bwaouahaah

dogs do rule e.

i have a friend who is a priest.
he is convinced that god is actually a golden retriever.

Funny. I figured the niceness crew to be cat lovers.

oooo burn

i like your song. it is quite nice. are you on guitar?

myspace is weird. brian tell us about your latest mexico adventure. you know, we surfers like us a good yarn.

just recently got a puppy dachshund. at 4 months old, she is almost housebroken and able to fetch. she is 4 ibs and not expected to exceed 9ibs. I crack up watching her run/jump through the overgrown grass and eat the flowers.

golden retrievers are brain-dead, emotionally void animals. they don't even know they exist.

Those posts last night.. About nobody ripping OB on bigger days. Although the ratio of ripper-bros is much smaller in our neck of the woods than Hawaii or Southern California, there are still plenty of them around. And the ones that do slaughter it are (usually) pretty humble.

example

Alex..

sick sequence Mexi..

Christian..

But, there are still a lot of people who claim here, there, what they've done, or are going to do. Not just surfers, but any walk of life. A lot of pride I guess, or insecurity?..

And it's funny to hear the people that knock this site for bringing crowds. I don't deny it does, buuuuut.. Has anyone seen the new Surfer? What about Water? Any of us can identify about 5 local shots in those two mags. And surfline had a shot as one of their banners of a local beach too. I don't think this site reaches anywhere close to the amount of people that those publications do.

thanks wand.. yup. that's me on guitar.
Our new band name is Jefferson's Brother (Jbro)

named after Jefferson's little brother who hangs with Spicoli in Fast Times and says things like, "I like sex." and "You can't fix this car Spicoli!"

"I HEARD THEY FLY IN JEFFERSON JUST FOR HOME GAMES,"

Hmmmmmm.
I know who those two guys pictured are. Both arrived in SF in their late 20's and I never see them posting on the niceness blog. But you're examples fall short anyway as the sequence is a small day and the 2nd shot while overhead, is clearly nothing more than an almost closed out drop on a longboard. See the mushy wave in front of it?

I wonder why this didn't make it into the Billabong XXL:

Don't forget ripper Ian!

cool pic of Ian

I dig the tune, e. I think you once made reference to Tommy Guerrero as an influencer. At least I got a little of his sound in yours...

Any shows planned for Jbro?

nice shot ian! anon above claiming that the overhead wave christian is on is just a closeout drop on a longboard by comparing it to the mush ball inside wave has no merit to thier statements due to cluelessness. hey its tuesday.

my vote: individual agents...........

wow "hmmmmm" anon that's one seriously pointy longboard! that really helps your credibility factor in this debate you have chosen to participate in.

I just call it as I see it. If you look at the wave again you will see the tell tale signs of it's un-uniformity.
A rising tide bouncy closing drop to mush. But hey, that's OB. Sure it makes for a nice picture, I mean it's smooth but sorry, claiming for your friend doesn't mean you aren't part of the bragging crew. And you know what? Bragging for what? If this Christian is the one I think it is, I'm pretty sure he never was on the Bud Tour. Bg whup, another anonymous drop at empty lonely OB.

since when can't a long board not be pointy?

nigga said 'Bud tour'..

a long board can be pointy. but a longboard can't. there is a difference which most people who actually surf can appreciate. you'd cut your toes trying to pull a cheater 5 on that thing boyeee!

total overhead closeouts that day for sure, just check the wave on the inside

lol 'still laughing'. And check the wave on the far inside, it shows that it was really only like 2'-3' that day!

haha classic. anon is just trying to get people to post epic pix so someone else can start complaining about photos being posted. everyone knows who's in the wrong

don't feed the trolls

sorry, too much coffee

where does this evidence say that it is the same day? or same set? same tide?
pointy 9 foot boards are long. or are you the type that likes to brag about "I'm a shortboarder"
Who's the guy in the photo? Is it you? Is it fanboy critic? That was a good wave for OB, even a broken clock is right twice a day. But OB ain't the best spot I've ever surfed regularly. And I don't think she cares. Why do you?

agree, OB is usually shitty. strait up. Compared to beachbreaks south of santa cruz, on the central coast, oxnard, orange county and san diego it's total shit and really inconsistent.

i dont think anyone said OB is the best spot ever..

I would never be caught dead standing erect way out on the flats on a nice wave like that.

look at all the anon's coming out of the windmill

Nobodies talking about the big event today?

I paddle out at kirkham and notice there is a few people looking at a dead body. What happened?

