    That video depicts some of the fun days that I have experienced along the EC (Outer Banks...never been to Jerz). Going back to the "greatest wave" thread, there are certainly much better waves around the world but getting A frame barrels on the EC is a nice treat IMO.

    Truth, I've always wonderd how a new yorker or jerseyer reads the surf, and if they read the canyon on swell direction and period

    I would love to spend September in New York, it's never going to happen tho.

    In OCMD our south swells don't work unless it's SE or greater. Not counting low energy SSE and S wind swells in the summer. I always see jersey getting lit up with south swell in the spring and our beaches are wonky

    Thanks for posting SUP.

    I'd take hollow waves that size any day over some macking swell.

    Sure do... anything over 10 seconds gets redirected. There's a sort of "shadow" effect along Northern Monmouth County that can be absolutely flat when Southern MC is overhead.

    first off sick vid dsup,first I'm seeing it.thats the lbi crew.

    clownface I seriously doubt ur capabilities in the ocean.dude,seriously man lol I read ur posts like how does a jerseyer read the surf and I'm thinking wtf!!

    square waves dood,u get square waves too in ocmd,actually a lot fukin thicker than we get,real slab type waves down there.has zero to do with continental shelf lol.only thing the shelf does is keep us from getting surf larger than 12'.

    oh buoy

    IDK what all the gripings about. I've got friends from Cali and Australia who live or have lived here and when they caught a classic cold front south swell here all they did was rave about how good the waves get here.
    Yeah it ain't Indo or Hawaii but I personally have been all over the world for extended periods of time and have caught world class spots firing on all cylinders, yet some of my fondest surfing memories have been right here st home.
    That being said, the sand dredging and jetty dismantling has caused many spots, that could handle big southies and created ruler edge 200 yard sandbars, to become nothing but dumping closeouts.
    With the increase of newbs and less spots, its time for this salt to move on.

    Never going to happen? Dude, why knotte? You're a man of the world and I know you can afford it. You just recently spent time in Australia. You go to Hawaii all the time. I know you're going into rehab next week but you should be done with that before September. Just think, if you spent September in New York you wouldn't have to worry aboot that Colin Herlihy guy ruining all your surf sessions in OCMD. That would be suite.

    BTW, you still haven't posted a ride report from your Australia trip. You did surf while you were there (or they're) didn't you?

    Next surf trip is 2 weeks camping in oahu 11 days camping kauai. It's the only logical option

    One time in kauai I did get skunked for 6 days straight but was very pleased with the Bay

    I haven't even hit my middle age surf crisis yet

    Brah you gotta see the bigger picture. I'm not saying I'm overly stoked about my situation location. I would rather have Portugals, Spain or France coastlines. I'm not moving to Cali or HI and I'm not moving to Portugal.

    You want me to click my heals together

    I get feed well in OCMD, I'm not a Gulf or GL surfer or an Israeli surfer. I'm also right on the beach. Could be worse. I stay stoked. I aired a maybe head high choppy wave today. What more can I ask for
