east beach morning sesh, praying to god its worth it but the forecasts look like the waves will be good the slope is what needs to be ok crossing my fingers

**RexSkimmer** · 07-04-2008, 04:37 PM

bertha may deliver sickness later in the week, im hoping it pulls more north

**Sandskimmernewbie** · 07-04-2008, 07:17 PM

I'll be pissed if I'm in new Hampshire when we get the bulk of the swell.

Surfed today, but I forgot to set my clock for the morning. How was east beach? I ended up surfing at 2nd beach late in the day. So crowded, seaweedy, and pretty mushy but it was clean and waist high so it was still pretty fun. Waves weren't really fighting over so everyone was chill. Pretty good day.

**coleberr** · 07-05-2008, 03:12 PM

East was good the swell was very large when it peaked around 9-930 skimming was alright but it was hard because the slope wasnt enough (length or pitch) for how big the waves were only the little rollers were close enough

**valencia7kp** · 07-06-2008, 06:58 AM

skim monday or tuesday in the cape anyone? What worth going to right now wellfleet, narraganset,etc.?

**daringharry** · 07-06-2008, 07:10 AM

The swell looks pretty flat for us right now. Hopefully that tropical storm will give us some waves.

**RexSkimmer** · 07-06-2008, 01:59 PM

There was no good footage from East. Like he said, it was a tricky situation with the amount of slope. I sponged a lot of the time and got some super fun ones.

**RexSkimmer** · 07-06-2008, 03:06 PM

lastest prediction on bertha has it pretty much heading due north later in the week

**daringharry** · 07-06-2008, 03:14 PM

On this map it looks like it might just bear right of us. but thats the 5 day it could do something totally different.

edit:I went skimming this afternoon it wasn't flat like they said it would be. Pretty much no wind at all. didn't really get any good waves.

**coleberr** · 07-06-2008, 03:53 PM

yeah there is very little good footage in either cape cod video or the RI footy

**valencia7kp** · 07-06-2008, 06:13 PM

**M I K E V** · 07-06-2008, 08:14 PM

I think a lot of us have work = /, rexhame tides are starting to line up for when we get out though and its all sand.

**SeanS** · 07-07-2008, 06:55 AM

**RexSkimmer** · 07-07-2008, 06:35 PM

**valencia7kp** · 07-07-2008, 07:17 PM

**Sandskimmernewbie** · 07-07-2008, 09:33 PM

If we get some swell from Bertha, someone is hitting up Matunuk with me.

Because I can't skim.

hey guys,
August 15th to the 18th is the RVCA Right Coast Tour, anyone down to go with me and skim and catch the RVCA team signing?

**RexSkimmer** · 07-09-2008, 05:09 PM

bertha might get too close to us, they're predicting onshores next week when we should get the bulk of the swell

also rexhame was changing every minute today, so frustrating to skim

**coleberr** · 07-09-2008, 08:54 PM

spontaneous salis trip went down today it was crazy weird we got there and it was blowing hard cross-off shore with deathly green head attacks dropping men left and right; i had a nam flash back cause of it. then the thunderstorms were raging all around us be we were just getting sun showers then everything cleaned up for a bit then it got a little too far to reach for anyone except jimmy. Sets were macking heading back up tomorrow for a proper sesh should be good and filming should occur

**Sandskimmernewbie** · 07-09-2008, 09:12 PM

Did you ever get my text Colbert?

**M I K E V** · 07-09-2008, 09:13 PM

Sals was f'n dirtay today. Rainbows, sun, thunder, pelting rain, pumping waves.

**coleberr** · 07-09-2008, 09:26 PM

naw ssn sorry dude i have text disabled on my phone pm me or call and leave a voice mail if its still valid

**Sandskimmernewbie** · 07-09-2008, 09:45 PM

Ahh, that makes sense. Nah, it was the day that we were supposed to go to East.

**RexSkimmer** · 07-12-2008, 06:46 PM

rex today from ok to epic this evening

at first it was pretty rocky with waist high sets, but by the time it was too dark to skim some waves were reaching chest and the beach got really sandy and built up a ton of slope

the beginnings of bertha are finally reaching us and making for some good skim
