East or West Whats Best

Postby northswell » Sat Nov 04, 2006 8:02 am

Being an East Coast surfer is hard sometimes but when your blessed with head high clean surf, like we've had over the past couple of weeks, there is nowhere that compares. We all do the Cornwall/Devon thing but its never that good. Don't get me wrong there are some great spots down there, but give me the East Coast Reefs any day! :twisted:

yeah but if your local there you know the spots to go, whereas when you go west you just go to the main spots? we got some pretty flashy reefs down here too :P :P
