Surfing Waves

i am curious to know who all is on the east coast.

i am, north east, new england to be exact.

how are the waves up there? are there any unique breaks? down here it is all beach break and it isnt that good. when i know the waves are going to be good i head down to the outer banks.

well... im not sure what its like down the rest o the coast but up here it is always pretty mushy, small, generally weak waves. however we do get some big ones during hurricanes. the biggest i ever saw was 12 foot faces and even then it was still very mushy. there are a few decent breaks.... theres only one or two point breaks that i know of the rest are all beach breaks. but then again i am only in RI and MA sometimes... i dont know about NH or where else. ive heard that long island has a good break. nothing i would travel from where ever you are from for.

im in virginia beach. yea it is all beach break here. when alex rolled through we had some NICE waves. they were like head high barrels. it was sick. and i went out went the actual storm was hitting and there we probably some 10-12 footers. it was a good time. they were really fast. i have a picture that was on the front page of the paper down here if you want to see it. it is a nice barrel. you can IM me :northendsurfer

wow man that sound sweet.... only once in my life have i seen a real barrel like in person... and that was in charlie.... after i had surfed for 6 hours (myarms were starting to hurt) the waves became sooo nice and solid and head high. i tried to get some barrels but the break was soo fast you almost could not catch them becuase you would nose dive =/.... fun though anyways. but by my 8th hour i was ready to pack it in..... barrels or not.

i hear you on that one. there have been sometimes where i have surfed 8 hours straight. go out for morning patrol and dont go in till the sun goes down. did you want that picture?

Oh right ya...

i live in virginia beach also.i'm still learning but making progess.i'm heading down to first street in about an hour,i'll try not to kook it up to bad :oops: .

I grew up in connecticut but got outta there quick no waves went stait west and don't look back much but recently looked twards puerto rico now thats a spot just wish I kept contact with all those peeps from back in the day there cuz I would probably move there

Right about now were looking at a solid 6 to 8 foot really clean swell, I think that qualifies as surfing conditions...
