OMG!!!!!!!  The humanity!!!

Even if I wanted to go my schedule wouldn't allow it. 4:00, wallow in self pity; 4:30, stare into the abyss; 5:00, solve world hunger, tell no one; 5:30, jazzercize; 6:30, dinner with me - I can't cancel that again; 7:00, wrestle with my self-loathing... I'm booked. Of course, if I bump the loathing to 9, I could still be done in time to lay in bed, stare at the ceiling and slip slowly into madness. But what would I wear?

Freakin A.......beautiful!!!

Hahaha. First was totally out of control, not rideable except for proners jumping off the cliff. Nantucket Shoals buoy 14 feet. Got a txt advising I abort my mission and I did!

Been watching the cams the last couple of days and its been looking super fun!  Pretty shot (sans waves) this am.

I can imagine how cool it is to surf in a good heavy snow fall........minus wind of course (???)  I suspect you guys may experience this towards the end of the week!  Sounds like a good one has a chance of whacking the mid-Atlantic and Northeast!

First was solid yesterday. Hanging with a Yakmeister who ripped over towards Hooterville. Big fun on the Monsterpiece - King's 9'4" SS Especial.

Eastie, when and where were you? I got caught on the Northeast Surf Cam again!

PDLSFR scared the crap out of me when he pulled up. No shocks though!

OBTW the Nantucket Shoals Buoy peaked at 18 feet..

Saturday was big and clean where I was. Hurricane size. Some waves well over 10'. No idea where that came from. Actually pretty horrifying to me. I know know why the west coast dudes are all about the floatation. Yesterday morning's leftovers were half the size but sweet and clean. Two great days before it got cold last night. Now it's winter.

I'll be heading back up to Lil Rhody in a couple of weeks for several days and would REALLY like to sneak out but thickest suit I have is a 4/3 O'Neil Heat (brand new - still a virgin)....I've got 5mm booties and 3mm gloves...no hood (yet).  Is it crazy/unsafe to venture out in a suit of this size (thickness) in w/ water temps in the high 30's-40(F)???  Thanks!

Hey bud, I'm still in my 4/3 suit as water temp is still low 40's, you'll be fine as long as the weather here stays as it's been (mid 40's and warmer all next week).

Whatzzz^
Heck no.... that's all I ever wear :)

4/3 is fine.... you just might get cold after a few hours, but not foolhardy at all.... except for the no hood part.

Get a rashguard with attached hood to wear under your 4/3.... it essentially makes in a 5MM suit!
Without a hood.... you will freeze ;D

Get the thickest rashguard, with attached hood that you can.
oh yeah.....A hood that is not attached to a rashgruard, is pretty useless.
Enjoy!

Perfect!  Understood, heavier rash guard w/hood....Thanks Guys!

I was trolling the NE cams today and someone (I wonder if it was StoneAxe) was out with a proner at 1st Beach....looked SUPER fun.  Watched these two for 10-15 mins via refresh on the Cam Two link and saw some fun rides!  Minimal wind and looked to be 2-3'.  My kind of day!
