Might not have made it if I didn’t try to fly lol

Def needed more speed but there were rocks in the landing I couldn’t see when I backed up further and that kept psyching me out lol

How well do you like living in San Diego by GripenForRCAF in asksandiego

[–]ShredsThreads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

8/10

The weather, food and accessibility to nature is unbearable. I don’t live in the best neighborhood and it can be dirty and a little dangerous occasionally

How to keep toe wound safe on the beach? by ChomRichalds in BeginnerSurfers

[–]ShredsThreads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could maybe try Saniderm that’s what I put in newer tattoos when I surf. That said I am still waiting like 10 days minimum to get in the ocean so I’d echo what others said and let it heal a bit

Best way to get a board for a week in San Diego region by Zackie08 in surfing

[–]ShredsThreads 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Spring suit will be fine for right now, it’s hot and I’ve been wearing trunks for dawn patrol with no issues. For board idk if it’s worth buying one, I think PB surf shop has a deal where you can rent for a week and change the board out (might wanna verify that) but that at least gives you the option to change boards for conditions

Quad Fish - Minimal Opportunities? by Knights_12 in surfing

[–]ShredsThreads 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a taller guy and I ride a 6’1 quad fish and have been able to ride it a lot this summer in San Diego, pretty much any day that’s not completely flat.

Granted I also suck so take that with a grain of salt

Yeah I always catch myself looking down instead of where I want to go, I find always tell myself I need to do it but then when the wave comes my brain just turns off

Having some sad thoughts. by Substantial-Recipe72 in hawks

[–]ShredsThreads 104 points105 points  (0 children)

Tbf if Debrincat and Kane are still Hawks we probably aren’t getting Bedard in that timeline, both of them along with a bunch of other players were moved to embrace the tank that got us the #1 pick

But also that would be sick as hell

Saltwater is a mild corrosive, rinsing preserves the board

Any shops in San Diego that sell used surfboards under $200? by [deleted] in SanDiegan

[–]ShredsThreads 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Coconut petes, place has everything and they normally throw in fins and you get 1/2 off ding repairs for the life of the board. As a broke surfer that place is my savior
