    hey guys

    im in the states for the summer around the boston area and have some days off next week

    im thinking about trying to get to the beach for 3/4 days and getting surf lessons each day

    has anyone here surfed on the east coast around the new england area? anyone got any advice or recomendations?

    i know its probably the wrong time of year for the area and its probably going to be small but i dont mind that really i jsut want to get in the water and have a break form work

    Give it a go. I spent 25 years of my life surfing on the Right coast around Maryland/Delaware/Virginia/New Jersey. Summertime isn't the best time for waves (though friends back home have had a pretty decent summer this year) because the prevailing winds blow in a direction that doesn't make any swell for the East coast. You can get lucky though and hit it when the odd low pressure system heads offshore south of where you happen to be.
    Anyway, try it out because even a day farting around in ankle slappers beats a day spent in work!!:eek:
