These lefts look fucking scrumptious. To me, the snow on the ground makes it even more inviting. Throw me a Hotline five mil, booties and gloves. I'll be set. One of the most memorable sessions I ever had was in Crescent City (Cali/Oregon border) when it was snowing with a stiff offshore breeze. One of the strangest things about surfing fresh water is the buoyancy factor. No salt = less buoyancy. Bigger, thicker boards are the rule here.

You'd really need to read the book. Obviously. This shit covered EVERYTHING. It's the most information I ever gained from a book. Period, and it's only about 200 pages. It debunks Philosophy. Religion and more. "Other animals are born, seek mates, forage for food and die. That is all. But we humans – we think – are different. We are persons, whose actions are the results of their choices. Other animals pass their lives unawares, but we are conscious. Our image of ourselves is formed from our ingrained belief that consciousness, selfhood and free will are what define us as human beings, and raise us above all other creatures. In our more detached moments, we admit that this view of ourselves is flawed. Our lives are more like fragmentary dreams than the enactments of conscious selves. We control very little of what we most care about; many of our most fateful decisions are made unbeknownst to ourselves. Yet we insist that mankind can achieve what we cannot: conscious mastery of its existence. This is the creed of those who have given up an irrational belief in God for an irrational faith in mankind." Another excerpt: "But what if we give up the empty hopes of Christianity and humanism? Once we switch off the soundtrack – the babble of God and immortality, progress and humanity – what sense can we make of our lives?" In a nutshell, this book talks a lot about the reasons why we humans believe that we are special. What defines humanity and separates us from the rest of the living beings we share earth with? Most would say; conciousness, self awareness, and reason. This book explains all of that. I am not a religious person, and I still had a very hard time accepting and understanding the facts this book lays down. There were times where I would read a page over, and over and over just trying to fully saturate in the fucking knowledge the author is dropping. I'd have to go smoke a j-bird and then come back and read the same page again... and again. Like I was saying, this book flipped my perspective like a puddle of acid in the palm of my hand. Live in the fucking now. If any of you guys do decide to read this, please let me know what you thought.

LOL... FUCK YOU! There is absolutely NOTHING fierce about Concord. Never has been and never will be. Shit is a fucking joke. (Piers! Hot shit bro!)

^ Uh. No. But seriously, God fucking damnit. TKO has to be the most overrated, lame bunch of fucks to grace the graf game. Except My1. He's cool.

Sw. Fool is so up right now. So up. Proper props.

Shit is true mayn. These Seaside cats know that they have a good thing and want to keep it uncrowded. Hence the localism. It's enough bad vibes to keep most kooks out of the water. You peep that Lincoln City vid? 25-30 feet and peeling! Like I was saying, the Pacific NW is very slept on as far as surfing goes. British Columbia is off the chiznains. Tofino area... And there are good waves around pretty much every corner all the way down. Alaska and the Aleutian islands are holding as well. Keep in mind that the same exact waves which slam into Hawaii also slam into the Oregon coast. Generated by the same Aleutian storms. The main difference is the cold water and the weather. Winter is when the ocean really comes alive in the Pacific. For us, surfing is not a summer activity, as most would believe.

This book will blow your fucking mental: Changed my life.

laul. There's so many samples, just like this, used by DJ's and producers. Most of them come from old vinyls. I'm talking like 1930's old. Most of these are out of print and are only found by digging through crates at yard sales and antique stores. Instructional and educational vinyls. You're going to need a lot of luck to find out exactly who this sample is. "An object at rest, remains at rest."

Re: UCK I DON'T CARE ANYMORE I HAVE TRIED FOR YEARS. Conscious hip hop. There's nothing fucking emo about it. Seems as if any time an MC waxes poetic about anything other than riches and bitches a lot of you niggas get mad.

Ever wonder what would happen to your city if it was hit by a large nuclear payload? Click here to find out. www.carloslabs.com Pretty simple to use, type your location in the search box. Then select your weapon of choice. Hit nuke it. This one is more sophisticated: http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/gmap/hydesim.html I live in Livermore, Ca. Home of the United States largest known collection of Uranium. Lawrence Livermore and Sandia Labs. This shithole was top three on Russia's target list during the cold war due to the weapons production and scientific advancement that goes on inside the lab. So I found those websites interesting and figured I'd share. Peace

One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish. God bless Dr. Seuss.

Also, is it true that you can die from tooth infections? I did some research online when the left side of my face blew up because of infection, but couldn't find anything substantial.

The yeast in beer can cause some serious problems. If you must drink, do the hard shit. Vodka, Whiskey... etc. I wish I had dental insurance. I have a couple of abcessed teeth with major infections behind them. I've only had one wisdom tooth pulled and I'm 26. The rest of my teeth pretty much look like I've been chewing rocks for years. That or tweeking. I'm probably going to need dentures by the time I'm 35. <Blessed with bad toofs.

Fullers in big Sur. This 'used' to be a secret. Not anymore... so I don't feel too bad about posting on it. It's still very hard to find. Even though it is visible from Highway 1. And the 2'000 foot cliff you have to hike down weeds out the pussies. EPIC south swell spot. Shit holds up to like, 20 feet. Breaks right into the fucking cliff. I've had mad tube time here. Random side note: About a week ago I'm walking down the trail to this place and I saw a plant trees streak on a piece of driftwood. Nigga is up in the most cutty of cuts. Dude must surf.

