These soft-cock millennial waves break at six foot and immediately start diminishing until they're all frightened and small by the time they get to the sand.

I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
This is incredulous
I'm in Legion's boat and I started surfing in Vicco in 1974
Some over call it, some under call it, but everyone I know uses the Iggy scale or relative to human height, eg. head high, doh, etc.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
So they feel the need to clarify wave measurements by refering to human scale?
Point taken.
The elitist bit really refers to the fact that it is more useful for estimating waves over head high than under head high. Since the vast majority of surfers surf waves under head high most of the time it's not very useful.
Surf today: 1-2......actually 1.

No we fcuken don't mate.
I have estimated waves as being in the 20' plus range and then gone and surfed the fcuken things.
Sure they were about fourteen times overhead, but I believe this qualifies me as an elitist.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
I should buy a lottery ticket today.
I had one of those surfs. sunny mid-morning and I'm surfing super high quality waves......with one other dude.
my normal low wave count, high quality surf turned into a very high wave count, high quality surf.
rode a wave and felt, yep, that's as good as I can go.
then tried to do one of those big Medina lip-line floater thingies on a draining close-out section. Felt my knee buckle and a jolt of pain. That seemed to come out OK.
the got hideously rag-dolled and sliced up on the rocks coming in. At one point, I'm getting dragged backwards out out to sea over the rocks and my foot got wedged in between two rocks. I got it out a micro-second before the next wave slammed into me.
everything seems fine now. Just that bright, sharp pain that being sliced by barnacles brings.

Play on, you would know if you were in trouble, especially at your age.

right knee. front leg. It got compressed and then I was thrown, rather rudely, to the bottom of the sea.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
I would get the ice and a compression bandage on it early. Can't hurt and will speed up recovery if anything is actually wrong.
