hahahaha
you guys dont have the slightest clue about localism. Im not even white and paddle straight up to your peak, the point as you call it even though it is just a reef, and back paddle a bunch of bitchy looking people, and catch all kinds of waves.

localism and surfing
localism is just about the biggest bunch of bs that I have ever heard of. I have no idea how a sport that embodies tranquility and a harmonious blend of man and nature can make people turn into such raging assholes. We are all citizens of this planet and nobody has a right to claim these waves like they own them. There is such a thing as respect, but respect is a two way street, respect the locals and those who shred, but also respect others that are new to this experience, respect each other as people. Face it, all surf spots are crowded and more people will continue to crowd the waves.. those are the facts, deal with it! We'll start at the shittier breaks, get better and ride wherever.

That said, this is a bunch of smoke and mirrors with the localism at creek, I surfed on easter sunday. It was crowded and it was my first time on a shortboard, and I had no issues. Got a few looks but whatevs. Most of these guys are in thier mid 20's, driving thier pops old cedez and living at home with surf posters on thier walls.. yeah for highschool! I gave way on the waves I knew I couldn't catch and took the small stuff. Overall everyone was chill

But it was sick, totally glassy and small little rights that were fun.

Salt Creek has and always will be the most localized surf spot in California. Gravels Point is far too radical for you sand break, ankle slappin wannabe's to handle. We recently lost one of the Kings of Gravels....the best and most natural switchfooted ever.
