New England Photo Thread

[jw]

First is the crowd in between sets. First and third are mine...I think the middle one is from NESurf.com, where I go back a ways. Kind of a chaotice site, but you can find some excellent photos and good info here and there. And most of all a good crew of very talented surfers and photographers.

These are RI, by me...grainy...but can see size on first two...?

Not sure whose these are. They were on my hard disk. Cover up is supposed to be blurry. I think they're from NESurf.com where they're copyright, not that Surfer Mag is going to try to steal them or anything...

The top two are by me from RI, the third is in Maine...will get photographer's name.

Aloha,

A couple of nice cam shots from RI. It's rare to catch it like this on the cam...even though this beach can light up on the right swell. It's about noon here and I'm waiting for my ride. It looks excellent!

another one...more "real" photos to follow!

Hello,

Thought I'd post a couple from Florida. I was only kidding in the beginning with my "even florida has waves... " comment. These tow-ins at PH were posted to SurferMag BB a few years ago. Let me know if you know who took them, surfers, etc.

Again, if any other East Coasters have some pix, pls. post em if you want. Can change thread title to "East Coast Photo Thread."

I also credited individual photos throughout the thread, so you know mine aren't ALL crappy!

Not to get too side-tracked, and this will be the last non-New England from me for a while. But as I stated earlier, I learned to surf, uh...paddle, while living in San Francisco from 1990 to 1995. Any other paddle seems kind of easy, or a bit easier anyway, after even small OB. So here are a few from my old stomping grounds. They're by my associate Dennis Mcquoid, he's the shiny headed one in the photo below.

More OBSF, thanks to Dennis McQ!

From Dennis, OBSF.

I think he moved to Hawaii a few months ago. He's originally from New Jersey, so kind of an East Coast alumni. Last shot here is mine, from when I lived out there -- Nikon FM 35mm from the beach, so very tiny surfers.

These are on my site, along with a few more:

Will be adding more. I

I miss the waves in the Bay Area.

Here are a few more from my friends at Brickhouse Surf, Skate and Snow in Marblehead and Gloucester Mass. These are in Mass.

I'm not a salesman for them, but they deserve credit for all they do! And they're some of the best pix I have for my site and IMO should be seen.

I'm finally getting to organize pix and work on my site for the first time in about eight months. So this thread is a big help with that as well. Hope someone is enjoying. Maybe the thread is out of place? I'll be taking pix out there when I surf in Hawaii, and post into the main pix thread!



First two are by me in Rhode Island, third is by Guaro, Rhode Island. In the latter you can see how the wave walls up when it hits this ledge. The foam part of the wave is much "lower."
