Absolutely the best cure for a hangover, but the water has to be COLD. Last time I surfed with a beer buzz, ended up doing cartwheels over the jetty. Full suit saved my butt!
I find that surfing with a buzz is similar to other things like golf, billiard games, etc. Between 1-3 beers my performance improves, after that it tapers off pretty quickly.
i dont always get hungover and surf, but when i do, i smoke a **** load of whacky tobacky and it always helps with surfing hungover
Atlantic City bender til 530am. Got the call around 730, @ the beach by 8.(I needed a ride, to drunk to drive) Late summer, decent swell, surfing NC ave. took a left towards the bulkhead, thought I kicked out in time and got cheese grated on the bulkhead. Session over. Solid late summer swell in AC. Raging house party the night before. Thought I could pull off a session, instead I had to pull out my contacts because I was soooo ripped. Layed on the beach and slept. Bros scored fun chest-head high clean surf. Costa Rica '09, went out pickin mushrooms for my birthday. Scored big time and ate a bunch. Later in the day, surfed just south of Playa Grade. 6 friends, no crowd, good head high waves......could have been the most I have ever laughed. Face was sore from smiling the next day. Moral of the story, eat mushrooms, dont drink too much. hahaha
