Pacific City Freeride Pics

That's pretty cool. Good to see the Crab back in action.

I do what I can........

That stuff the first day looked choppy. Reminds me of Lake Michigan in the fall.
How come I didn't see anyone upside down(on purpose at least)

Probably cause of the 4 guy's rolling they were mostly super far out in the backsets and hard to see.

hey matt was that you drivining a tan mini van on thursday the 19 around 3 just past boardman?

It looked like some orange jet ski was tailgating you. Damn jetskiers:Banane09:

 

[Matt_E]

That would have been me. :biggrin:

I did see someone coming the other way with a covered Superjet on a trailer. Was that you?

Thanks for posting, good stuff.

I have some questions for y'all... do you ride any spots further South?

and is the drive from Florence to Pacific City very far?

I'm asking because my dad has a place in Florence and I'd love to bring the ski and get some rides in with you guys. We usually bring the dirt bikes for some sand action, but it would be great to hit some surf.

Mapquest says 96 miles from Florence to Pacific City via US101.

I don't know of anyone riding further south than Lincoln City, and that spot is good for only a small number of riders.
I know of some Sitdown riders that like Waldport.

nice pics Matt... that lens seems to be working well for you...

Nice to see Swanny and Mark (doc) out there w/ the healed up Crabby...

 

[Matt_E]

It was a really nice get-together with great people.

Nice weather and surf-riding were welcome secondary benefits.

Just in case Swanny or Suva get on here, they need to see this:

yep that was me.....just coming from blowsion. i had them install a scupper and a set of tom21 footholds. Looks great but man oh man my butt is still sore!

Just ordered me an enhancer and a b pipe...still looking at several options to fix the crappy steering. Cool shiny parts are expensive!!!!

X2 that first day looked like some wild stuff. Washing machine style, just what I'm used to...

 

[Matt_E]

Friday and Sunday were terrible.
Saturday wasn't all that great either. Too close together.

But it was decent on the back set. Saturday morning had a slight offshore breeze. The back set was 6-10 feet.

Cool pics...looks like fun.

post some video footage

I'm sure you can find something from the past to show you what nasty surf we have in the Northwest on the website I made for our riding group:

It's occasionally nice but it's more often a washing machine.

Thanks for sharing! Always love to see pics from people riding.

I'm from the Seattle area, I certainly don't miss those gray skies!
