Surfing USA
is not a place but a state of mind, so
they say. When you're in the surfing
mode, everything's going just right;
you're totally stoked and can't get
enough of the waves.
Californians
love the surfing lifestyle and fine
weather afforded residents all year
long. But sometimes Florida or Hawaii
are
where the waves are really the best.
Let's not fool ourselves about surfing
on the mainland. The crowds may be
massive but if the waves aren't right
for surfing, it's just a big party, not
really a surfing gig.
The capital of surfing in California is
where you want it.
Surfing is
about waking up in the morning, going to
the beach and catching some surf.
When you visit California, most the
waves are going to be fine for learning,
except in areas such as Long Beach where
there are ports but not many waves.
If you come to California searching for
waves, pick up the board, enter the
water and take a ride.
