    While there wasnt anything HH, east swell a-frames is what we got on delmarva over the weekend. Lots of lefts. Sunday morning was very good for a while until a sea breeze came up late morning.

    Completely surfed out. At the beach from 630-500 yesterday. Full tent, cooler, supplies, and several boards. Chest high with off shores almost all day long. Tough to top days like yesterday. NOW GET TO WORK!

    Outer banks saw some head high plus surf yesterday....NW winds kept from getting really good. But did catch a few before heading Buxton for the evening sesh at the lighthouse....much smaller lefts running down the beach but fun. This morning had some fun leftovers...nice clean offshore, which was short lived.

    All in all, decent swell. The wind prediction was totally ofF for Sunday. SI and the Weather Channel had West>SW less then 5mph theN going to SE late. It blew NW a good 10-15 until late in the day when light SE came. It seems that frontal boundary stalled out more then the models predicted.

    It was nothing too special. But to Brad's point, it sure felt like Spring, and I am OK with that. I kept my hood on though. Word on the street is that Northern MoCo was a little better yesterday. I surfed for about an hour and a half on Sat and Sunday in Belmar and got a few good ones...Lefts too which is a bonus.

    what day are u people talking about.i went out both Saturday and sunday and it was far from good.there were waves,just real sectiony and a helluva lot of closeouts.mostly all closeouts.i don't think I witnessed one wave break good and that's from sea bright to loch arbour.weather was fine tho.

    whats up with this "surfed out" thing going around.does that mean you have noodle arms or u had ur best surf of all time?im not following the lingo.a few surfs shouldn't throw you out of shape

    Well it sounds like some mix of opinions here, after that gnarly winter it felt awesome to put on a 4/3 with no hood and loose my hood tan. Anything over shoulder high in the temps we have goin gives me a woody. Cheers to that swell and on to the next!!!!

    I am not negative, just used to flatness here. Even the clean knee high days have been crap lately. Too many short shallow breaks. Hard to stay in paddling shape with so few decent days.

    I didn't surf up north. I stayed closer to home in Belmar. If you were patient, there were some lumpy lefts that were fun in the chest high range...some a little bigger than that actually. Like I said, nothing too special, but worth a paddle-out. I wasn't surfed-out...I got too much other sh** to take care of on weekends besides surfing myself out in wind slop. Oh, and i think the term "surfed-out" means you surfed so much and busted your nut putting a lot of hours in the water in that you're exhausted and need a beer/nap.
