N WIND 10 TO 15 KT WITH GUSTS TO 20 KT. WIND WAVES 2 FT. NW SWELL 8 FT AT 11 SECONDS.
A comment on yesterday's post:
Recipe for increased numbers of surfers in Oregon:
1. Population growth
2. Wetsuit technology
3. Increased number of surf shops
4. Media coverage
5. growth of "extreme" sports over traditional sports
6. more surfers in water makes others feel safer about getting in the water, thus producing more surfers in the water......
I'd have to agree...additionally:
7. The transplantation of California surfers (me) looking for an affordable and less hectic lifestyle
8. Cheap popout boards
9. Availability of CG to pluck the hapless from the waters
10. It's the fucking greatest thing ever

Hey, that guy is trunking it! I thought the water in Oregon was cold. Now you've really let the cat out of the bag.
oh and pristine beaches nestled in old growth forrests - and lots of good waves too.

That is a doctored photo, no pun intended, that guy is a typical 1st world surfer shoulder hopping the 3rd world locals!! Check their antiquated gear around the waist.
