I live about 10 minutes from the beach and go just about every weekend, yet amazingly ive never bothered to take up surfing. The waves just suck too much on the east coast as mentioned. I see the surfers there just sitting on their boards for upwards of 15-20 minutes at a time waiting for that 1 wave that actually has some potential... and even then they all just fizzle out. | ||

I use a Santa Cruise board, pretty old, about 7", and a long board somewhere around 8 1/2 feet, can't remember the maker. I've become rather timid due to a near drowning incident, but I still love the sport very much and get out whenever I can to enjoy the 3-4 footers. That's funny about the wetsuit thing, OP: in OR you can't stay in the water for more than like 5 minutes without a wetsuit. Most of us have gloves, booties, and a hood as well as a full-body suit. So I don't want to hear it! Lol. | ||
