who here has been surfing this week?

Semi clean waist high last night. However, the fog was insane. By the time the sun had set, I couldn't even see the beach. I usually refuse to get out until I catch one last decent wave, but that gave me a creepy vibe and I paddled in.

 

Checked the reefs this AM, but the tide was a little to high and mushing it out. Drove down to the beach and got some good size closeouts. Good swell in the water. Not too many liners, but definitely some thumpers!

 

Today. Was. Awesome!

 

Details sir. It's been pretty blown out here, so some details could ease the pain of no surfing.

 

Killa and I went out for a surf today. Head-overhead high and slightly blown out but we were in shape enough not to mind. Fun waves, in trunks none the less. But man I really miss the cold north with one-day swells. More swell all week. And my panthers are 12-0 so I'm riding high.

 

NH has been flat for a few days now. Thursday morning was nice....waist to shoulder, glassy and nicely shaped waves. Nobody out but me at 6:30AM. Temps were air 35*F, water 50*F--maybe that is why. Had fun and great 2 hour exercise session. Hoping for the same end of this week......

 

Flat here in the Jerz, too, Barry... but the fishing and hunting have been hot. Always good to have other interests...

 

This was Sunday morning. It was much bigger on Saturday, but really crossed up with a dominant WNW in the water and a small SSW.

By Sunday, both swells faded but the WNW was still pumping out some head+ sets. I was mostly surfing where the peak in the picture was and going left. All the guys were a little too deep and the bigger sets weren't the easiest to get around that first section.

Days like this re-enforce my decision to leave the east coast.

 

Waist to chest high Sat. and Sun. here. Little rip but not bad. Pretty clean. Probably still out there today but work will make it impossible for me today. Even managed to get the xmas lights up too. Last couple weekends there have been waves and the water is still relatively warm (60degrees)
.
Props to ya barry for braving that coldarse NH stuff.

 

Last weekend...



This thread is getting long, Peajay started it.

 

REPRESENT!

Dude, late Friday and all Saturday were super fun as well. At least head high. Florida sucks. Don't come here. Only California and the Jerz ever get waves.

Those rides from the outside to shore were quite nice. For instance, my legs were tired. The shape down here is much better than up north IMO when its onshore.

I'm itchin for a Roberts. Anyone who has ridden one knows.

Dude, I surf more than I ever did in VA and I went out all the time. I live further from the beach but the waves and I have one hell of an understanding.

80 water and 80 air in December...FML

 

dang is that the spot we always talk aboot? Last saturday when i hurt my knee? Long island was bigger but that looks way cleaner.

Hopefully December on the Eastcoast will take a big nap, and wake up with a bang in January just in time for me to heal up lol.

 

Yessir, that spot and day of. Glassed off for like an hour that day. Fingers crossed let us pray to Poseidon

 

the other week

 

^^^^wrong pic that's ny during that one storm.this was the othe week

 

where at in NY? my fur lined whet suite is upon way from alterations due this week (was too tight in the crotch area)

 

Small but still fun pm surf session today...ocmd

 

That was a fun weekend. I Was out east further. Good vibes in the water as the timing and weather got everyone out for a farewell to the outer beach for the winter. ACOE dredging shut off the beach to vehicle traffic that monday. Hopefully they sculpt a masterpiece of a sandbar.
SPLs are on the move.. sorry guys, but we will be in your line ups real soon..

 

long period SE swell filled in today in the stomach high range. Glassy conditions, had to drive around before finding a spot that was just peeling off righthander that were perfect for the mini Simmons. where did this pulse come from? I'm loving this fall with all of the sneaker swell days.

 

It's been like groundhog day down here for weeks, overhead swell with hard onshores, only a couple spots surfable everything else blown out, so the one spot has been a zoo. Yesterday it had more north to the wind so it was more better, maybe chest to head high peaks and you could make every wave. Two guys tried to call right, the first time the one guy didn't make the wave, and made me pull back. I laughed at him so he knew not to call any more. The second time it was a 20 something, he yelled right, but I was left of him on the peak and went and almost ran him over. He quit calling out too. Another day another session. Saturday was brutal, every wave ended up crash and burn after two seconds of sketch. But those are the days that get you in shape for the good ones. No better way to hone the duck diving and positioning/timing aspect. Tomorrow it's supposed to clean up a bit but fade as well. Life is good!
