just like it reads. Hate away. Its all a front. Im the biggest kook in the water. You can find me on a pink funboard with some daisy's painted on it hanging out inside of the the break zone of the best peak in town. I always wear a hat of some sort (cuz we all know im not getting wet) and im the first one on your local shoulder. Rubbing is racing philosophy is definitely applied while surfing, ever heard of a party wave? They are the best! I like to dump my trash cans on the beach because its easiest and I dont have to wait until wednesday for those damn flies to go away. Real men use plastic bags too, thousands of them. I love coastal edge and all of the big box surf shops because they have the best deals on my size 42 boardshorts. Am I missing anything? Oh yeah, i drive a lowered pickup truck with lots of chrome and some massive stickers all over it. My absolute favorite thing to do is call the cops when you get too close to a pier or park in my grass. Some day ill make this surfing crap illegal. (this is all bullsh1t but who cares, go wild)
Great Thread! It's nice to see that someone has a sense of humor, but the sad part is that there is an unbelievable amount of hate spewn on this site. I can't believe the anger depicted on some these posts. And it seems to come from a relatively small handful of people. I don't know, maybe the rest of their lives are so messed up and unfulfilling that the only place they feel in control is when they are in the water wielding their little fiberglass weapons. I know a focus group of one is a dangerous thing, but I just don't see that much to get that mad about when I'm out there. Of course, you won't find me at 1st street or Croatan in the summer, but that's because I don't surf like I used to when I started 40 years ago. Chill out guys and just enjoy the ride!
hear hear Agree with that. Chill out & enjoy the ride. As a sidenote, I have been to VB a few times this summer. Nothing but mellow people in the water, and that goes for the 230 lb longboard dudes as well as the little dudes who catch lots o waves 'cause they weigh 130 pounds soaking wet. This is the east coast of the USA, aka the single-most populated region of North America. Guess what...? You get a lot of people in the ocean as a result. And with hundreds of people surfing in the ocean, there's going to be ability levels all over the chart. You can sit there in your own bile & piss & moan about it or live & let live & be cool. BTW....I used to box, NYC Golden Gloves, and I fought out of the old Gramercy Gym on 14th Street, before they gentrified-cond'd the dump. Anyways, new guys would always show up in the gym, wanting to get into boxing. They absorbed ring time & bag time & trainer time & generally made the gym crowded. But no one in the gym said, hey there's a new guy, let's make fun of him & maybe even beat the s*** out of him. Yet, that's what I see in the water at some places from a select few a**holes. Surfing is strange sometimes...
testosterone does run thick at crowded surf spots. Everyone wants to be a kala alexander or something. Give the local "kooks" some pointers and they will get better. Talk trash (especially in vb) and you might end up in a fight with a spec war guy who rented a surfboard for a day... bad situation. Love your fellow surfers
Hey hey hey. Watch it. Lmao I hate haters man, so many of them out there in the water. Like I said in the 'Va Beach' thread, Friday was the first time since I've been here that everyone was STOKED and pushing each other instead of being twunts.
SOme people take surfing too seriously, but you got to understand it, its because its one of those sports that you can't do whenever you want, and when you can do it, you want to get as much time and waves as possible, im no agro surfer, i refuse to cut people off cus i know how mad i get when it happens, but some people use surfing to calm themselves and relax, while others seem like they surf to take the stress out from their everyday life, and it WILL flow into the lineup. You just got to know who to hang with and who to just ignore, and make surfing what you want it Chyeaa bra (sorry had to)
let me clarify, im not military. Use caution when starting crap with strangers in a town with one of the largest SEAL compounds in the country, is all im saying. Im sure some of those MMA d-bags float too, if they can scare up a bedazzled rash guard and some bj penn trunks. And god knows, they are EVERYWHERE
hey all! i love it when i successfully beat out someone on a wave to the finish line. they sometimes are on the wave before me and i hurry up and try to stand up and cut them off so i can get on the wave as well. its SO MUCH FUN. they usually are poor sports about my victory to the closeout section. i dunno why, but i guess all those surfers just cant respect my victory in the race. since when do we all have to live in a society without basic forms of respect?
you sir, are the man and I respect you greatly for your wonderful habits. especially the part about dumping your trash on the beach, what a great idea!
Oh yeah, no problem. Iv even been taking it at step farther lately, and breaking all of the glass into shards before i dump it. I mean, recycling is for pussies anyhow. I also place my dirty needles under the boardwalk, point up- for your enjoyment. Whats the best thing to do with oil change leftovers? Throw it in a tidal pool, it will be gone in hours. F$*cking magic! @other dude: The UFC fad is hilarious. Every overweight ****head with a xxl tapout graphic tee really sets it off for me. I think the hardest thing in this world is staying on your feet and moving for 3 minutes in a fight- but some of these guys probably break a sweat coordinating their outfits. There are a few real guys out there, who train in their back yards and can go van dam-norris-segal on your ass, but they are rare. pura vida
a google search of "joel tudor mma" yeilds the answer: yes. You better be on your A game in the land of the mongoose, the meth-ed out rippers, dog the bounty hunter, his ridiculous wife. I think you will sooner find me in Kauai, alone with nature. Oahu (north shore especially) is too much of a **** show these days.
