I'm from Hull, but go to uni in Newcastle... so when I'm at home, I go to Scarborough (Cayton Bay & South Bay).
I'm hoping to get some surfing done in Tynemouth when I get back after summer : ) I didn't have my own board last year at uni, so I never really had the motivation to get there (also had no one to go with).

Farno- are seaburn and SS good? I mentioned it in another similar post, but when I went to South Shields a month or so ago, it was flat. I wasn't there for surfing, so I didn't think much of it, but since I've heard the place mentioned a few times, I'm beginning to get interested : )

How far south are you moving?

Yeh this is one of the reasons I joined this board. I live in Newcastle, but have never been surfing there (yet), so it would be nice to meet some people to go with, who have a little more local knowledge than I do (which would be easy, as mine = 0)

Cool : )

Would you say Bamburgh and Saltburn were OK places to go to? I've read they're all pretty good to go to, but nothing is better than first hand experience : D

I'm still a bit of a learner, so waves that aren't too scary are good for me!

Cayton showers are better than my shower at home! XD I just wish they weren't on timer... although if they weren't, some people (ie. me) would spend hours in them...

Now we just need showers at South Bay too. I had to wash my hair in a public toilet sink : ( mmmm classy

I don't know about cayton counting as NE! I've always wondered that too.
