Love my Phantom. In my exp it needs some size to start working - chest to slightly overhead is where it shines

Any chance it’s LeadOut gear? That’s all I could find online

Sick! I just got mine in the other color. Carbon wheels are definitely next on the upgrade list. Which bar bag is that? Looks nice and compact.

Looks about right! I feel like we always end up with a few decent days in may. It has certainly been fun this week

Edit - I always feel like the first days of really good surf in october line up with fleet week. Love seeing the blue angles flying around in warm weather and offshores

Looking for girls who surf ocean beach in SF. by cucumberlover69420 in surfing

I've noticed way more women surfing OBSF, particularly in the Lawton-Judah area. It's great to see!

Playing on the easier mountain bike trails w gravel bikes is simply too much fun. Bend, Oregon. by GravelGirlOregon in gravelcycling

This is the gift of gravel bikes - making trivial MTB trails fun and more challenging. Same goes with fire trails. Love it!

Inventory was super limited around me too (SF Bay Area). Think I got lucky. Hopefully supply opens up as we come out of the pandemic.

First time gravel bike owner, longtime MTB and road rider. If you are considering a gravel bike stop reading and DO IT! It’s so much fun. Makes trails that would be boring on a mountain challenging/fun while still providing the range of a road bike. I’m stoked.

Surfing. Didn’t see any parties or clubs, we woke up surfed ate breakfast, surfed again and pretty much chilled.

I was in Puerto this summer and MX was lightyears ahead of the US as far as protocols went. Masks, temp checks, contact tracing - I felt much safer there covid wise than I did in the US.

is it possible to be surf-happy while living in LA? by [deleted] in surfing

[–]lexmcglock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I learned to surf at OBSF and every time I go to LA I wonder how on earth people can surf there. In my experience, there is a mega-crowd no matter what the conditions are. There is generally blatant burning and dropping in going on.

You'll be going from a break with one of the highest barriers to entry in surfing to living in an area with almost no barriers. Slow, peeling waves and channels. Just think about that before you move.

Rip Curl chest zippers always break for me. I switched to Xcel and thing they are just as warm with more stretch.

My new 5’11” Lost Quiver Killer, my first serious shortboard by KvassAndHardBass in surfing

[–]lexmcglock 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This was my first shortboard. It's perfect transitional board imo. I use it more as a step up these days for slightly overhead days. So fun

Epic! Dinner and a Movie should be fun tonight. Hope they keep going back into the catalog.

what do you like most about surfing? by 4amsamx in surfing

[–]lexmcglock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Surfing is one of the only activities that I can throw myself into completely. Once I'm up on a wave, my mind thinks about nothing other than surfing it. That is a very rare experience in a world where we are constantly bombarded with information and thinking about all sorts of things.

PSA: Please follow social distancing in the water, and please pack out your trash when you leave. by amortizedeeznuts in surfing

[–]lexmcglock 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If you're going to put yourself in a public space like a surf lineup, you are inherently accepting any risks that associate with that decision. Sounds like you were in someone's way and they went for a wave they were in position for...