The guys clothing did not appear torn or anything that would make you think he is homeless.

It made me feel bad ass to surf ankle high waves infront of a dead guy. Also, there are alot more seals around now. I saw a whale the other day further to north side of the beach. Anyone had any landloard sitings?

hmmmmm.
fanboy critic? i think i'm starting to think we are more in agreement than I originally thought.
yes. he is stalled on a wave that got stood up by the high tide and then flopped over and backed off.
big mushball. reefs rule. sorry OB

i just read the last lines of christian's interview and now i am sitting at my desk crying:

E: You have a beautiful, rambunctious 5 year-old son named Nicolai (Nico). Any fantasies of grooming him to be the next Neco Padaratz?
Christian: Nah! But I do dream about going on surfing trips with him or just sharing the stoke with the little guy on the backyard of some eventual property that I would like to own somewhere here or in Brazil. But who knows? If he turns out to be a ballet dancer, I will be in the first row of any presentation that he takes part proudly applauding his acrobatic moves. As long as he is happy, I am super duper stoked. Love the kid.

well since you obviously need an opponent, let me just say that ob is the best surf spot in the world every day and that all ob surfers are better than anyone else ever anywhere.

a pic is worth a thousand words. keep typing kloo.
and thanks for trying.

SF surfers rule!

Hello dead guy at OB. You guys are too busy bitching at where the better surfers are.

RIP dead guy.

I got out of the water there around 8am and didn't see anything.

(04-25) 11:53 PDT SAN FRANCISCO - A body was discovered on Ocean Beach this morning, and the San Francisco Medical Examiner's office was still on the scene at noon today.

The body was found in the dunes not far from the water, lying facedown, around 8:15 a.m. at Kirkham Street and Great Highway, said Michael Feinstein, spokesman for the National Park Service.

No other details were available about the body's age, sex or other factors, save that it was wearing a hood, nor was there any information about whether there was evidence of foul play.

meritocracy, the buoys were 9ft 20 seconds on the day in Christian's pic, and he was surfing close to low tide....I surfed at dawn that day and there were some sizable sizables...I doubt he made that wave though, it looks to be closing on him, but I'm pretty sure less than 10 people made the paddle-out all day. Dec 7 2002...I think but I remember it because I surfed that day with an out of town ripper who, well, ripped it up. Tide was SUPER SUPER high in the morning (6.5 maybe) and it was still breaking. This occurred a few weeks after that epic Thanksgiving week stretch in 2002, IIRC the bars were still setting up better and better until around Christmas when it was really good and really empty.

it always feels a lot different on the wave than looking at the pictures. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. As for no one ripping it up...SF is not a town of competition pros. If one guy from SF advances one round in the Cold Water Classic it is a good year. It is what it is - the guys surfing big SF are there because they enjoy surfing big SF, not because they are accomplished in competition.

damn, that's crazy. probably walked right past him without noticing. There have been a lot of random people sleeping in the dunes right there lately. Not sure if the dead guy was one of them. There is this one shady character that sleeps there all the time and then will just walk around the dunes for hours. He'll stare you down as you walk by. kinda sketch.

not quite a thousand words but it only took you less than a sentence to write the real jist of your story which is
"I WAS ONE OF 10 OUT THERE!"
I know 10 guy's who would have been douing floaters on that mushball and I don't need a daily site to tell everyone about it.

wo! you know guys that can do floaters on that mushball can you introduce me?!?

gosh, i don't want to feed the trolls, but '1000 words' it seems that you DO need a daily site to tell everyone! and that's ok.

Yeah, that wave is mush and I'm gonna tell you about it and tell you that you shouldn't need a daily site to tell other people about it and I know 10 other guys who can do floaters on mush...but they don't...uh....

"I know 10 guy's who would have been douing floaters on that mushball and

[the best part]

I don't need a daily site to tell everyone about it."

That's kind of ironic. You just did.

Love the people who hate on the blog as daily anon.probably the same guy.lurkers. Little do you know, you are actually part of the blog now.

Saw Yonder Mtn String Band with my hippie cousin. She is from up north of SF. Loved the show, loved the band, loved the heads there. They can pick it good. Bluegrass!

Will listen to your song tonight when I get home E.

C'mon southies!

you can pick apart my words but it's clear you know the truth.
so far you posted up foriegners on not unanimously recognozed epic waves to support your argument that OB and it's surfers are so wonderful. it's ok, go have fun but slow the roll with the epic stories of the epic sessions where you charged and got shacked and about how authentic you are because you repaired a delam on a 20 year old board and are now scooting along on heaving waves as well as bumpy onshore waves like an authentic.

