Good morning world. Friday morning and I’m stoked the week’s almost over. No surf in the forecast but it’s all good. Looks like it’s going to be a sunny one again and I can’t wait. Happy hour’s only 9 hours away. On another note, hurricane season starts in just two days! Yeah, it’s here already and pretty much last till late October (I think). Fun fun! Hopefully we’ll have some surf before the first hurricane heads our way.... Permalink

Well I’ve been pretty busy skinning the WordPress thing. It’s actually pretty cool and very customizable. Hopefully my design will be fully realized and moving over the next couple weeks. In the meantime it’s just going to be under development. Once it’s up it’ll be part blog, part full self promotional website.... Permalink

Overall a pretty good weekend. Seems like I’m a bit “grilled” out but it was definetly a cool relaxing weekend for a change. Friday night was happy hour with Jo and her co-workers down at Nobles. It would be a great place if I was still a smoker but fortunately I’m not. It’s the only place in downtown you can sit in a bar and smoke so the place just reeks of smoke. After that it was off to Roccos for a bite then up to O’Sheas for a finisher. Saturday was a slow start but decided to hit the... Continue Reading

Ok, so after a week of coughing I finally made a doctor’s appointment and headed to Doctor Beck, here in Palm Beach. He gave me some anti-cough syrup and some antibiotics (I think). I can tell you one thing, one of them can knock you on your ass. I took the syrup last night and it’s like being on pain killers or something. Just a little out of it and let me tell you, some f’d up dreams. Yesterday seemed to be the day to get things done around here. Over the weekend a couple rocks smacked my windshield and...

Well it looks like the weekend was pretty flat after Friday. Friday was the last of the local swell and at least I had a chance to hit Palm Beach after work. Three to five feet on the sets and clean, oh so clean faces. The drift subsided and swell kept coming in. I checked out the <a href=“http://evsboca.netfirms.com/dig001.jpg”>Boca cam</a> yesterday just to check how bad it had gotten and I was wondering what lake that actually was. So flat it’s ridiculous. The wind’s out of the west so it’s keeping all of the surf pretty flat. Surfline’s not calling... Continue Reading

Been super busy over the last few days so I apologize for the slow news lately. I can’t seem to find time to get this thing updated. I’m in the middle of a redesign and I’ve got projects galore coming to me from all over. At least I’m not bore I guess, things could be worse. I’ve been doing so much work in fact that my laptop battery finally died on me. Or at least it was in the process of dying on me. Last night I took the lappy into the Apple Store to see if they’d replace it.... Continue Reading

Well, it was big but it was also pretty rough. the shape was good but the drift was so bad that there was no way to get out past the break. I caught one wave in about one hour. Exhausting and at the end of the session I didn’t feel any better. Maybe over the next few days it’ll calm down a bit and still keep some size. Here’s hoping.... Permalink

Looks like the cold front kicked up some wicked swell and now I’ve got 9 hours to wait and hit the beach. Luckily it should remain until around Friday morning which gives me two evenings of fun surf. I’ll try and snap some photos off when I get off of work. Though it’s a little chilly it’s definitely worth getting in the water for this!... Permalink

Last night West Palm Beach was blessed with some nice sized surf. Most sets were in the 5-6 foot range with standout sets in the 8 foot range. West Palm is known for being kind of quick on the drop but it was pretty fun. Caught one barrel, though I was unable to make it out the other side before the whole think caved in on me. Several really fun rides and a few really hard wipeouts. One was so bad I think I actually had a minor concussion. I got home from surfing and had a conversation with Scott... Continue Reading
