East Coast Weekend Session

    Camped out this weekend with my gf and her family at a little spot just outside EL, the swell was pretty epic.
    Haven't scored there since Jan this year, most of the time i was surfing alone, had my gf video me, and I took some shots too.

    The first day was decent, with clean swell in a strong SW winds, There is a point break, which was blown out, and then a small bay at the river mouth, which is sheltered from strong wind, the second day the wind had completely died away, and there was epic glassy SW swell, but by 9am onshore winds began to pick up, messing it up. scored am early solo session before the onshore. The river pumps out sand forming epic banks, that change often. this weekend there was a hectic shorey on a low tide, and epic, hollow right handers that offered barrel time before closing out.

    Heres a few shots from this weekend:
