who here has been surfing this week?

Just KIlled It all morning till noon and went to make $$$$$$$$.

 

Killed your boyfriend's bunghole & then pimped him out over on the docks.....again??

You're just the baddest shredddah on the right coast, ain't you radda-bing. What a jackass.

 

Sounds like a perfect day, DPSUP.....way to git some. Mitchell, too, up north.

 

I went surfing today. Waves were solid stomach to chest on the sets. Wind was out of the West... too much out of the West. Closing out on every single one, thanks to the tide and the crossed up lil' swells. I was excited for the sunny forecast, but it it just kept hiding behind some f*cking clouds! For some reason, I was colder than the other days this week.

There was eight dudes or so at the one jetty that seemed to be almost working. I think I saw two or three of them catch waves. One dude caught a couple of nice inside-dumping churners. That was about all there was to be had. I committed to two waves, pearled on one and later on ate it in knee high water, decided to call it quits before I damaged something. Then things got interesting.

I got changed and went to Popeyes by the Hammel houses. A woman stormed in and started yapping 'bout her missing phone. She claimed she left it there and accused the girl behind the counter of snatching it ('pray you don't have my phone!'). Sh*t was getting hairy; I left as soon as my chicken was ready.

Ate chicken on the beach and watched a couple dudes paddle into marginally better conditions. I went home.

Good day all in all.

 

Got south end, WB pretty fun this weekend. Sunday was the "big" day. It was probably chest with the occasional bigger. What made it was the inside sandbar, helped it throw a bit. Got a few cover ups, and even a few deep barrels to closeout. Got a good view on a solid one, had my knees barely crouched and my arm over my head, bent a little and I had my palm on the lip as it was breaking over me. Had a blast, surfed for 3 hrs or so.

MLK day got a little leftovers at few islands North of wb. Fun little waist high waves with the occasional stomach. Got tons of fun rides, stalled a lot to be right with the curl. Even got a few shampooings. Took of on a freak stomach high set, faded the take off and then set the rail. Hand in the face to stall, fully crouched, and got me a round little shack. If anyone knows, this wave does not barrel very well, but I managed one. The pier must've been setting it up.

Great weekend for surf, all sunny and clear outside. Hoping for a development Saturday!

 

^^ Could you STFU with naming spots on the internet, please? Thank you.

 

Me or slash? Didn't realize South end WB was some sort of secret...it's basically a college kook fest

 

^^You. But by all means, keep talking about WB.

 

Gotcha...I'll keep some of the less crowded spots "secret"...

 

Damn Slashdog just blew up the Hammel projects.

Sunday was weird here, the wind never got very strong like it was supposed to, and the waves stayed in the waist high range most of the day, then around 2 or 3 the wind started to turn offshore and the swell jumped up. The buoy ended up around 7' @ 8 seconds, kind of lumpy but clean, warmish air but passing rain squalls. Fun.

Yesterday morning I looked at it, just way too much west wind, I went to White Castle instead (new veggie sliders, limited time only). By the time I got home the wind had turned a little north, but it still looked like not that much fun and it was late, so no surf.

 

True, with a little know-how I guess I was a little descriptive. Definitely edited for respect to the locals, I should know where I stand

 

If we're talking post-surf feasting, I ate a super delicious burrito from Tower 7, local cali-mex joint at the beach on Sunday. Nabbed a cajun filet chicken biscuit with bo-rounds and a sweet tea yesterday. No waves today, flat for the week but maybe a log wave around the right tides. Waiting for Saturday so I can make some more memories...

 

Took the log out yesterday. The onshore wind came out of no where. For a while though, got some a number of head dips but the tide made a ledgy, fast breaking wave that took away from any finess on a longboard. The low tide rip definitely reduced the quality of the wave. That was a shame.

After the last 2 sessions on the 187 board, I am fiending for more "solid" surf on this coast. Damn I love to shortboard. I am totally plotting on getting a good fish to bridge the gap between longboard and shorty. A smaller fish that still gets in really early. That will make the warmer months bearable.

 

Hey Peeejay- good job man, thanks for keeping it surf related and following thu, I enjoyed reading the thread!

 

I was out at a secret spot in New Hampster yesterday called T#E W##L... some of the best waves I've had in a LONG time, every 10 minutes or so a set of 4-6 fast moving chest high walls would roll through, well defined peaks and 2 rideable shoulders on virtually every single wave. Super smooth with light offshores helping clean it up even more and sunny ~50 degree air temps made for a thoroughly enjoyable session. A lot of people out (probably 50-70? ) but a super chill friendly non-aggro vibe.

It was one of those days where the waves really "delivered" and I was finally able to take my riding to the next level after sooooo many sessions of "paying my dues" on terrible waves/bad conditions.

I took a couple pics but they were between sets / terrible pictures
