    haha...I said the same **** man. I think he is referring to the 7 prez area. Don't know why he would be calling it scubas though.

    i recommend leaving the spot names generalized... Instead of giving a name nobody knows in order to protect secret spots or whatever.

    there are no secret spots in long branch hahaha well at least not to me i know every inch of it and none are that secret. and what qualifies a secret spot anyways ? i mean anyone could stumble apoon someone elses "secret spot" how do you know everyone doesnt know bout it but they dont go bc its really not taht great. if it was really that good! then everyone would be there. like takanasi. a good break yah but not secretive. just no one goes there

    A secret spot could be right in front of thousands of people's eyes without them ever knowing it. It's not where it is...but when, and how.

    Show me one good consistent spot that's firing all the time and I'll show you a FloRider.

    well i have a spot i sured with my friend at the jetty north of 7 pres. it only broke once that i know of. how it breaks is like the wedge. but only high tide when its deep. the wave breaks on the jetty, then a small one comes around, those two samll ones form together and form into a triangle. its was like a 2 second ride but it was fun.

    i think the secretest spot i'll ever surf i just surfed the other and may never surf again...dead-low tide and winds offshore, backwash breaking on the landside of a sandbar at a pretty common spot that was deserted due to underrated reporting (not Swell'fo's). I was paddling out and felt this big push beachside, got up and rode about 30 yards until I hit a chest-high standing wave on the next bar out, hit the lip frontside and pulled back into the curl and rode down the face, then pearled and bailed. I'm fairly certain that will never happen again.

    Was there a stranger with candy wanting to know about your "secret spots" in your past? That would help explain why you're such an angry person.

    the "stranger" was your mother ...and although years ago my parents taught me not to talk to strangers.... I banged your mom out anyway. She just looked so pitiful standing there on the corner in the rain... I just had to! I am "angry" cause she didn't gargle before she swallowed.

    WOW! The one wave secret spot. You were so lucky to be there.

    I saw JCrax with that old lady. At first I thought it was dumpster diving but then I realized he was just hitting another blown out "secret spot."

    The only secret spot in LB is the one you find as you drive along the 5 miles of Ocean Ave (between North End & Pav Ave) that's breaking nice that day with less than 10 people. That includes "Gaskins," otherwise known as "Beach Plum" or the end of the promanade or whatever else you want to call it.

    Heading south, there's the secret spot at Casinos, then the secret spot at Darlington. They're all secret, though. Don't tell anyone and for God's sake, if you're heading to one of these spots and see a vehicle with sticks on the roof in your rearview mirror, go to the mall to throw them off!
