WTF Mother Nature... FLAT FLAT FLAT! Ive surfed 3x's more

Ayup....it sure does.
My beautiful wife asked me why I am not surfing. I replied because I presently prefer to spend some time with her and I will surf soon enough.
Ya gotta turn the negative into a positive, like, like dude....

 

I guess you guys didn't get out last thursday or friday?

o barry

 

BWHAHAHAHA, good one! I am betting she did not fall for it.

I did get some last Thursday, but I wish it would remain a little more consistent. I don't need 6 foot death barrels, even some 2 to 3 with some occasional bigger sets would be fine!

 

I thought florida was going off for weeks on end just last month?

 

True. She didn't buy it. Unfortunately, she is wayyy smarter than i am. But she did appreciate the effort!!

 

They see right through us! LOL A+ for effort!

 

o barry west winds all day on friday why weren't you at The Wall???

 

I know

o barry

 

We were at our good friends funeral mass and burial.
We lost someone very close to us, unfortunately.
But thanks for asking, man!!

 

Barry I'm sorry to hear that, and for your loss. I got you two friday anyway.

 

We had two weeks up epic surf two weeks ago and now are about to go into the NE windswell pattern for at least the next 7 days. Overhead semi-choppy conditions for monday-Tuesday so I'm stoked, especially after looking at yall's forecasts from OCMD and northward.

 

Yep it sucks. Seems like I was surfing several times a week May-early July. August sucked but then Juaqin and the swells leading up to it were awesome. Nearly three weeks of waves with mostly good wind. I really haven't surfed since except for a ****ty day here and there. At least in the summer the wind is offshore every morning, so all it takes is a little swell and a longboard/groveler. Thigh high and choppy isn't so inviting.

 

Hold up, so are you sayin you don't surf in the winter?

 

surfing season commences on September 21.

 

totally understand...so much more comfortable just to put on all your snow clothes and be whisked up to the top of the mt. We didn't get any snow last year on the west coast, so I'm pretty much starving for some deep powder.

I used to substitute snow for surfing in winter, but decided that's not the best way to go. I'm the same age as you and think we should take advantage of every chance we get to both surf and ski/snowboard throughout winter. Easier on the west coast because our water and air temps don't usually get below 50 F., but I know a lot of people in the northeast do both anyway. Use it or lose it.

 

Yeah, I actually stopped surfing during the winter for a while and just snowboarded. Then I realized I had made a mistake. Also didn't help that my wife (now ex-wife) hated the beach unless were there drinking. Now I surf more during the winter than I snowboard. I am also closer to the water than I am the hills. So that makes the decision easier. I have also surfed for about 10 years longer than I have snowboarded. Damn I am old. LOL
