Surfing Waves

Going to be up in Yorkshire this weekend. Never surfed the east coast before.

It always seemed cold and flat in my (admittedly slightly confused and probably ignorant mind)

a) Where is a nice forgiving place to surf (my favourite beaches are saunton sands and sennen)

b) Is there going to be any swell this weekend?

Still pretty balmy up here so still summer suit no boots or gloves

a) Depends where you are in yorkshire. Scarborough area if you like a mellow wave like saunton south bay or filey for a few foot smaller than the main beaches.

b) Yes and should be big enough to get round into the east facing breaks above.

Ye ha I can decise wether to go west or east? its been flat for weeks at the weekend and now I have a decision.

yup count me in for a sesh Im intending on Fri daytime plus at least one weekend sesh,

I can think of a bay Im off to if its big at Cayton (i looking for a nice clean log wave) if anyone fancys it PM me

Yo dudes, hows the surf looking for the scarbrought area? at not clued up with what magic sea weed predicts and what you get, is there still plenty of surf around? I quite fancy filley to get away from the crouds will it be big enuf??

ARSE !!! I KNEW I should have looked as south too, but I had been up and down all weekend and wanted to save on some petrol.

southbay was ok in the mornig phil...a bit of a wait inbetween sets but it was gettin a good shoulder high.....and then all the other sardines jumped in and you couldn't move ...

Alright Bluyan, hows it going long time no hear! the one you walked away from it looks like some were i know? was it in the scarbrough area? or was it a break up runswick way??

neither....



hows you doin johno?

Surfed at Cayton Bay last Wednesday, it was good. I mean I ate it for the first hour at the pumphouse...when it does that closeout dumping thing, but looked perfect from the top. When the tide changed it was 3-4ft on the sets and I made it on my 7'6 Carpet for some of the best rides I have ever had (glad I never gave up after the first hour or so)! Had to take off way quicker than I'm used to, or surfed in for a long time. Got back in in the arvo and spent a good 3 hours between Bunkers and the main break. Got pretty big lol! Had a few 'brown wetsuit' moments!
Going back this friday night/saturday morning, I love the North East
