Winter waves?

Postby namino tsume » Sat Sep 11, 2004 3:22 pm

Ive heard lots of "rumors" about waves being better in the winter.... at least on the east coast. Does anyone know if this is true.... and does anyone know what causes it?

I take it by your location your talking east coast usa... Don't know about that but her ein the UK the East coast tends to pick up more swell han usual becuase of the shift in weather patterns that tend to swing further to the north and in turn are often pushed down the north sea producing swell for the east coast spots.
Water looks like beef soup but then if its good who cares!