Yeah Fletch was one of the first to start pulling all kinds of airs with a clean style. The advancement of skating and snowboarding have really pushed surfing to an entirely new level. For a while shit was getting stale, it was all about tubes. Now you see kids boosting all over the place. Hope this flick works: ^Seaside at about head high. Goofy footer's heaven. Shit gets brutal at double overhead and will hold even the biggest of swells. Whoever took this flick is lucky to have lived to tell about it. I'm not kidding, at all, when I talk about the Seaside locals. Fucking Oregon meth heads combined with that lumberjack mentality. Now I carry a spare OR license plate that I switch out whenever I travel up that way. No more waxed windows :lol: :D

lol, get the fuck out of here. Act like Surf Ninjas aint your favorite movie. .... That Rodeo Flip ... Kelly Slater pulled it off years ago. Flea, Ratboy, Barney and a few other SC loc's have been pulling moves like that for a while now. Shit that most kids can't even do on a skateboard. Shovits, kickflips. Not easy on a 5'10. Still a dope move though. About Seaside; It is the best left in the US. As well as one of the best left points in the world. The reason it's so slept on? Cold water, sharks, and locals. The first time I surfed Seaside somebody slashed all four of my tires and waxed my windshield. It's not a good idea to show up with Cali plates on your car. I'll find flicks later. Mitch, if you're talking about checking the lake for waves- It is very rare for there to be any kind of surfable swell near Chicago. It does happen though. Some of the more frequented spots are in Wisconsin (Racine and north). Basically you need to watch the weather- wherever a sustained wind is blowing on the lake- shoot for the opposite side. There is of course, a lot more to it than that. But explaining how waves are formed is probably best left to Wiki. Fetch is the key word here. CR: Thanks! I ran up the coast, chasing that South too. Shit was money! Got flicks of Fullers in Big Sur that I'll find later. Double overhead and offshore... first time I've ever been in the water with Orcas. I'll be honest and say I'd rather be in the water with Sharks than Killer Whales... fuuuuck. I only saw three of 'em, my boy getting photos on the cliff said there were at least eight in the pod.

Enough of this replying to my own thread type shit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bycangO4MQ8 Check it at 1:21. My boy Virostko, aka Flea, gets bombed on one of the heaviest waves ever. Fool decided its a good idea to rock a life vest... bad move. Nigga got held for TWO WAVES after he went under. Talk about life support. He lives. FYI, his lifevest was ripped from his body and his board was ripped from his ankle/leash. He surfaced about 2 minutes after going under-water and skin-dog swooped with the ski. - Pending another set. We cracked budwiesers on the boat and he told me he hit bottom. This is Mavericks. HMB, about 20 minutes south of San Fransisco. This spot is about 60 feet deep. Nigga bounced off of the bottom- came up for air, and then took two more on the dome before he was snatched up by the ski. Imagine surfing Niagra falls x 3. We ran through the Volcom house @ Pipe in Hawaii and they had never ever, had the privy to chill with such gnarly folks. Respect. Out drank and out surfed. Big up SC.

For those cats who thought the NW didn't have surfable spots. These are my folks, Peter Mel, Virostko, Zach Whormhoudt, and Skin-Dog paddling into the Lincoln City Reef in Oregon. Santa Cruz representing, as usual. The Jet skiis are there, but only for life-saving emergencys. Keep in mind they ripped this contest after a full WEEK of drinking, skating (Oregon has amazing skateparks) and general debauchery. Oregon has hot bitches and good herb to boot. No sales tax and you cant even pump your own gas! Love it! Funny, because the NW is fully slept on for us Cali kids. There are spots like this all over Washington and up through British Columbia. I love cold water. Not just cold, I'm talking that full-on, snow on the beach, mind-numbing type shit.

Incline, right near the same spot I hit. It's only do-able on a longboard of course... However... its still pretty fucking cool to hit up the bar with a board on top of your car and be like "yeah" I surfed the lake today. Bitches, you may buy me a beer and hop on my cock later. You need BIG winds to pull off a surfable swell with fetch as small as Tahoe is. Tahoe, Superior and Michigan are pretty much the only lakes to ever be surfed in the world. Take it for what its worth.

Word, and thanks. This is pretty much the only thread I've ever started per 12oz. I couldnt get a few of the last posts flicks going.... working on it. Lincoln City has a dope skatepark and VERY dope waves... got some coooooool ass flicks. The Great Lakes do get some swell. It's wierd surfing a lake... lack of sharks is a plus. Surfed Lake Tahoe once as well. 4-5 feet and peeling off of a boat dock on the south-side. ^lake michigan. North of Racine, WI.

More: Cyclops . NSW AU Cyclops can only be accessed by boat. Still a fairly new wave on the surfing world’s radar, its got probably the heaviest, thickest lips in the world. A cool 7 hours south of Perth. If you can find it... good luck. Considered unsurfable by most. The "Potato Patch". = San Fransisco, Cali. About 15 miles outside of the Golden Gate Bridge. Huge open ocean swells slam into Duxbury Reef. Once thought to be impossible, niggas like Grant Washburn have paddled into it. No pictures to do it justice. MAJOR SHIPPING HAZARD. Yet folks like us surf it. Nelscott Reef . Lincoln City, Oregon If you have to ask, you don't need to know. Again, Santa Cruz cats came through and showed the locals how its done. Waimea . HI, US Jaws aka Peahi @ Maui . HI, US Sunset . HI, US Pipe . HI, US ^Along with another hundred or so, played the fuck out Hawaii spots. < Shits tired.:scrambled:

Real talk mayn. Kid broke his back and STILL GOES.

Tripping, son. We're as adept on land as anybody. The fuck, you from Wiscanson or something? Even they got the great lakes, and believe it or not, Lake Michigan has waves! I surfed in Chicago during a windstorm once! You seem to be drowning in your own spew. I'll toss you some floaty wings chump. Peace.

Yeah. That, and they don't, generally know how to skate. Which seems to be the main fucking thing in a SKATE thread. Also. I've never, ever, seen a BMXr rip a pool like my nigga Cardiel does. Peace.
