I hope I can survive!

I am moving to a wave poor region of the southeast next week. While the water is considerably warmer than my home, and there's ton's of hot girls, the surf just sucks. It's a very nice area, but sometimes life takes you places that don't suit your lifestyle. Looks like travel is going to be my savior.

I'll be living in Mt. Pleasant, the town just before Charleston. I spent a lot of time there a few years back, so I know what to expect. It's not so much small surf as it is the lack of, they just don't get much swell at all. I guess I'll eventually have to get a longboard as my 5'10" Merrick won't see much action. Oh well, improvise, adapt, and overcome.

today along with yesterday had a good swell in wilmington- of course, VA beach was still 2-3 poor (im such a pessimist :D )

probably still not much compared to where you're from (which is?) but its decent, still get that shortboard out.

o yea, good hurricane season, especially the last, there was one like every week, and the left overs would stay around until the next week.
