    Default Daytona skim?

    hey i tried to do a forum search for info on breaks in daytona but didnt find much, My family is having a small reunion there in june and i know it will probably be flat summer conditions but are there any decent breaks? I wont have a car but i might be able to take one of my relatives cars for an afternoon.

    You'd be lucky to get the boardshorts wet on those waves.

    It's fun for flatland practice, I mean some skim on your trip is better than no skim. But no chest highs in Daytona.

    Drive to flagler or vilano, on the right tides you can reach some waves. i got lucky one trip, but it was rough

    chrith claimed to ride some knee high liners in daytona

    but i'd say hit up flagler pier (about 20 to 30 min away) or v-town (about an hour away)

    yeah, i stayed at La Playa and got some fun skim in. the further north you go the better chances of skim you will have.