I love south swells too!

oh man. don't even get me started on south swell hypers. talk about a need for attention.

How is the surf in Kansas anyway Meritocracy?

gosh, now I'm starting to think that maybe ob is only sometimes good, and that only some of its surfers are good. way to burst my bubble, man.

I don't need you guys debating me. I am legit as they come.

is that peter mel announcing the trestles body glove surfbout?
the footage is a fine example of how other beaches in CA are always epic, every day.

YO Hb!!

how does it go? the lady's sister had another
kid two weeks ago...let's connect next month...
would you schedule a south for me please.

cheers buddy; glad you liked yonder. they DO rip it up.

Yes 9 foot pointy boards are long, but they are not longboards. If you can't make that distinction you should really go back to surf camp.

the guys surfing big SF are there because they enjoy surfing big SF, not because they are accomplished in competition.

It has always been that way. Even 30 years ago guys were surfing big OB for love of it. Then some guy in the mid 80's lost sight of doing for the sake of doing and tried to bring attention and self gratification to himself with magazine articles. A lot of attention was brought to the city for the next few years then someone thought it was a good idea to bring all the attention to Mavs. The city is better off because of it.

It was all better and is better when people do it just to do it. Go do it!

dude, OB is not that big. it's like 1' out there right now!

really? better get out my pointy nine footer.

Hmmmm.
I see you are still at it? So far we've seen pics of 2 guy's yet the peanut gallery seems to think that their knowledge of long boards, pointy or round makes them someone special.
Break out the pic's of yourself on Dec. 7th 2002 since Go anon so generously told us the famous OB date. Wonder why he didn't get his picture taken? Only 10 guy's out it would seem easy for a photographer to find him.

Hmmmm.
Or do you claim OB but never ride it?

and that's all I have to say about that

so much negativity. sure would love some burning teary eyes about now.

Finally, the news reports had one very telltale note: The instant the girls left …the party disbanded as if the boys had just broken a neighborhood window while playing stick ball in the street! Whether they’d done anything wrong or not, they knew the shit was going to hit the fan!

My take is the case is a waste of the taxpayers’ money. The DA prosecuting is up for re-election and needs to pander to the black vote to get re-elected! So of course he has to prosecute the case! And as for the girl? If you’re dumb enough to hire on to perform for drunken frat boy jocks, you asked for it! And the frat boys? Arrest them for being stupid enough to hire two hoochie mamas for $800 with no promise of sex for the purchase. Dudes! What idiot pays 800 bucks to watch a show? Duh!!!

MY TAKE: 99.99% of girls who work for escort services sell sex for money. Maybe they don’t do it for the service (whatever) but I personally have never met a girl who works for a service who DOESN’T fuck for a living. So chances are…these girls were ho’s. And if they’re working girls, they often have sex with 5 to 10 clients a day - not to mention boyfriends and girlfriends, too. So the fact that there was no DNA match doesn’t surprise me. Girls who are that prolific can have all kinds of cum in their vaginal area. It’s part of the job. Second, escorts can be freaks - or with freaks! And that means they can have rough consensual sex which would leave visual evidence of rough sex - and not necessarily rape.

And then there’s the “You can’t drown a fish” factor. How does a whore yell rape? Well we all know a rape is a rape regardless of who the victim is. But at the same time, what’s one more added to 10,000? And finally…if you’re a black girl going to shake your ass at a white boy frat party, don’t you think that just maybe this would be a gig to avoid? Wouldn’t it be better to go see some old business man in a hotel room?

huh?

she was just pissed no one would toss her salad. mmhhmmmm

LOL knowing what a longboard is doesn't make anyone special. That's the point. Calling a gun a longboard when trying to criticize someone's wave makes you a dumbass. If you don't even know the difference between a longboard and a gun you have no credibility. Get it now blowhard?

oy

Whoa. I didn't mean to instigate such mayhem from my post. I was just pointing out that in my opinion there are a lot of humble, underground rippers, who charge hard, and speak soft along our coastal region. In my opinion it doesn't matter where any of them are from, just that they surf and live for the ocean/beach. That makes anyone a local in my book. And regardless of whether or not Christian made that drop is irrelevant. Look at that wave, it's got a lot of juice. And I for sure would not have taken off where he is, let alone anywhere else, except maybe way off on the shoulder where I would have to kick like I was playing soccer to get into it.

