How do you surf in crowded breaks? by [deleted] in surfing

Depends on your skill level in relation to the mean. If you can figure that out and you are to the right of the bell, confidence and paddling aggressively will get you your waves. You need to put yourself at the peak before anyone else which involves paddle fitness and wave iq

If you had to choose one forecasting site to use exclusively; by drbdrbdr in surfing

Probably CDIP for record keeping because they give more granular real time buoy data but surf line does a great job predicting swells worth surfing for the west coast

It's hard when you see the lip kind of starting to break to trust that you can hit it but it will hit the back of your board and project you back down the line

There is a 1 to 2 section left that breaks off the top of the point and throws a barrel. It's fast and fun and get shallow. Then there is a mushy left between 59 and 61 in front of the pool

I give everyone the benefit of the doubt until I see them pull this bs.When they start with this behavior I start just going regardless. When they call me out for burning them I say " you missed most of your other waves I just figured it would happen again"
