My Own Surfing Thread!

George Greenough has an interesting house at Lennox, up above the south end. Great waves at Lennox on days Byron doesn't have much.

Surf photography has come a loong way!

Trying to bring the thread back to life....what will it take???

I posted a pic like that in the "butts" thread, and Z-man deleted it.

But I think there's more artistic merit in this one...

I agree. Something chill and pretty about that picture. Anyone surfed naked before?

Bubble gum surf wax and exposed private parts don't mix well....

Looks like the Northern CA coast, perhaps between Santa Cruz and Half Moon Bay...the sweet ladies are no doubt from Santa Cruz

Tweez....if one has never surfed naked before.....one is not a true soul surfer.

In the days before the southern part of our barrier island was raped by the condo developers.....and before the Feds built Canaveral Seashore Park....we used to surf "Secret Spot" and on occasion in the buff. It was of course a hoot!

Talk about freedom rides.....ha!

The reason that photo appeals to you - is it is appealing to your inner soul - which recognizes the concept of being a free spirit. Not everyone has the spirit, which is a common denominator amongst true soul surfers.

that's it. I have to go surfing naked. Need to find someone to go with. I am thinking somewhere warm and gentle waves. Don't want to totally wipe out when I am naked!

And the last part of your message, so true. That part hit me. You speak to me, Baz.

[Baz]

I know Tweez.....you have the spirit - and will always.....

[tweezers74]

Love to you, Baz. One of these days I am going to meet you in person. Maybe we'll ride together.

Just want to say as a flatlander, really enjoying this thread and envy those who live for it. Definitely one of the better threads! Very much a novice here and only get occasional chances when visiting family on the west coast.

Terrific photography. Late last night was surprised to see the classic Endless Summer ('66) on some cable channel. Made me think how far today's photographers and surfers have come, amazing talent and brave!!
