Seaside. It was a mess. Indian was cleaner but breaking waaaaay out and I would have been solo.

Have had several successful missions to Shorties and I want to expand my horizons.

Well, you pretty much named the majority of "well-known" spots north of Tillamook. 'Horizon expanding' at this point will probably require more than an OSP post. Good luck...

Yeah, not expecting any free intel. Hell if I ever gave any out.

Anyway, if anyone out there wants to share rides from Portland I'm motivated and have a flexible schedule.

You are now on the FBI's most wanted list for being a spot namer. Just stay away from The Point. LOL

LOL - Yeah I guess it was, but made sense, no malice intended really.

Just moved to the Portland area from St. Augustine Florida, where for some ungodly reason it has become the land
Of the SUP. Trying to find some people out here who still prefer to ride boards that don't need paddles to ride. Oh,
And some consistent swell. Where the f*ck is that? I've got skunked on about four beach trips so far. I'm new to the whole
Driving multiple hours for surf train. And that train blows when you get to the breaks and the waves are dumpy close outs.

Yeah not too many people post on here anymore, plus you picked a pretty crappy time of year as far as first impressions of Oregon surf go. Give it 6-8 weeks...

X-squid It will prob be to big in 6-8 weeks :lol:

St Auggy huh..... why Portland? Are you a techy millennial who moved out to work for a start up?

First off welcome to inland-valley-flat lander maggot life. You are already very much hated. One for moving here and two for being a Portland fuking kook. Expect little to no respect in the water. :lol: Trust me I'm one too and I've been around a while (to long now place is blow out by caliwackers and east coasters)

Yes we have swell, but waves that aren't mushy close outs can be hard to find. Dumpy close outs are actually pretty good cause you can punt one at least. Do you check the forecast buoys before said skunkings?

That said, surfed 4 days in a row last week. Swell hovered in the 6' range the entire time and some insanely glassy conditions at times. Was it good? Well not entirely. Doesn't seem to be a ton of sand bars right now at spots that would warrant good conditons. But one popular spot was pretty fun at the right tides and another was really good but you cant surf there.

Keep trying and pick up some other hobbies (not SUPing) cause thats about what surfing is for most of us around here.

Sounds like we had a similar week last week then, MajLaz. Caught it two days in a row, Thursday evening being really fun. More peaks than people in the water at sunset.

In 6-8 weeks... too big for who? :lol:

Oh shite, just deactivated my facebook account and lo-n-behold my old standby holds true. Basically FB was my source for talking shite and telling lies but I hope this forum will suffice just as well. Just to stir stuff up, how 'bout that photo kook up in Seaside? Had it coming or no?

Welcome back PRA....we kept this baby on life support and then X-Squid dropped a bomb of a video. That guy with his arm in the camera was pushing the line mighty hard and the local definitely came at the camera guy first. Problem is, everybody knows about the spot, we can watch that wave break all day long on the cam. Lost cause in terms of the local trying to keep the wave from being photographed.
