Anybody hit 1st Beach today?

Across the bridges in southern RI was even better 
Big and glassy at first light. Newport was my 2nd session of the day and good to hang with you boys and enjoy the sun after getting tons of waves and beatings in the morning. Ended the day with a 3 mile flatwater paddle with my better half. Pretty kick-ass Sunday.

Sounds like an awesome day for sure!!!!

Stoney:  Really hope you heal up/recover soonest!!  Look forward to seeing you and others up there this spring/summer and sharing some waves!  <<<<<<MOJO>>>>>>> coming your way!

I'm going to go out this Saturday no matter how I feel. Switching paddle to a wiki blade and xtuf shaft and sporting some new compression socks under my wetsuit. Hopefully enough to make a difference.

That's great news Bob, I hope to see you and a bunch of the zoner crew !! As of this mornings forecast it's looking best for the very early sunrise dawn patrol (less wind), so Mr. Big set your alarm !!

Still looking like fun clean waist-high conditions for tomorrow!  Wish I was gonna be there but will be watching from the surf cam from rainy Annapolis and then heading out to cut 10 acres of grass when the Wx breaks here by noon.

Hope to see some pics and/or a vid!

Have fun all.....ESPECIALLY you Stoney!!!!!!!!!

Warm regards all,

Thanks for the well wishes, they seem to have worked. Despite what looked like a bust on the cams this morning I had a good session. Some fun thigh to waist....took it easy but felt very good overall.

Stoney.....SWEEEEEET!!!  Glad to read you got out!  Hope you had a blast!  I slept like poopy last night as well and woke up early and was checking the cams well before sunrise.  Didn't look great at day break but definitely clean in what appeared to be waist level.  Looked (to me) like to forecast over sold a smidge.....  NONETHELESS, I would have definitely been out and super stoked to hear you got some water time. 

I found myself trying to make up for lost time when I got out a couple of week ago.....I finally had to "check myself" and after a refocus I found myself happy to be out and just enjoying the moment.

As for "checking myself"  I can't think about those two words for a minute without thinking about Mr. Garvey. (aka Mr. Substitute Teacher.  Probably old news but soooooooo friggin funny!)

that you got back on the water and had any sort of sesh says you are back, stoney--and it sounds like you had a decent sesh, in fact--now just keep going--you know how to do that!

i got some decent small waves early saturday, too--60 degrees, raining sweet water

Heading up later this week...hoping for some rides!!!!!

Fri-Sun.  Hope to catch up with some Zoners!

[PDLSFR]

Maybe waist high Saturday.... Fingers crossed for waves !!

[WhatsSUP]

Cool...Thx Derek!  I'll be out regardless (unless totally blown out!) Hope to catch up!

Stoney, please include a photo of yourself in compression socks. Right now your brother has defeated you in fashion. Please do your best to show him up!

Maybe I should wear my coconut bra with them.....

Hit 1st this am for a little Dawn patrol and found some glassy knee/waist waves, lots of fun and only myself, Kayadogg (having fun surfin on his 12'6 Infinity Race Board) and a dude from north shore on his little JP. As usual Mr. Big sleeping late and missed the party (well he was on the road as we where calling it a morning - some of us have to work).

Spring in southern NE arrived as the warm sun felt great while standing on the board waiting for the sets to roll in, I didn't want to leave as my Paddle Surf Therapy session was going too well !!

Just rolled into town as forecast looked super fun for today.  1st is blowing south already with whitecaps.   Wonder what's up over at 2nd(?) looks like there filming along beach with surfers about 200-300 yards down from the rock.   

Derek: I'll be at 1st by 0700 tomorrow if you or anyone else planning an outing !
