  • I learn more at Cocoa Beach than I ever did in my hometown. I started my little surfing idea in the Gulf Coast in Northern Florida. You're not getting a wave unless a storm is coming in. There are no real sets and the wave slam at one time then I found out what a decent wave was. Then I got super jealous of your Pacific guys up in California, Hawaii, Baja. That's a whole different animal.

  • As an Encinitas local, was bummed to see them feature a Carlsbad break when we’ve got so many good ones that are actually in Encinitas. Swamis seems like the obvious choice, but if you want a pro why not get Rob at Seaside? Just weird. Featuring a burrito from a seafood restaurant was also an odd choice when we have so many great taco shops.

  • Sickest thing about this machine is it replicates a real wave so closely! From the take off to how the shape of the wave is created. On freaking point

  • So much for Kelly Slaters "exclusive" Surf camp. Finally a place we're us regular folks can go to surf an artificial wave.
