ITS BACK!
well, i have no clue what happened i guess because of the dredgine but the cross is back my friends!! although it is coming back it is still not up to its prior status. the inside still dumps like i said but when we got that big swell from wilma it was breaking big on the outside, its not as far outside as some breaks like the pier but i would stilll classify it as an outside. once you get past the shorebreak dumpers theres a huge channel with no midbreak and then you get ot the sandbar you cant stand up on it though its still lik eprobably chest deep with the deepest parts head deep and the shallowest maybe rib deep. on the first day of the swell, the swell was lke chest to overhead and it was peeling perfect tehre for a prett good ways, then on saturday and sunday it was straight up freight train barrels. it comes out of really deep water and then breaks good on that bar. hopefully it will continue to replinish its sandbars and we can have the cross back just like the good old days.

hmm
the cross is not a good spot at all, the sandbar is extremely deep and it breaks way too far out. it used to be great until ivan but now the sandbars are all messed up. but ill tell you one thing if you are a bodyboarder then you need to go there on a big swell. the waves barely even breakon the outside and then roll all the way in and just slam onto the shore. thick, meaty barrels perfect for bodyboarding about 30 feet from shore. me and some of my friends were tryin to bodysurf on like an overhead day and the shorepound was like chest and we got so pounded. like a mini teahoupoo. and all of you bitches are wrong, the panhandle does get great surf sometimes, for instance a week ago we had a perfect groundswell for 9 days strait and two of those days were a solid head high. the others were like waste to chest. and yance doesnt suck at all. 1996 U.S. longboarding champion. and he was champion a few times back in the 70s and 80s. oh and both of his sons rip especially sterling. who is sponsored by billabong, anarchy, cobian and im a sure a lot more. but anyways if you are a surfer i wouldnt go to the cross at all, find somewhere else, if your a bodyboarder... its your dream come true
