions or weather that place is packed. I've seen literally 40 guys in the lineup when it gets descent and this is outside of summer and I'm not talking about an epic swell, just descent.
