ok wtf is"victory at sea"?

victory at sea is a term surfers use i believe that describes the chop and saying its to rough to surf.

 

[SkiDaddy]

Yeah, Thursday's looking really good.....:banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

 

[surfjunkie]

reference to a ww2 movie/documentary and the rough ocean conditions depicted in it....so i've been told.

i've just always seen it in surf reports and got used to using it to describe big burly windblown surf.

speaking of Daytona, anyone going today (thurs)? Everyone I know has to work. As much as I'd like to I know better then to go solo. If anyone will be in that area and don't mind a guest at the party let me know where you are launching from.

here is the surf report for today on the east coast.


Oh my God its going off!! This morning we have a huge ENE ground swell at overhead to double overhead to with bigger bombing sets taking everybody out, if your reading this report your missing it. By far the biggest best day of 2006.

 

[WaveDemon]

8:30am - Still nothing rideable.

Now im not sure if I should bring the SJ or the couch to tow-in at Monster hole. I have someone that wants to trade tow-in but I can't seem to find any other "pole ski" riders. Guess I'll wait to see what it looks like when I get out of work at 2ish.

if you are comfortable on your SJ then I'd go that route....bigger ski's arent as maneuverable when you need to move...

we have seen 15-18 foot faces at ponce inlet (thats where everyones going today), and I talked to Nick and he said it was bigger yesterday...



the waves get to be so big you just stare at them

I am comfortable on my SJ to wave ski and some jumping. I wish I was out of work now I would head up to Ponce Inlet. It was bigger yesterday but the wind was blowing onshore all day. It's a no brainer I'm taking the SJ today and forget about lazy surfing. :Banane09:

Thanks for the info Kahuna. But the wife (who is great btw) really wanted me to have contact with someone and have a plan. :17: Like I'm meeting boss and paul and we are launching here. The whole hey boss and paul will be there and i'll just yell there names real loud to find them thing was not gonna fly :frown:
hopefully the next big waves will come on a weekend that way i can take some peeps and meet some of you locals:drive:

 

[surfjunkie]

those who went caught what most are saying was the best surf day in a long while.

wish i could have gone. looked real big and clean.

Scott-
They were good :bigeyes: . There were waves breaking over the bell bouy. One of the biggest days I've seen (besides Wednesday evening when we went out). I just left at lunch time from work and we met everyone at Ponce. I think I need a cane to walk, but I can definately ride tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday.:woot:
I'll post pics tomorrow.
