Leaving the Ocean :(

by **LOLRuss** » Sun Sep 07, 2008 1:56 am

I just started getting good rides, and now I'm leaving the ocean for work/family reasons

It will be 6 hours away. I will miss regular surfing, but will still make monthly trips.

I just did the same thing - first time in my life I've lived away from the ocean, and been surfing for 24 years - you'll cope if it's what you have to do.

Just do the journey and enjoy it while you can.

My deepest sympathy for your loss. :cry:

Keep the stoke!

That sucks man. Hopefully you can find something else that will help you fill up that emptiness of surfing.

That really sucks, i just like 15-20min away from the beach and i think that's a drag... it ok the ocean is in you.

same here feels like the ocean is really far away. i hope for those day when i live near the beach, and just wear my wetsuit and run to the shore with my board.

Sorry dude. I just did the same thing. I was an hour and a half or three, now I'm 6 to 7 and a half hours.

It blows. Just find something that gives you the same feeling.

I feel your pain! I was born in the midlands and as such never really got exposed to surfing until I went on holiday to Newquay and pushed my parents into letting me try it (my parents are the devout, conservative religious type) and I got hooked then. Ever since then I've had to travel a minimum of 1 1/2 hours to get somewhere there is surf. I suppose I've never considered moving to the sea because my work is up here but I'd love to be a stones throw to a beach with surf.

Damn dude I missed your move. Where are you?

Boone, NC. Wayyy the hell out here :lol:

Cool place, great weather, fun outdoor stuff, but no waves.
