I finally got a chance to head up to Jupiter and visit my buddy Dan and hit the beach and catch a few waves. The surf wasn’t that great but I did catch a few and it felt really good to get back in the water. It was the first real surf trip in the old Jeep. Worked out great! So good to see Dan and his family again. ... Permalink

Finally a tropical storm is on the way and according to the Palm Beach Surf Report we should have some decent surf at the end of the week lasting until Tuesday next week. Surf should be maxing out at around 13 ft and the period between swells is looking good to so hopefully, fingers crossed, we get some surf this weekend. I’ll be keeping an eye on this one for sure over the next week or so. Maybe I can even talk my buddy Dan to come down and surf and better yet, maybe get Ramil to come up from... Continue Reading

At around 4:45 yesterday I checked the Palm Beach live surf cam in the hopes that maybe there was some swell in the water and got a great surprise! Perfect day to head out and catch some waves. Loaded the long board up and booked it to the beach. Perfect 3-5ft refraction swell with beautiful spray from offshore winds. The air temperature was a bit chilly but the water was warm. The long board was the perfect board to catch the wave but it broke a little fast for any long rides down the shoulder. As always it was sooo... Continue Reading

Finally after many months of not surfing I was able to take some time and get back in the water yesterday…and man did if feel good to catch some waves. I’ve been going through some shit lately and I really needed to take some time and enjoy living close to the beach again. Of course it’s always a mission to get the board to the beach without a car but the bicycle works just fine. Yesterday’s surf was a little soft but I’ll take 2-4 ft. any day as long as it’s lining up and rideable. ... Permalink

We’ve got another storm on the horizon that could potentially bring us some additional surf if it doesn’t head into the North Atlantic and dissipate. Right now it’s only measuring 45 mile per hour winds but by Sunday it’ll be off the coast of Puerto Rico with forecasted 115mph winds. I’ll be keeping a close on this one over the next couple weeks. If it takes a turn to the west a few degrees we should all be in for another great weekend of waves. ... Permalink

The weekend held some great surf for us thanks to Hurricane Irene. The hurricane itself basically never really hit the coast at all. We had some bands of heavy rain that lasted for 20 minutes at a time and nothing in between. Friday I cranked out a website in the morning and waited for my buddy D. to get up here from Key West so we can hit the beach in Delray. We met Ramil on the beach around 3 or so and proceeded to paddle out into some huge 12-14 foot surf. It was crazy…it took at least 15... Continue Reading

I just shot this a few minutes ago at the Wall on Palm Beach. Reef Rd. was really firing with double overhead sets and some gnarly wipeouts. Wish I was out there but by the time I checked it, packed up and wheeled my ass out there it’d be dark so I’ll have to sleep and dream of big glassy waves and offshores. Till tomorrow! ... Permalink

It’s beginning to get a bit windy around here. Current winds are only about 18 mph but soon to increase. I just checked StormPulse and it’s just offshore right now about to lay down some serious rain. Half of my neighbors still have crap on their balconies so this could get interesting watching that stuff fly around. Current winds of Hurricane Irene are 115 mph just northeast of Nassau, Bahamas. Right now I’m just hoping it doesn’t move too fast to the north so we can a longer window of swell activity which would hopefully give us both Friday and... Continue Reading
