East Coast Surf

[Ottime]

Bigger at wrong sands means bigger at p-town and it organizes thing in there because the swell needs to work so hard to get in there. 7' on the beaches and I'm usually looking for some of my reefs to start working.

[Ottime]

Fuck. Lee is back. Amazing. Y'all are getting hammered with swell. Maria looks like she is gonna charge up the coast.

[Ottime]

Man. The forecast for those two storms looks ideal. Local marine forecast in south Maine next Wednesday looks like local glass. Lee swell should be there Thursday or Friday. Maybe Saturday. Don't know about LI, but Brooklyn has a mild forecast and Maria should be close enough to suck in any bad weather but likely far enough to not be in her wind field. South facing will be pumping by middle of next week. Golly.

lets go!

Old man ear shit? Say that to Nat next time you see him in the water [emoji41]

WHAT?

Hoping to be RI bound for wed-Thurs.

[jackstraw]

Nat Young had ear surgery from the 'too much cold water' thing. Of course, he is pro and spends more time in the water than out probably. [emoji4]

Today was clean and chest with super warm water. Too hot in a 3/2. Lost an ear plug early and bailed. On a plane tomorrow and cannot risk that hell. My ears suck on a good day flying [emoji30]

[alev]

Too bad this week is stupid busy for me. I'll be lucky to get out before Thursday, but will try for Tuesday first light if I can make it

[Ottime]

Make it happen. Ya don't often get a run of surf like this on the east coast. The autumn I lived in southern Maine we got a good swell only 2 or 3 times a month. One good day, sometimes two. Usually milking longboard waves on the third, then it would go flat. Don't get complacent.

Mid week looks very nice for RI.

Someone post pics will ya.

Here are a few from Rog. At least he delivers something.









Geez. It is like I need to go covert and work with the banned to get some stoke on this page. Can't believe they banned the only guy on the east coast that owns a camera that surfs.

[alev]

Fine! Here's a pic! Not me, but of my buddy in Cape Ann mid last week. He sent me another pic of a 1.5OH beach break barrel near Cape Ann but kinda Cape Ann but not technically on Cape Ann that I won't share yet.

[Ottime]

Damn. That looks huge for east coast. Got another one I'll post up later.

Does you buddy not want that tube pic posted? Does the shot give away the location? I've surf SoME and NH for almost a decade and I'd be hard pressed to tell you where the shots I shared are. Just saying. Stoke it stoke

[Ottime]

Another one. Alev, if conditions hold tomorrow morning, this is your spot. Pretty sure this was from sunrise today. Get there tomorrow. Say hello to Rog. He knows all the nooks and crannies in York. He shares. Chat him up and learn them spots.

[alev]

No i'll share, i just need to have him send it to me-he had it on his computer. Just stupid busy with school, work, and traveling down to boston tonight...late start tomorrow so yes, sunrise surf.

That pic of Dylan above is macker. Said he was the only one out for a bit. That spot^ isn't a secret but holds when most places are choppy.

[jackstraw]

Yeah, that wave was pretty heavy!

Ott sounding like a little biatch who is laid up injured or something [emoji32]

Got out this am before the flight. So nice...waist warm clean waves. Ear plugs in place! [emoji106]

No pics cause phone stays in car..ya know! ...Unless my kids are surfing.

[Ottime]

Hey. Play nice. I'm just using my free time to clean this place up. [emoji56]

BTW, it is clear to me this happened due to all the slugs showing up in town. There will be retributions. [emoji12]

[jackstraw]

[emoji3] the slugs!

Still clean tonight. I so don't want to be in phucking TX right now! Be back Weds tho. It's going to be big the end of this week. Probably too big for me. Need to work on that turtle. [emoji41] The first half is easy.

PM me. I'll give you several spots that not much swell gets into.

[alev]

you're right...no time to be complacent! squeezed in a quick session after school and before meetings...found a few fun long mushy rights! giddy up this friday/saturday!

[WaistDeepGroomers]

Got one for ya this morning, Ott!



shoulder-high up in Maine, a little messy but occasionally some real clean rights. Maybe a dozen people out. Can't wait for the next few days in the water!

[alev]

That is stoke! warm water, clean waves, big smiles...good week to be surfing in NE. Dunfeee you usually stick to the Higgins area?

So far, yeah. Really enjoy it there, esp since the sets are more organized than the beach breaks im used to in NH and despite the convenient drive the crowds aren't as bad as down there. Hoping to explore more this weekend though!

[Ottime]

Thanks. Excellent stoke. And I need that. Just had metal put into my ankle. Fucking hurts it does. Let the healing begin.

Here is another one. Secret spot.



Keep on scoring y'all. Living through the stoke and the west coast is no firing right now.

That Higgins shot reminds me of the tide swings in Maine. Love them. And if I recall correctly H is fairly steep for SoME

[alev]

^WHAT THE !!!!

I really try not to get overwhelmed looking at different forecasts...I don't wanna f up and miss out!

SE alaska limit seiner wake?

[jackstraw]

I'm pretty sure Rog sends Ott a text the same time he sends me one!

And the swell continues...

Crop says peak tomorrow and fading on Sat. Wkend is looking perfect for me...except the crowds. Early will be key.

[Ottime]

That is what I would imagine.

Must suck for all you east coasters riding boat wakes right now. Scale is everything.

And those spots I listed won't likely see much in the way of crowds this weekend.
