Optimistically ConfusicallyFrustramustraded



I think I landed on a crawler.
Some day I will get a chance to do this when I'm not pulling off a closeout.
Danielle was a disappointing swell as far as I can tell oh well!
Let's hope the duke of Earle does mo betta!
"Goodness, I need more surf!"
PS. Thanks to Z for the shots.
P.PS. Shots were from a secret spot.
P.PMS. I need a Midol!

DANIELLE ON ITS WAY TO BECOMING HURRICANE #2 OF THE SEASON WHILE EARL APPEARS TO BE ON DECK TS Danielle is well on its way to becoming a hurricane and should actually make a run at becoming a category three before all is said and done. Conditions appear quite favorable for the most part though not ideal, so rapid intensification is not very likely.


My Masonboro Quiver: 9'3" SubVector, 8' PSH and a shortboard.


Add a couple hundred surf hungry guys.


= GREAT EXCITEMENT


It's still an early forecast but I got a good feelin'.

Dangerous Surf Today


Upside down shot of my surf injury. It's hard to see, it's the size of a dime! I got pounded. Actually my knee pounded the board. Or vise versa. A bell ringer. And my calf cramped I was hit so hard. Funny.


Masonboro at high tide today. Good choppy surf. A local favorite.

Hardly anyone out surfing and sunny waist waves.

My PSH 8' Wide Ripper


Here's my new board and my personal review.
The nose flip works great. The nose or tail rocker OR both make the lift in this board fantastic. What I believe is so much more great is that it sits high in the pocket and generates alot of speed high on the face. Some boards go high and don't go back down. My C4 SubVector takes a lot of muscle to pump the face and does a good job staying down but is hard to lift up the face.
I can see why I that PSH is popular "of course" in Hawaii, it will ride high in the barrels.