Anyway, sorry. I'll keep my mouth shut on topics like that. I won't compliment good surfers or waves any more.

uuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhnnnnnnnnyyuuuuuuuuuuuuuunnnnnnnnnzzzzzzzzzz

it's 4:20. do you know where your nugs are?

At my site there's a few marginal shots from linda marginal on sunday around 10:00, just as the wind clocked and it turned ugly. In the event you see any of your pals out there.

holy shit. the dead dude at the beach this morning was a hell's angel!

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2006/04/25/MNGPTIEUHP5.DTL

just watched the new Sofia Mulanovich documentary this weekend in newport beach. great story about the family and the path to become world champion as one of a handful of pioneering surfers in Peru. the best part, however, was the local "Bro" comment in the Q and A following the film, a guy who questioned how exposing surfing in Peru is going to create more crowds. Response by Sofia's brother: "The crowds are good, they bring new hope to our country."

really puts all the whining here into perspective.

Damn. I wonder if the dude was whacked to prevent him from being turned in to a states witness once he surrendered? Maybe the Angels are doing an internal cleaning of witnesses.
That would have been a weird situation if our boy E was leaving the water while the dude was whacking the guy.
Yo E. You may have been 15 minutes ahead of a shit storm.

this is america after all.

seriously.. i mean i walked over the dunes at kirkjam at 7:10 and walked back over at Lawstoned with Lerm at around 8. We didn't hear any gun-shots while in the water so maybe it happened during the night at some point?

those dunes are kinda sketch though. fur real.

pretty cool site
http://www.fark.com/

ok.. peace out boys

I'm glad to hear you didn't see nuttin'. And I bet your mother's are glad too.

only 3 men can keep a secret if 2 are dead. Keep your eyes peeled for more OB carnage.

Dead men tell no tales.

That dead guy today....did they find his camera?

I'm pretty trick cause i just broke the old beater single fin in 2 foot waves. OB clearly must be super hard core as it breaks boards on onshore shitty days, so it must be the best spot ever. yeah.

I'm pretty tricky cause i just broke the old beater single fin on 2 foot waves. Wait this must mean that the beach is super hard core as it breaks boards on onshore shitty days and thus it follows that it is the best spot ever. oh yeah I rip too, yeah.....

yeah, that's cool. say it twice for emphasis.

you're a blog kook too!

everyone rips on the internet.

didn't you know?

i surf ob because i live close to it. i don't care if people think it sucks or think that there are no rippers there. on the (extremely) slight chance that it could reduce some crowding i am 100% supportive of anon/meritocracy's campaign to discredit ob. go for it dude!

great words lately e, especially the poetry. cool.

Quit talking about Kelly Cove or I'll stomp you with my Ugg Boots and Pour lookewarm coffee on your castrated body!

Imean prostated body

I mean prostated body

I mean Poste Restante

DON't Come To Kellys!

"Wanna buy some Meth?"

when i say i rip, i mean i don't....

That's really a trip that someone knocked themself off a block from where I lived for 6 years and a place I would sit every morning to wake up with my coffee.

The early morning of the one year anniversary of Sept 11th I watched through the fog, someone write in the sand with a piece of long driftwood "I miss you, Kate". Standing in that same place. No one could see him but me.

Few years before that I pulled a drowned person out of the water on a 3 foot sunny day.

Heavy place.

what's natalie portman got behind the purse?

great hell's angels/nor-cal picture. i feel safer.

The Abrams Report. Dan Abrams went to Duke and was fraternity brother to a lot of lacrosse players, most in fact. He is doing PR for the defense now, full-time.

The two "ho"s were most likely not "ho"s but dancers, you don't hire a ho for 40 guys, you hire a dancer, sometimes two. Usually they show up with a big ugly dude who has a gun to keep everyone playin nice. Apparently not in this case.

At such a party, if the beer is out and the girls are gone, everyone leaves. Its college after all.

As to what really happened? Who knows. Apparently the DA has seen enough to think he needs to prosecute. Which probably means something actually happened....

"Apparently the DA has seen enough to think he needs to prosecute" The DA is prosecuting, because if he doesn't the town will riot!
Everyone is afraid of being called a racist. If theses guys were black and dancers where white this story would have never been so big.

Same old Same ole! Sounds and looks like just another sting on organized crime in America!
One thought would be, does it involve Cola Wars since there are alumni on Boards and Executive Committies? Has some one figured out that stressed out college students and athletes get sexually promiscuous, too or three or more?
