NJ has been good for the winter season. However, this past Sunday is was overhead, cracking, 12 deg F with 20 mph off shore winds at Manasquan. My 14 year old is still calling me a sissy for not going out.

What an entertaining thread this has been to read! It's all play within mother Earth's gravity well, it's all good. And I feel compelled to replace surfing with skiing and paddling for those of us who live here in the Rockies, far from the coast.

Yeah Gunkie, thanks.

Ok, since we're all climbers and surfers
(actually, having a hard time calling myself a surfer these days but whatever)

Check this out.
It's pissed me off for years


Ohana Kemp Surfboards has used this blatant ripoff lam
on their "Five and Dime" model for a while now.

Seeing the sticker on my car, at the beach people used to ask me if Five Ten was a longboarding brand....
Then this came along.
Lame.
I always thought their boards were lame too.

You couldn't tell that pic was tilted?

Australia has some interesting critters to look out for when rockclimbing, but looks same-same for surfing. Great white shark and a mans 10 year old son in photo below.


"CANBERRA, Australia -- A 10-year-old surfer has had a close encounter with a photo-bombing shark that shared a wave with him off an Australian beach.

Chris Hasson said Thursday that he was taking photos of his son Eden riding a wave off Samurai Beach at Port Stephens, 180 kilometers (110 miles) north of Sydney, on Tuesday when something unexpected and indistinct caught his eye.

He discovered he had photographed the face of a twisting shark just below the surface with his son on an apparent collision course."

The Mexican President has cancelled his scheduled meeting with Trump in response to Trump's executive order to build the wall.

Trump has announced a 20% tariff on all Mexican imports to fund said wall in violation of NAFTA.

Based on past US/Mexican relationships mired in a downward spiral and the resulting visa and Army checkpoints that pop-up as retaliation- I guess I won't be surfing with my family in Mexico until this settles down.
