i have 3 guns. momma bear/papabear/babybear. momma - 8' baby - 7'6" popa - 9'6" out of the three the 7/6 cuts through righteous swells like hot knife/butter.
I donated my gun to a local surfer before I left the west coast. Hopefully it isn't collecting dust. I used it maybe 8 times in 10 years.
Something is brewing just ESE of Bahamas. I see that the wave height came up a notch for this Saturday. Worth watching. And the atlantic invest 91 still looks promising for Development into tropical system

A broad area of low pressure is located a few hundred miles west of the Cape Verde Islands. Shower activity associated with this low has not become any better organized since yesterday, and no tropical cyclone formation is anticipated tonight or Wednesday.

Disorganized showers and thunderstorms over the Bahamas and the adjacent Atlantic are associated with a weak trough. Surface pressures are not falling in the area, and development, if any, will be very slow to occur.

There's pretty good swell here in EMass the next few days and it should tail right into Incest 91L and then the hype train rolls from there.
Yeah... the Northeast is doing alright, depending on the spot. Wish the wind would kick a bit north. Lot's of East in it, could be some drifty, punchy, short period fun. All the Johnny-on-the-spot dudes will be able to make the most out of this one. I'm pulling for 91L to fill out the weekend... I'm buying a ticket! CHOOOO CHOOOOOOO .... ALL ABOARD MOTHER F*CKERS!
Pretty promising looking swell producers for mid week next!! NOAA swell maps based on the GFS model for next Wednesday. 50-60 west is pretty far out to sea for solid swell...but the potential is there! Eduoard and another one right behind it...
yeah it looks like 91L changed it's mind and made a course correction for europe blahhhh. should get some juice from it still but def keeping my eye on the one behind it. also, don't go to AC. there's better spots to hit in nj without having to worrying about derelicts roaming and scavenging the island looking for trouble.

I think this is going to be too far out for anything epic... swell could make it but we might be longboarding it.
its NOT too far out; or, it is....fetch helps then forward speed...dif swell signature from further out. above all, intensity?? me i say the ducks line up.
This is HORRIBLE news for RI! There is a backdoor low coming across the country expected to hit us Directly from 9/15 all the way through to 9/19?! It will be causing Severe East winds, dangerous low tides at exposed point breaks, and an upwelling sending water temps into the 50's. No small craft advisory has been issued yet, but people in New York and Massachusetts are being Strongly advised to stay at home, just this once, and surf where they live. Connecticut is welcome due to being massively lame, but relegated to the Beach Breaks, and New York has been highly recommended- (it's South of you) After extensive research Maritime authorities have come to the conclusion that other states beside RI actually do produce high quality surf in the event of a storm, so it is Indeed still possible to score waves. Yes! That's RAD news! Please be Safe out there! Where you uh, live. And stuff. Godspeed and we'll see you ALL for the next one I'm sure. By 6am. 6 people minimum to a car. Please don't forget your litter and a sense of Entitlement.
