Great to hear on the upcoming video.  Cleve's Cove,  great name for this years spot.  Better get editing,  we have some waves coming.

I am a mittens wearer for skiing,  and generally have cold hands.   I bought a pair of ripcurl gloves that are 5mm outside surfaces, 3mm inside.  They have a great seal on the wrist and don't allow water to get in.  Can't believe it but they keep me warm enough and are warmer than the pair of 3mm lobster mitts.   I can't windsurf with the gloves grip wise,  but paddle grip is ok.   Ripcurl flashbomb 5.5/4 is my warm suit and I don't have any mobility issues with it.  Sometimes wear an impact vest (pseudo life jacket) on the outside for more warmth.
Surfing in Rhode Island during winter.

Sessions / Cape cod Zoner fest

« on: September 07, 2020, 07:46:20 AM »

Sat AM was fun on the Cape.  Glass and some waves.  Creek had the solo shot set up.  5 zoners out.   Surfed the close break solo then headed south for some company an hour later when others arrived.   

Rick,  any good footage ?   I shot a few pre sunirse but had to run before I could take any action shots.

Had a great session on Monday morning.  Surfed with a few SUP guys on the less crowded breaks.   Pretty jammed up where the short boarders surf.  Any Zoners out ?

Gates presents he premise that testing is useless without a 24hr turn around of results.   Idea is that until you get your results you are out infecting everybody.  I don't agree.   For most of us in todays predicament;  If you get a fever,  just assume it's corona and stay at home.   The irresponsible people are going to circulate with others no matter what (or not get tested).
  For me, if I get this thing I will see a doctor at the point of needing hospitalization.  I think a high percentage of folks are in the same mind set. 

I own a PC with original Windows OS,  and Office suite that I can not use because Windows now thinks the OS is counterfeit software.  Because of this sort of never ending BS,  I put Gates in the ahole category.  The guy has some agenda's but I don't think Gates is trying to implant microchips in all humans or other crazy stuff.

I am pretty open to hearing conspiracy theories.  Like say Epstein not killing himself.  But things are getting ridiculous.   Woody Harrelson (and others) thinks that 5G in Wuhan is the cause (or made it much worse) of the outbreak.  JP

Pointless thread from the start.   But I do agree with Rbgar's statement.

Friday was too windy to SUP and out of my league at the usual beach.  I told a friend I would shoot if he had the nuts to go out.  Sequence from the camera data shows a 30 second ride on this logo to mast high wave.  Did get a SUP in on sunday AM,  no-one out and a decent wave at PJ light.  Tide was a bit high so some closeouts close to shore but almost by myself.   Day after the big surf is gone is the best with everyone catching up on life and resting.  JP

My best day paddling was Humberto 2 Fridays ago.  RI was really good.  Did get some windsurf and wind sup time with the first two storms as a bonus.

Friday at PJ had great conditions,  I SUP'd the stylemaster at the K early to keep out of the crowd.   Shooting at the lighthouse later tempted me out for another hour.  Some of my best rides ever,  clean and overhead !  Shots from the lighthouse.  JP
