Title: Longboard and alarm clock
Post by: surfinJ on August 07, 2020, 11:46:35 PM

So this is what’s needed to beat the anti-surf conspiracy of small summer swell,
morning high tide and the afternoon onshore blow out.

Cool video, that's always been what I love about SUP surfing--it's pretty much always good. You can surf a race board and have fun in waves you can barely see before they hit the reef. Foil surfing is more and less than SUP. More because a mushy little nothing can be silly fun worth driving to, less because you can't do it just anywhere, the bottom needs to be friendly, the takeoff needs to be deep enough, kelp or grass stops you like an anchor, and if anything will make a SUP board feel like it's welcome anywhere, it's foiling.

Fun video SurfinJ. Love the silly music. It's been some sad surf for us here in SoCal too. BUT!  Surfline says relief is on it's way. My stoke reserves have been getting very low :(

They better not be lying!
