localism is lame - i get skunked a lot trying to surf the straits, and last time i was there i too got vibed, yelled at, dropped in on at the elwha. i hear it's been going down a lot more up there and it's not cool. it won't keep me out of the water, anyone tries anything, i'll call the cops, we got rights in our great country.

Funny about the elwha - I've surfed there numerous times (non-local) and I've seen that guy and he or his friends have never said a word to me, in fact I doubt they've ever even noticed me. I stay lo key, quiet, get my waves, stay outta the way, and keep a smile on my face and I've had no problems. Even the most hardened locals these days know they can't stop everyone so as long as you don't give them a reason, they'll leave you alone and go after the drop-in kook outta towners.

Jeff can't keep me from brown point, I'm native, he's not. - I was born and raised in washington. My brother and I love the outdoor lifestyle we've lived. I recall falling into our outhouse hole when I was about 5. Straight up backwoods livin'. I found surfing at about 20 years old and have grown very passionate for it. 8 years later it still proves to call me to the water. I love surfing. I'll be the guy blowin' snot rockets in the line up, burning all the biggest beach logs I can drag to the fire, and drinking beer all to the music in my head of my brothers' newest song he's written; Girls with chubby legs shouldn't wear UGG boots.

go home - the one thing that I know about washington is they will give me a gun permit no problem, so that way I can holster my waterproof glock when I ride. Born and raised in snohomish county, where we still speak english instead of mexican.

Nice point well taken - I am so glad someone with some attitude is finally speaking up for WA surfers. I am so tired of the complaining that goes on here on this site. Notice that there has been no traffic lately? Gee, wonder if everyone got board or just got smarter? By the way, any one heard from Doc Phil lately? I do miss that guy, he is pretty funny. And as far as the girls in WA, I think they kick ass to tough out the extreme cold temps and currents here on the Oly Pen weather they are great surfers or just beginning. Surf on ladies. See ya in the line up.

Cali is full of haters... - I will say, yes, California breeds tons of great surfers, but don't use that as an excuse to rip on WA. I don't know if you understand, but you have to bust ass to get some decent waves up here. We go out in the snow if it's good, because it's there. We spend way more on wetsuits to stay warm in the colder water. The tides have a dramatic effect on the conditions, and they can turn on or off in minutes. Most people have to take a ferry or drive 3 hours to even get out. Shit, I'll surf ankle high if I have to, I'm not driving home without getting in the water. So, no dawn patrol or 5 minute strolls down to the beach for a lot of us; and consistant waves are not as plentiful.

And don't stereotype all the ladies here as bull dykes, because they could probably kick your ass, and leave you smelling like a fresh pine forest.

Cali may have some hot skanky girls, but none of them surf. While I was living in HB even, I think I saw 2-3 girls surfing from the south side of the pier all the way to Sunset Beach. Most of your chicks are pussies who won't get their hair wet... and I was hotter than all of them. Shame on you.
