Surf Report 2013

Well if you like double overhead short period swell you could have had all you wanted today at OB. I surfed a few hours alone only catching a couple waves. Lots of work not lots of fun but I really needed to get in the water to clear my head. Today that was good enough. Hope others found a spot maki...

Ocean Beach was fun Sat and Sun late morning. Crowd mid beach was insane, stupid, ridiculous. Oh, how I enjoy yelling at a guy dropping in on me, who I then have to shove off his board as I go by...get the f---k out of the water! A southern walk proved to be rewarding on Sunday and much more relaxin...

OB was spectacular on Tuesday night and almost as good on Wednesday at or about Lawton. I got so many waves on Tue I actually never stoped paddling for over an hour. Best surf I've scored this fall!

Sounds like many of you were out too but no sightings. Still looks good today but small.

thanks K-man. That could work although, I was thinking campervan like a Westfalia:bed,kitchen, etc... I had a campervan in NewZealand and it was great. However, an extra $400 to eat out wouldn't be bad either.

Kauai-- January 26-February 4

Heading to Kauai for some surf, hiking and relaxation January 26-February 4. Traveling solo and would like a campervan but they want big money for the vans +/- $1k for 10 days so I'm also looking into cheap studios and an econobox. Any suggestions from the crew? I was also thinking that I may be wil...

two piece bisecting kneeboard

I'm thinking of a winter project of building a bisecting kneeboard for travel as board fees have just gotten ridiculous. Has anybody here made an attempt at this? I've never seen a bisecting board in person but see online that a few techniques to achieve this goal are being utilized for longboards. ...

Mike, thanks for the info. I'll be there next week and it looks like water temps are around 67 per Surfline. I'm crossing my fingers for swell but warm water and even a modest swell and I would be stoked.

New Jersey visit+ surf?

Hey Jersey Shore Crew, I will be on the Middletown on the North Jesey Shore visiting the girlfriends family for the first time so I'll seriously be in need of a daily surf break. Their home is 5 minutes from Monmouth Beach. I'm planning to bring fins, hand plane and surf-mat as not much swell is pre...
