to move up and down
The last few months have not been to successful for me in the way of waves. An ankle injury and some bad timing have kept me out of the water for 4 months straight. The tropical depression that is now named Tropical Storm Beryl was off the coast of Florida and the forecast was looking good. I made a 4 hour drive up to Daytona, and started the search for waves Sunday AM at Sunglow Pier. It was not looking promising. I made my way down toward Melbourne, and scored a 3 hour session. 6 foot, 3 other guys out, and just some fun shaped waves. Nothing to shoot though. Later on I found this little shorey in Vero Beach and linked up with a few locals for a couple of mini tubes.

An old one from May 19, 2010. This was a real good day in New York, and was probably shot 10 miles from the closest surfer, aside from my friend Tommy.

Little tube shot from this morning on the Gulf. You’ll notice the water droplets on the left hand side of the shot. These were inside the housing. I had been making sure the screws were tightened and didn’t realize I snapped one off, so I had a bit of moisture get in. Luckily camera seems to be working fine after a little cleaning.
So far I am 1 for 1 on Hurricane swells this year. Irene went up the coast and caused some damage for my friends up North, but to my surprise cruised past Florida and sent some swell with it. I’ve lived in Fort Myers for about a year now and have been skunked most of the times I venture across to the East Coast looking for waves. The Irene swell proved to be different. After driving across the state Friday night after work, I spent the majority of Saturday surfing, shooting, surfing, shooting and slamming waters as it was about 100 degrees out with the sun blazing all day. I got some really fun waves and after about a year of not shooting much surf, got a water shot ran in Eastern Surf Magazine I’ll be posting some more shots shortly.
