Springtime. Shedding the gloves and hoods, and still getting the good north swells. Plus, after enduring the long desolate winter people start to show up and you get some company for a change. I don't know, maybe its just more about getting excited about the town getting going again, but I love spring around here. There is something to be said for the fully geared up winter sessions alone, no doubt, but surfing alone gets boring after awhile. I love to watch other people rip near me, that makes me push it further and deeper.
