Where are the ladies in this forum? I am looking for other female surfers (and nice male surfers who have respect for women) to connect with. I am getting a new wetsuit for the winter my 4/3 didn't hold up. Any suggestions? And any ladies out in the water this time of year?
If you tight on cash get a HyperFlex wetsuit you can get a nice 5/4/3 hooded suit for around 225 dollars. They make nice suits and they hold up well.
Classic internet perverts coming out of there hole as soon as someone reveals they might be female, and classic matt johnson plug for hyperflex wetsuits........anymore cliches?
hey there! Hey there! I'm a female surfer, or was (was a surfer, still a female) - but unfortunately I am now land-locked until I finish college in a year. Then I'm headed to a coast, but I've pretty much ruled out returning to the mid-Atlantic because I got really frustrated trying to learn to surf on ankle-breakers or over head-high hurricane swell. I just want a place that gets consistent decent waves. Anyone know of any good locations? Sorry I don't have any advice for you regarding winter wetsuits. I was in OCMD just for the summer and I used an O'Neill springsuit.
Hey there!!! Thats a good question. I wish I knew! Anyone know??? I wanna travel the coast in my car and visit every beach possible. Thats how you discover the good stuff! I thought I was the only who noticed the inconsistency. I feel your pain about being land locked. lol. As for the suit I'm going for an Oneill or Billabong. The ladies here have told me that they have a great fit and keep them warm. Esp Oneill. The Mod and Delux have gotten positive reviews.
Find a different place, but I'll stay in this place that is my perfection. Waves are inconsistent. No you're not the only one who ever notices it. Most times, its not ankle breakers, thats the gulf coast. Its not just head high hurricane swell. Hurricane swell, if its good is much more than head high.
best place ive gone to is S turns in the outer banks. too bad im in jersey and its like 10 hours away. thats the closest to consistency you are gonna get on the east coast i bet. plus its warm, always a plus
It is nice when one of the,.. few Ladies paddles out locally. Not to many, hardly any,.. around the DelMarVa, sorry to say. I might argue the point about conditions on the mid-atlantic. But I think that has more to do with those who surf,.. ALL YEAR ROUND, and those that DO NOT. Since the end of AUG, the DelMarVa has seen a very consistent run of surf. I too have grown weary of some of the issue that plague our quest for surfing action on this coastline. But I remain grateful for what is given.
Yeah at a in OCNJ and Cape May I see a few ladies out . I am all for diversity. If a lady can shredd and take a shot over the falls as good as a guy more power to them
gurls r so cool in da water. unfortunately, i c maybe only 1 gurl out wen its not summer tyme. most of my bros get all rowdy when gurls surf, u no, bc they are so sexy. i like 2 'respect' woman tho. i dont get 'boners' like them in the water. i say surf, bros, thats y we r here, not 2 gawk at play things. but i totally agree with u 2 about how east coast is so 'inconsistent' and no one 'notices'. ive been telling my bros this for years n they just dont care. i stay true 2 myself tho and go on trips down the coast 2. the best surf i find is usually in the gulf. its ez2 learn there. so warm too. as far as a good wetsuit, definitely get a hyperflex. they are true 'surfer' authentic. they keep u so warm in the summer and so much more 'warmer' in the winter. i never see ne1 wearing them, so thats how i no ive found my personal 'brand' 2 perpetuate. i like to be different when i ride my quad fin fish and look for different things to make my personal brand. all my bros agree 2.
krae, im glad u r still a female, that wuld b so weird if u werent n e more!! lolz but ne ways, u r totally a great photographer. if u came bak 2 oc 4 sum reason i'd totally want u 2 take pics of me n my bros throwing wild tail over over some consistent 'ankle-breakers' or 'over head-high hurricane swell'. i lyke wen we wuld take pics in pyramids with bros on top and below me. felt really 'authentic' with bros all over each other, like before we were bros n we wrestled in elementary school/clean fun/not weird. u bring bak that spirit in us. also, i lyked taking pics with friends who were gurls with arms around each other n we smiled n paid 4 pics. felt really 'cool' to perpetuate a personal 'brand' with my picture n girl next to me picture. newayz, b easy, b cool, if u hav n e mor questions, we r really helpful here on the forums.
Go to OBX it is the most consistent wave on the East coast for sure. Many days you can ride waist to chest high waves with good form.
yeah i get mad here in nj one day perfect sets next day its closing out thats why im taking a trip with some buds down the west coast for waves and our friend moved out there he says (san deigo) he never checks the waves just anytime he wants to go out he does cause there always something
