It is not illegal to surf Saltstein!
The official from district environmental authorities had to withdraw their fine when they were questioned about their rights too give surfers fine in an area were politicians from the local community have stated Salstein to be a Surfer and Windsurfer area.

eastcoast surf?

andre spots???
veit at surfere liker å holde spotsene sine for seg selv, men hadde det ikke vært gunstig om man kunne fått ut litt info om eventuelle andre spots på østlandet som kan funke med et brukbart swell? så slipper man kanskje crowden på saltstein hver gang det er brukbare forhold.
ville vel egentlig vært det beste for alle!

seriously...
Anybody considering to go surf Saltstein, beware that this is a one star spot, at it´s absolute best. Even then it´s a fat, meshy and powerless wave. It´s "surfable" say 20 times per year, but that is if you consider supermessy onshore windslob. You can score groundswell in case of a rare hurricane, but still with howling offshore winds it doesn´t clean up. Only reason people surf it, is because it´s the only place you´re close to scoring surf, and the most consistent in the east coast. Tip: when theres a good swell, check out other potential spots. East coast of norway is surfable...

no title
sier ishe at salstein er det beste i Norge, men i hvertfall kan du få litt surf der uten å kjøre for langt fra oslo.Eg tror at det kan sammenlignes med Byberg. At bore kan være så bra som pipeline er bare dritt, bore funker max 10 dager i år, og så er det bare en OK bølge i forhold tal ka finnes utlandet. Men du som skriver det, har du vært i Salstein. Eller utlandet, surfing i Norge er fremdeles dårlig i forhold til Frankrike, Spania, Portugal eller UK.
