D2R2, I'm thinking retirement in SD (Mission Beach or thereabouts) in a decade or perhaps less. However, the OBX is embedded in my soul. Used to sneak waves below the lighthouse crew by sitting wide and stroking underneath for the smaller sets. Got yelled at by 'The Viking' more than once; what a dick. Though, haven't seen that guy in a decade. Something about picking your own peak and others finding their own, too. Kind of our east coast Baja with potable water.

Popoyo... off-shore all day everyday this time of year. And you can get those combo swells that are really peaky on the beach breaks. Enjoy and happy birthday!

I took my son and 5 of his friends down to Colorado's a couple of years back. It was amazing! I'd say my second favorite after the Mentawaiis, but I love beach break.
D2- I design the boards on a computer then send the file to a C&C mill shop that cuts the foam to 1/100th of an inch. It's cheating compared to the craftsman that hand shape.

"What month?" June
I believe the months that have marginal winds are October and November, other than that it's offshore most days.

No clue where that wave is although it looks similar to other spots I've surfed down there.
Looks all time!

Does anyone know where this left is? I'd guess somewhere between Boca Barranca and Jaco. That sure looks like Malpais in the background.

The coastline kind of reminds me of the area north of Jaco as well.
I took a boat trip up there and surfed a couple breaks.

Kirra is on-line, going off right now!
According to the Aussie announcers,"The surfers are getting some amazing roids under their belts".
