Whateva! - I've been surfing Dicks since 94 and its hardly been ruined from this posting. Its not even close to a secret. Dickies takes care of Dickies. Its extremely fickle but under certain conditions its ridable with power. About 10-20 days a year. Occasionally when everything comes together it is the best surf spot in Southern New England. this happens on average 5-10 days a year so if your not a local that knows the conditions and is able to check it regularly then your better off banking your session further north. One more point, even with the right conditions it usually closes out.
