Fist Fight. In or out of water. East Coast (NorthEast NY or NJ) vs California Bro vs. Hawaiian. Board at work. Go!
East coast wins hands down. I can't rep nor-cal, but I will tell you that californian's in general flee from conflict. You can beg a guy twice you size to throw down and nothing ever happens. Not there aren't some bad asses out there, I can tell you that in situations like that on the east coast, there is a more than happy opponent ready to throw some hands. In CA, not so much... It turns into "Why you all agro bro"???? Love and peace.... So yeah, I think most guys from the mid-atlantic or NE would be more capable to handling themselves.
Yeah.. I bet the DaHui guys would rather just talk it out too.. They don't look ready for a fight or anything in HI
I just recently learned from a california girl that there are three levels of california bro's: The Bro, the Brody, and the Brock. The bro is pretty equivalent to an east coast bro. He wears man tanks and says "bro" a lot. Brody is up a level, commitment wise. This may include stupid tattoo's and haircuts. The Brock of course is the rarest and most alpha. He starts fights upon entry to the club, does not own a tee shirt, if he does he has cut it into a muscle shirt, and has 40" tires on his blacked out truck, and a HUGE NO/SO/WhateverCAL sticker taking up the entire back window. I feel like the NJ shred machine is actually a transplanted Brock. Though, I'd never say that to his face... And the hawaiin, is he a bjj fighter or a meth head? Or both? That would be a hell of a showdown. A proper d*ckhead olympics, if you will. An original Brock, the shredmachine (Brock transplant), and a methed out bjj fighter from da islands. Yes.
The scariest dude I ever met in the water was a local here in NJ. The second scariest dude I ever met in the water was a Puerto Rican... in Atlantic City.
I have this image of a rare breed of NorCal dudes living in the mountains and being massive weed growing felons that are addicted to pain killers and guard their crops with assault rifles, driving big arse pick ups, and only go out when its 15@15 or bigger, indifferent to their proximity to seals and who will rape a great white in the face. I lived in Oregon and I knew a dude like that. Friend of a friend of a friend. Within 3 minutes of meeting him he changed the topic to snuff films. That dude gets my vote.
Da Cocoa Beach Hui are not to be toyed with. Bible Beatdowns on the regs. Nothing like God inspired vengeance. Eddie Rothman would be toast. He'd never make it out to 2nd light without getting cutoff all day err day, and a welcome party at the shoreline would let him know he where he stands in the hardscrabble pecking order known as the CFL mosh pit.
Jesus always wins! Sun up to sun down, waves or no waves. Big things in 2015 ....pieces of the puzzle just falling into place. http://youtu.be/vbQI0qLnVKM
There was a guy named Stewart who was an "enforcer" for secret spot. If there was schitt given to any of the crew, he would paddle over, grab the offender by the ears and head butt him once or twice and paddle away. He never said a word.
Sometimes when there's a lull in the waves, I think, please God, just send me one more wave, and I'll convert to Christianity. In my head, I call it the "Christ Wave," and when it doth appear upon the horizon, I say "Hallelujah"! I feel holy as I paddle into the wave, and upon reaching the shore, I look to the sky and say "Psych. F*ck you Jesus." Go away with your preaching man. Big things happen every year, 2015 will be no different.
NE in general is known for having copious amounts of scrappy folk. It's a Past time I suppose. As for scrappy surfers, can't say I've seen any that would make me blink in the newest hampshire. However, we all carry guns up here, I suppose we know better than to start fights with strangers. For that, I give the crown to the meth addicted hawaiians by default. If you're crazy enough to mainline 'Tina, surf double OH, and fight complete strangers, you'll probably win fair and square or by biting their face off. Don't bring that nonsense up here though (or FL). Get ya etch-e-sketched/yellow taped/outlined in a hurry if you start biting faces. We are polite folk in these parts, no meth induced feeding frenzy. Crazy tweakers.
As for east coast v west coast, in general, east wins all day err day. Granola munching hippies, go eat some dehydrated kale you ****ing f***
Jesus man is that all you got from that? I'd rather have an honest fist fight all day. I don't want to shoot someone. Did you eat lead paint? I'm speaking generally, in NH, it's Ill advised to fight strangers. This is why you don't hear about many issues of violence in NH. Everyone knows better. Very polite society up here. Unspoken truth that 2/3 people around you are packing.
