summers almost here!!! but wait...good or bad...sure u can lose those annoying witsuits and enjoy some nice summer temps but thats about it....usuallly swells arent as strong in the summer plus u hav to with the summer crowd..... im startin to get confused about liking summer
Yeh im not liking it either. But one good thing is that if the swell ever is good the torists wont go in the ocean. They get scared.
you gotta love when the tourists tell you its "too big".... and ur like buddy, this is summer on the east-coast.
ahahah this is so true its like shoulder high and people look like you are f****** crazy and youre going to die in a RIP TIDE
it get like waste high and they get scared nevermind shoulder high lol.it does suck when theres no swell tho. good thing i bought a boat this year if all elese fails lets go tubing hah
The bad thing is that sometimes they do go in and have to be saved by me, another surfer, or the lifeguards. I remember 2 or 3 summers ago there was this one day where the storm surge was just too much for me and I didnt go in. I remember reading that a few people drowned in OCMD that day. I thought to myself, I surf all the time and didnt go in because of the strong current...why would a tourist attempt to even consider going in then? The problem is that they are there for a weekend or week and dont know the that the waves/currents etc actually change.
all tourists get scared of the dreaded "rip tide". if i go out somewhere where there is a long paddle out (not so much in nj but on trips to cali) most surfers look for a rip off the jetty to get towed right out to the break. If a tourist gets caught in one I get out the popcorn and watch and laugh as they **** themselves.
