surfing

skim boarding just ain't surfing - even i know that much!

i love to see skim boarders hit a tiny little bump and then plow a forrow with their nose! HA!

i'll snowboard, sandboard, even skateboard, but no skimboard!

I know what you mean.

How do you know, is there a website that shows you that kind of stuff?

I look at www.mrsurfs.com surf report and go to bouy reports at the bottom. Or I like www.magicseaweed.com and go to gulf coast reports. It is on the way!!!!! I guess we shall soon see if water meets sea wall soon enough...

Some minor action will uncover some walls/tubes. I'll bet some owners are going to get real tired real fast of replacing sand.

He is around 6' tall, a fit 185 #, has plenty of kids and could probably out arm wrestle you.

Bobby, I had to move on. Sorry I missed the bigger waves down there.

I bet RO was doing some "digging" after this fall.

Yikes! Does he have a good since of humor

Yes, I was trying to find my pride

Surf was incredible yesterday at Mexico Beach!!!! Just as good as Costa Rica! I was stunned.

Photo of surf in Mexico Beach!!!! What a blast! Not the best photo but more to follow.

Looks scary to me! Looks like you had a great time. More photos please!

Not really scary because it comes in sets so you are not constantly getting slammed!

HOLY COW!! I can't believe that is Mexico Beach !! :shock:

Does Mexico Beach get more wave action than our area?? If so why?

No they hardly ever get waves. What happens is when it gets too big here to surf like 9+ bouys they get a swell because it is more protected there by an island. I am not sure which island. It may be St. George? You can see it when you are sitting in the water. Anyway, the island absorbs the big winds and current and Mexico Beach gets the leftover. It is awesome!!!! :clap_1:

Those waves in Mexico Beach are huge compared to these in Seaside today.

BUT....where would you really rather be??????

It is protected by St. Joseph's peninsula (Cape San Blas) and only gets surf once you get out from behind the cape.

The wave in SoWal on Monday and Tuesday were pretty nice. Today they were only a few feet but rolling nicely.
