38th ave...
Couldn't find a 38th ave page on this site, but since its part of Pleasure Point I thought I would put my word in here...

I am a local born and raised here in SC, mainly westside but live in Davenport right now. I didn't get into surfing until a year and a half ago just because I have never had the time. I devote 30 hours a week to ballet..(dont laught)

Anyhoo, I was mainly a Cowell's boy. But Cowell's was just too ridiculous. INSANELY crowded, weak wave, and a lot of jerk dicks out there. Advanced and those people who cant surf at all. It was frustrating for someone who was serious, needed some good waves to really be challenged and to learn well on. So my friends Dad told me to go out to 38th where he surfs regularly. I love this place. A MUCH better wave than Cowell's. And the guys out there are so awesome and chill. Even if you drop in on someone on accident like I did, they understand, knew I wasn't looking where I should and I had a good chat with that guy. A lot of the guys really helped me out with some tips and said that they would look forward to seeing me out there more. Sure its a little more kelpy, and a little more dirtier than cowell's, but sitting out there, looking up at the point and chilling with awesome, chill serious guys made me feel more like I was actually surfing than fighting for waves at cowell's and being ripped off by the guys who are too good and should not be surfing at cowell's...

It was a PLEASURE!!!
Was at Pleasure Point with my buddy Travis Saturday 3/1/08. The waves were soooo fun!! 4-5 ft, sunny, and glassy. We were so stoked on the vibe!!
The guys out there were cool and were stoked to share their waves with us... We surfed ourselves silly, while everyone was hootin' each other when we got a good one. Thanks to everyone out that day!!! Props to Matt - local shaper for Pearson Arrow that rips and made us feel right at home!!

Thanx!!! Craig and Travis

schmanta cruz guy
ser. you must be a kook because the locals that i met in my stay out there were some of the coolest guys in the world. showed me around all over the county, chilled, caught surfs all the time whatever. there are dicks everywhere, but you know what the ones that were the biggest dicks weren't even born and raised. haha, just laugh and catch some waves and drink a beer with some locs they are cool.
