2:05 gives a clue....but the right at the end throws you off the trail....Timmy Missions did some work up here a while back. Good times.

If you know you know..... only one stretch of beach with that bathymetry between the Columbia River and Cape Blanco. Unfortunately that characteristic makes it a pretty sharky local. One of my all time favs, but never relaxed when I surf it.

Timmy seems to now spend several months a year living on the Oregon coast when most pros are in HI. I've seen him eat up the shifty beachies and he charges slabs at a size I've mind surfed from the car park.

December was damn fun. Living in the past right now cause surf has been evading me this month.

Must have been a while ago cause place has been suckin for a while now.

Yeah per thread title Dec.... calm constant HP meant things had time to settle. Not to mention those east winds make magic out of avg sand piles. I heard thru the doug fir wireless, but was on to 2 nice banks (one all time sand point right hander) closer to home. But you know how it goes, here today gone tom.......

Kinda bummed I didn't hit those spots up. Heard from like 15 people how much those spots in the next locale up were firing. Felt like a lot of people were hyping it up to be cool and in the know. I see now that I probably should have sacrificed at least one session to check it out at least. I opted to surf SB and this other spot that rarely gets surfed. Can't complain though cause everywhere was good. Spent came down and can attest.

Wow 15 peps is a crowd. Prob better off heading south anyways.

Would never hit that spot with 15 dudes on it....ever.
Camped down there all the time back in the mid 90's.

I think Prag said he talked to 15 people about how those spots were doing during that period not that there were 15 people out at any one time. I only ever saw a handful of heads out max.

[pra_ggresion]

Yeah, over the course of that week I heard from a bunch of people how good it was. Over half of them couldn't surf it anyways which made it suspect as to why they were blabbing about it.

[Major Lazer]

Haha funny where this thread has gone overtaking lack of any good Feb reports.

Tex you love Shorites right?? 15 heads would be a quiet day down there....... often shoulder to shoulder from north end to south these days and it often sucks.

Last Tuesday- Had a peak to myself down Shorties and it was pretty damn good. I don't go down there as much these days but glad I did that day.

Off season everyone was at cove and you prob got lucky. Were you not longboarding too? Looked like PC was hucking.

[Spent]

Ah no.
